Water Pollution: Psychological effect on human health & live reporting using IoT Technology
Main Article Content
Abstract
India is a country which is named after the river Indus which represents a rich culture well connected with water
bodies [1]. It is the nation with 18% of the world’s population and it also accounts for 4% of water resources available
worldwide. The 4% water for 18% population provides only 1720 cubic meters of fresh water per person every year [2]. The
biggest threat to water resources in India is water pollution. The most immediate and extensive reason for water pollution in
India is sewage and its improper treatment. The industrial, agriculture, medical, radioactive, and solid wastes are directly
dumped into rivers which causes the maximum damage to the quality of water present in different water bodies. The biggest
sewage producing cities in India produce 38, 354 Million Litres per Day (MLD) sewage but out of that around 30.78% only
gets treated under Urban Sewage Treatment (UST) and the remaining meets the freshwater to make it highly polluted and
poisonous for human and aquatic creatures [3]. Our proposed system is an initiative to identify the quality of water using pH
level of water using high precision pH analyzers and report this content using worldwide coverage connectivity medium,
Internet of Things (IoT). Internet of things. The system proposed is a portable device that is linked with a Wi-Fi-based IoT
system to report and update the quality of water present in any water body where it is planted. The live reporting can be
broadcasted world-wise to aware about their water body is safe to use or not. This can also alarm the public against any
dangerous chemical mix-up with water and save their lives.
