Based
So this gonna be based on Internet Of Things, you guys are waiting to know about it right? Here we go that's an Smart harvesting system. Present we all have a harvesting system which is compulsory as government rules.
But this is not going to be just a harvesting system this is a smart harvesting system based on my project I have decided to give detailed information to you guys.
Think "You get a notification to your mobile when rain starts and it will tell you whether the rain causes flood or not" that is awesome right? After you get notification you will notice and do the precautions.
Come on lets see how it happens. Needs just few low cost materials only.
Rainwater harvesting is collected in the containers before raining down to ground level and collecting it. The rainforest can be used for irrigation, not only for drinking water and livestock, but also for the storage of rocks in the ground.
Rainwater harvesting is a method from the roofs of buildings. India gets the most elevated precipitation among nations practically identical to its size.
Its landmass has perfect and enduring waterways confusing it – especially through the northern part. In any case, the opposite side of the story is this: some piece of India has kept on encountering dry spell conditions with a disturbing consistency.
The waterways have been going away and getting dirtied. The underground water tables are contracting quickly. On the off chance that water administration isn't agreed the significance it merits, the nation can especially hope to wind up in grieved waters as the years move by.
In this project, a smart centralized rain water harvesting project is using to save the rain water process and using more sensors (rain water sensor, ultra sonic sensor),and Arduino. Arduino is the micro controller. This project main point of use to rain water saving.
Working:
This project can be developed using the Arduino micro controller which is economy based one and its performance is high. For this project the Ultra sonic sensor, stepper motor, water level sensor and the rain water sensor has been connected along with the Arduino micro controller.
Whenever the rain water has been drizzled on the rain water sensor, a door attached to the big pit will be opened and the compound gate around the pit has been raised up in order to save the human error by mistakenly fell down in to the Pit.
An ultra sonic sensor and the water level senor which computes the water level stored in the pit as a information and all the information generated by the sensor has been forwarded to the MC board with the help of GSM Module along with the Internet.
In current Scenario the water is one of the most considerable problems for the human beings. According to the report 72% of water has been mixed westerly to the sea and drainage and 42% of people who have been struggled a lot for collecting the drinking water by walk to a long distance.
This project is designed to reduce the water problem by 39%.
The main benefit of this project is, it is more efficient than the home based rain water saving system. And another main advantage is the pit will observe the rain water even though it is enormous. If this project is exist at the time of Chennai flood it would saved the people by maximum.
Also the project has been placed wherever the water has been stored in street or some other places.
Hardware Tools:
- POWER SUPPLY
- ATMEGA MICROCONTROLLER
- GSM
- ULTRASONIC SENSOR
- WATER LEVEL SENSOR
- LCD DISPLAY
Features of Rainwater Harvesting:
- The cost of recharge to sub-surface reservoir is lower than surface reservoirs.
- The aquifer serves as a distribution system also.
- No land is wasted for storage purpose and no population displacement is involved.
- Ground water is not directly exposed to evaporation and pollution.
- Storing water under ground is environment friendly.
- It increases the productivity of aquifer.
- It reduces flood hazards.
- Effects rise in ground water levels.
- Mitigates effects of drought.
- Reduces soil erosion.
Essential things for a Smart City:
- To overcome the inadequacy of surface water to meet our demands.
- To arrest decline in ground water levels.
- To enhance availability of ground water at specific place and time and utilize rain water for sustainable development.
- To increase infiltration of rain water in the subsoil this has decreased drastically in urban areas due to paving of open area.
- To improve ground water quality by dilution.
- To increase agriculture production.
- To improve ecology of the area by increase in vegetation cover etc.
Just a interest and effort took by me to spread the information to you guys. Please do change to smart harvesting system as it is must needed for a better tomorrow.
