Benefits of IoT-Based Air Quality Monitoring System
The state of our world and the general quality of #air that nature gives has been on the decline, the average man is familiar with the term ‘global warming and the ripple effects across all spheres of life. This phenomenon has left our air quality in a state of degradation, this is more so for cities due to carbon emissions from industries and urban transportation. It is therefore imperative to take the necessary steps to combat this, hence IoT-based #smart monitoring.?
IoT-based #monitoring analyzes air toxicity levels and gives relevant insights into air quality with regard to spatial and temporal differences.?
Benefits of IoT-Based Ambient Monitoring System
IoT-based monitoring systems can be said to be distributed sensors, wireless connectivity, edge computing and visibility tools that monitor conditions, processes and equipment to track health and/or prevent events and failures that can harm the environment.
IoT devices can be used in detecting environmental conditions such as cold, heat, and moisture. They include sensors or wireless communications in measuring, detecting, and observing different environmental conditions at different locations. The benefits of #IoT-Based Ambient Monitoring include the following:
Advanced sensor devices get installed in enclosed spaces in desired areas, these sensors instantly detect the presence of particulate matter or air pollutants in the air and trigger notifications on smartphones at once. This enables designated authorities to analyze the situation and act accordingly. Instant #notifications allow managers to monitor air quality and toxicity levels and effectively handle the situation. The notifications are sent through SMS alerts or push notifications on smart devices to keep abreast of the state of things and to keep the air clean enough for people’s health.?
For instance, Nitro Network has developed? IoT-based technology specifically equipped to handle this: the AM104/AM107. It is a compact indoor ambience monitoring sensor for the measurement of #temperature, humidity, light, #co2 concentration, TVOC, barometric pressure and motion. Data from this will be shown on the E-ink screen in real-time, which allows easy monitoring of the indoor environment and comfort. The AM104/AM107 is tailored to suit offices, stores, classrooms, hospitals, etc which makes it the perfect fit for large enclosed spaces?
IoT technology is an effective concept that contributes to measuring the temperature and humidity ratio that helps the authorities to maintain the proper #ambience required for workers to work under certain environmental conditions by keeping real-time control via the IoT-powered solution. The temperature and #humiditycontrol monitoring helps analyze the situation and maintains a favourable environment as required. A case study of this is the mining industry. IoT-powered #airquality monitoring systems detect the oxygen and CO2 levels thereby keeping the employees safe in case of any decrease in the levels. It gives advance notifications and allows occupants to evacuate the premises as soon as there is a decrease in oxygen levels. Our Dragino Temperature and Humidity sensor (LHT65N) is the optimal fit to effectively carry this out.?
The IoT-powered air quality monitoring system is well-equipped with advanced sensor devices and gateway connectivity that is built to detect the presence of toxic gases within the premises. The solution is interlinked with the smart device of the user and allows them to take immediate actions in case of disasters. Thus, an IoT-powered system is an essential add-on in the industry to reduce the chances of gas explosions, fire hazards, and other naturally occurring calamities. The industry managers have complete control over the IoT solution and can take appropriate actions as soon as they receive emergency triggers on their devices, thus reducing the maintenance and operational costs of the industry.
Human #health is impacted by an increase in air pollutants or particulate matter. Thus, installing an air quality monitoring system helps monitor the presence of #pollutants, resulting in better environmental conditions for humans to reside. The data collected from air quality monitoring helps in assessing the impacts caused by poor air quality on public health and helps us understand the mortality rate of any location due to air pollution. We can also assess and compare the short-term and long-term diseases/disorders which are a result of air pollution. The data collected can help authorities devise measures for the protection of the environment and human health and of all #livingorganisms.
Many times, the buildup of chemicals and harmful particulates in the air is due to a ventilation issue. Sometimes, this can be just as simple as opening a window to let the contaminated air ventilate out, such as when smoke starts to form when cooking something in a kitchen. However, with an air quality monitoring device you can determine if your air quality is suffering due to ventilation or HVAC issues in your facility. An integrated solution includes all the critical air quality parameters such as PM2.5, PM10, CO, CO2, SO2, NO, NO2, O3, Noise, Light, #UV, Temperature, and Humidity.?
With an air quality monitoring device, such as the many options available in our marketplace, you can ensure your choice of space is well-ventilated to ensure you have the right balance of air quality parameters for healthy living.
An IoT-powered air quality monitoring system consists of sensor devices and gateway connectivity that offers a data-driven approach to monitoring air quality. Ambience Monitoring Devices are fully equipped to ensure healthier atmospheres free from air pollutants and toxic components in the air. They can be easily installed in appropriate places and are equipped to notify the designated authorities to take necessary actions when required. It is a must-have for both the industrial premises to enhance the #safety of the employees and individuals to keep a healthy atmosphere whether at home or workspace.?
Nitro Network is building a decentralized private communication network powered by IoT combined with LoRaWAN and 3G/4G/5G.
