    Drinking water is critical for the wellbeing and prosperity of all people and creatures because water play major role in all living beings and most danger disease are caused by water and it is our duty to provide clean and safe water and also to monitor the pollution level in water it is additionally essential for farming utilization for good product yielding and natural way of life linkage wellbeing issues. With over 200 children dying per day due to unsafe water, drinking water crisis is ranked one on the global risk by World Economic Forum, 2015. This paper presents an easy and comprehensive methodology is microcontroller sensor based system continuous observing and pollution recognition for both drinking and non-drinking water dissemination frameworks and in addition for customer locales

    Automatic Overhead Water Tank Cleaning System: A Review and an Approach

    Full text link
    Aim of this paper is to develop a mechanical system for cleaning domestic cylindrical water tank. The mechanical system includes two main mechanisms which are rack and pinion gear mechanism and reciprocating four bar linkage mechanism. The rack and pinion arrangement is used to move whole mechanical system up and down for cleaning the cylindrical tank. The rack is fixed on the motor and the four-bar mechanism is attached to the motor shaft. PVC brushes are attached to the ends of the four-bar linkage. Four bar linkage is made in such a way that it can be adjusted according to inside diameter of the tank. When the motor is started the linkage rotates and with the help of brushes, cleaning of wall and base of tank takes place. The purpose of this project is to reduce the human efforts and to avoid the chemical influence on health of person entering the tank for cleaning. In this modern world, cleaning of overhead tanks manually is a tedious job. To overcome this we have aimed at tackling the disadvantages of cleaning overhead tanks, so an automatic system overhead tank cleaning is designed to provide high safety, high efficiency, less time for cleaning and to avoid environmental pollution problems. Purpose of this paper is to clean domestic cylindrical water tank with the help of mechatronics system. The mechatronics system consists of a grooved gear rod attached to two arms with brushes at ends. The two arms are connected to the gear rod by nut. By rotating the gear rod, the up and down motion of the two arms is achieved. The gear rod is rotated with the help of a D.C gear motor. The main grooved shaft is powered by an A.C motor. The motor and the shaft are connected by a rubber belt. The clockwise rotation of the main shaft will make the arms move and vice versa. The whole operation is controlled by a circuit consisting of relay switches, buttons, and PIC microcontroller. The number of times for the operation to repeat can be fed into the circuit. The achievement of this project is reduction of cost and manual labour because there will be harmful diseases for the person who will go inside and it will affect the health as well as the other human being who consumes water from the tank

    A Review and an Approach of Flying Electric Generators as Alternate Source of Energy

    This paper presents a review of flying electric generators which are used to harness kinetic energy in powerful, persistent high altitude winds. It has been found that FEGs could give individual output of up to 40MW. It is a lighter wind turbine that rotates about a horizontal axis in response to wind, generating electrical energy. This electrical energy is transferred down for immediate use, or to a set of batteries for later use, or to the power grid. This paper presents the critical analysis of existing literature which is relevant to flying electric generator Though, the literature consists of a lot many research contributions, but, here, we have analyzed some important research and review papers. The existing approaches are categorized based on the basic concepts involved in the mechanisms. The emphasis is on the concepts used by the concerned authors, the database used for experimentations and the performance evaluation parameters. Their claims are also highlighted. Finally, the findings are summarized related to the studied and analyzed research papers. Paper concludes with the motivation behind identified problem

    This Project is required to discover the situation of fault in underground cable lines from the bottom station to the exact location in kilometer with the help of PIC Microcontroller (PIC18f877a). In the geographical area the line runs in underground rather than overhead lines. Whenever the fault occurs in underground cable it is hard to discover the exact location of the fault for repairing that cable. The projected system finds precise location of faults. This system uses PIC Microcontroller and regulated power supply. Here the present sensing circuits are created with a set of resistors unit interfaced to PIC Microcontroller in order to assist of the ADC to provide digital signals to the microcontroller representing the length of cable in kilometers. The occurrence of fault is made by using the set of resistors of 1kilo ohm. The relays are controlled by the relay driver IC (ULN2003A). A LCD display is connected to the microcontroller to display the Fault. In case of fault, the voltage across resistors changes accordingly and that change in voltage is fed to ADC to develop precise digital value from base station in kilometers. GSM SIM-800 is additionally connected to the PIC Microcontroller and it discovers the fault and send SMS on the user’s mobile.   &nbsp

    With the development of electronic components so that it can be seen that technological progress is very rapid, the latest innovations are needed in utilizing these technological developments, this can be implemented in the technology of making automatic toilet tools that are very useful for the blind. The toilet is the place most frequented by everyone. However, there are things that are not very easy for the blind to use toiet, due to the factor of not being able to see so that they have difficulty in opening the toilet door and flushing water in the closet automatically, so there is a need for an automatic system and providing information provided in the form of audio sound that there are users of the toilet, In the manufacture of smart toilet automatic tools that can help users among the blind, called smart because it can open the door automatically and turn on the audio sound information and can release water automatically with a dc water pump motor, this is because it uses PIR and infrared sensors as a detector of the presence or absence of toilet users controlled by Arduino Uno, if there is a toilet user, Arduino Uno will process and command the audio will provide information in the form of sound and Motor DC water pump releases water automatically, then if the user has left the toilet and the infrared sensor no longer detects, then Motor DC water pump does not release water. After some analysis and testing, the results show that all functions run as expected. This smart toilet system can be implemented in an actual toilet without having to change the previous conditions at a small cost
