Development of Cost-Effective Water Quality Monitoring for Potable Drinking Water Using IoT

One of the main substances that significantly affects ecosystems is water. Unfortunately, with increased urbanization, sewage, abstraction of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture, which contaminate water, is now widely exploited. To monitor quality of the water across wide region, like rivers, lakes, or hydroponics, it is thus required to install a system. According to the state of world today, IoT and distant sensing methods are utilized in a variety of study fields to monitor, collect and analyze data from distant locations. The proposed system-DCWQM includes a wide variety of sensors interfaced to ESP-32 for measuring physical and chemical parameters of drinking water. This method allows analyzing of data that has been posted online through Blynk App and the real-time assessment of water body quality.
