چکیده شامل:
Since the onset of the industrial revolution, there has been a steady change in the composition of the atmosphere mainly due to the combustion of fossil fuels used for the generation of energy and transportation and complex interaction between natural and anthropogenic environmental conditions. With the increase in urbanization and industrialization and due to poor control on emissions and little use of catalytic converters, a great amount of particulate and toxic gases are produced. This causes serious health problems for all citizens in metropolitan cities. Air pollution is a major environmental health problem affecting the developing and the developed countries alike. The effects of air pollution on health are very complex as there are many different sources and their individual effects vary from one to the other. It is not only the ambient air quality in the cities but also the indoor air quality in the rural and the urban areas that are causing concern. In fact in the developing world the highest air pollution exposures occur in the indoor environment. Air pollutants that are inhaled have serious impact on human health affecting the lungs and the respiratory system; they are also taken up by the blood and pumped all round the body. These pollutants are also deposited on soil, plants, and in the water, further contributing to human exposure.
The objective of this research work is to monitor air pollution on roads and track vehicles which cause pollution over a specified limit. This thesis work proposes the use of Internet of Things (IoT) to address the problem. This work aims to monitor air pollution anytime anywhere with integration of wireless sensor networks (WSN), geographical information system (GIS), Electrochemical Toxic Gas Sensors and the use of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tagging system and Arduino Uno technology. - سال انتشار: پنج شنبه, 11 دی 1348
