IoT is the technology of the future that is impacting industrial growth in the most significant way possible. Whether fleet industry, supply chain, chemical, oil, and gas, or any other, every industry is availing huge benefits by integrating advanced features of the Internet of Things and simplifying their overall processing.
IoT-based solutions, when added with the environmental assets provide improved ambiance through real-time monitoring of the surroundings. This being one of the key benefits of integrating IoT with the environment ensures a better approach towards improving the environmental conditions.
IoT is a sensor-based technology, which upon installing the advanced sensor devices at appropriate places benefits the residents in numerous ways. These benefits include:
-
Effective Air Monitoring
In closed spaces, the advanced sensor devices get installed in the desired areas, which work automatically. They instantly detect the presence of particulate matter or air pollutants in the air and trigger notifications on smartphones at once. This enables the authorities to analyze the situation and act accordingly. Instant notifications allow the managers to monitor the air quality and effectively handle the situation. The notifications are sent through SMSs alerts or push messages on their smart devices so that they don't miss out on anything and keep the surroundings fresh enough for people to survive.
-
Toxic Gas Detection
The IoT-powered air quality monitoring system is well-equipped with advanced sensor devices and gateway connectivity that is functioned to detect the presence of toxic gases within the premises. The solution is interlinked with the smart device of the user and allows him 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.
-
Temperature and Humidity Measurement
IoT technology is an effective concept that contributes to measuring the temperature and humidity ratio within any industrial premises. It helps the authorities in maintaining a proper ambiance required for the workers to work under certain environmental conditions by keeping real-time control on the IoT-powered solution. The temperature and humidity monitoring helps analyze the situation and maintains a favorable environment as required. Moreover, in the case of mining industries, an IoT-powered air quality monitoring system detects the oxygen levels, thereby keeping the employees safe in case of any decrease in the levels. It allows them to evacuate the premises as soon as there is any decrease in the oxygen levels.
-
Human Health
Whether closed or open premises, human health gets affected by the 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. This also impacts their health and reduces the chances of occurring any health issues by maintaining a moderate ambiance or as required. Hence, IoT-powered solutions provide better services to the industrialists, which in turn, provides better services to their customers. It creates a positive impact on human health by eliminating unwanted air pollutants and particulate matter by allowing the authorities to take decisions according to the situation.
An IoT-powered air quality monitoring system consists of sensor devices and gateway connectivity that offers a data-driven approach to monitor air quality. The solution is fully equipped with necessary devices and advanced techniques to ensure fresher surroundings free from air pollutants and other toxic components spread in the air. It can be easily installed in appropriate places from where it triggers the authorities to take necessary actions whenever required. It is a must-have for the industrial premises to enhance the safety of the employees and keep them healthy under different working conditions.
