Abstract:

Water is one of our most fundamental necessities and is required for human life. Water contamination is the most serious concern for green globalization. This polluted water can cause food poisoning, diarrhea, short-term gastrointestinal disorders, respiratory infections, skin problems, and other major health concerns. Water pollution is responsible for approximately 40% of all global fatalities, highlighting the critical need for communities to provide access to clean drinking water. Prioritizing the safety of drinking water is essential, and real-time monitoring of its quality plays a vital role in protecting public health. By actively tracking water quality, we can swiftly identify and address potential hazards, thereby safeguarding our communities and ensuring access to safe drinking water.To ensure the safety of drinking water, it is important to follow proper sanitation and testing protocols. This real-time water quality monitoring (WQM) system is a low-cost and efficient method for monitoring drinking water quality that uses the Internet of Things (IoT). This paper presents a detailed review of a low-cost, real-time water quality monitoring system. The Internet of Things-based system, which comprises multiple sensors, measures water's physical and chemical characteristics. Temperature, PH, turbidity, and total dissolved solids may all be determined in water. Sensor data may be read and processed by the Arduino microcontroller. Finally, the sensor data may be accessed online using the Wi-Fi module. Real-time water quality monitoring is critical for reducing water pollution. Most treatments for mitigating water pollution are biological and lab-based, requiring significant time and money. The main contribution of this paper is to present the research progress, highlight recent innovations and identify interesting and challenging areas that can be explored in future studies.
