Abstract
Now a day’s lot of home fires have been taking place frequently due to the leakage of gases such as LPG, etc. The LPG is highly inflammable and it can easily cause explosion. Liquefied petroleum gas consists of butane and propane. Its versatile nature enables it to get used in various needs like industrial fuel, domestic fuel etc. Most of the fire accidents are caused due to poor quality regulators, human careless and failing to turn off regulators when they are unused. Therefore, the detection of gas detection system is essential. This paper presents the gas detections model using Arduino UNO on the basis of IOT (internet of things). The gas sensor is used to identify the smell of gas leakage. LCD is turned on, when the gas gets leaked. If gas leakage takes place, both the LCD and GSM modem will be turned ON. With the help of GSM modem, messages notifying gas leakage will be send as SMS to user. Then user can take a proper action to avoid any incidents from happening. To avoid fire accidents due to gas leakage, this proposed gas leakage system using IoT has been developed and presented in this paper.
