IoT Based Smart Gas Management System

Abstract

The problem of gas leakage and fire is often encountered in our day-to-day life. LPG, Liquified Petroleum Gas, is highly flammable gas used as fuel in heating appliances. Leakage of this gas raises the risk of building fire, suffocation or an explosion. The mentioned problem can be solved with the development of reliable techniques to detect gas leakage. As soon as gas leakage will be detected, user will be notified via SMS and call so that he/she can turn off gas valve from anywhere in his work place. The issue of flame and fire at kitchen can be monitored with the help of fire sensor. The buzzer starts beeping whenever fire is detected. In addition to these, it is often found that a person forgets to book gas cylinder due to his/her busy schedule. The main aim of this paper is to design an IOT based Smart Gas Management System that will be able to detect gas leakage and fire. With the help of load sensor, automatic booking of a gas cylinder is also facilitated. Notification is sent to the booking agency to book a gas cylinder whenever load cell detects that the weight of gas cylinder has reached below a threshold value. At the same time, user will be notified about gas cylinder going empty.
