Abstract
Air pollution has become one of the major problems for human health across the globe. Indoor air pollution poses more risk than outdoor air pollution, since the human body is more exposed to the inside. It refers to the contamination of indoor air that causes harmful health problems. To purify the polluted air, the air purifier is a main necessity. In this Internet of Things (IoT) project, we have created an air purifier that purifies the indoor air by passing it through the High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter and Ultraviolet light. The microcontroller used is the NodeMCU based on the ESP8266 WiFi enabled chip. Two MQ135 air quality sensors used to monitor the change and calculate the efficiency of the purified air. IoT customization eases the manual work of changing the purifier manually every time by providing a platform that operates on the mobile phone via Wi-Fi where the user can operate it accordingly. It provides an equivalent grade of services at a very moderate cost that is affordable even for the average person and can provide real time analytics. The proposed system is capable for providing hands-on practical operations, which enables more exciting possibilities in IoT based automation systems.
