Abstract

Air quality monitoring systems can be used in any place like office, home, industries, mines etcin offices the air quality decreases due to the constant use of devices like PCs, laptops, printers release a lot of CO2 and very minute quantities of other harmful gases like CFCs In places like coal mines specific harmful gases like CO, H2S are released which can cause death even with very less exposure. They can be used in Hospitals, ICUs to monitor the air for particles of any infectious diseases and also in Agriculture to check for harmful particulates. They can be attached to devices like air purifiers, vents, exhaust fans to automatically purify the air in a place. The MQ135 sensor provides the PPM which is in our surroundings, MQ2 CO sensor and MQ7 gives a signal if CO or any flammable gases are present. Node MCU is a cheap module which has WIFI built into it. 2 Node MCUs are used so that they can connect wirelessly as WIFI server and client and enable the wireless connection of sensors and LEDs which will represent door exhaust fans etc., Thing speak will be used to upload the data into cloud.
