Abstract

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a toxic gas produced by partial combustion of various carbon based fuels. It can cause headache, nausea, vomiting and confusion for humans and critical to environment.  Hence this work finds a solution to measure and analyze the level of Carbon monoxide emission in the vehicle used for transportation on roads. This system uses MQ-7 gas sensor to track the content of Carbon monoxide that act as a pollutant in the atmospheric air. MQ-7 sensor is used to measure the carbon monoxide level and it intimates to the vehicle. If the carbon monoxide level is present, the message will be sent automatically to the pollution control board and display the release of this level from the vehicle. As a result the office has the authority to file the case against the vehicle that produce the over pollution. MQ-7 sensor measures the current value of the emitting Carbon monoxide from every vehicle and WIFI modules are connected with every raspberry pi-3 and it will send the message to the PHB based IOT monitoring. It can be used in globally for monitoring of pollution.
