Waste contamination in Water — A Real-time Water Quality Monitoring System using IoT

Groundwater is one of the major sources of drinking water in most of the countries. Dumping of waste in landfill leads to the contamination of the underground water, which is termed as Leachate, which contains harmful organic and inorganic matters which makes the underground water unusable for consumption. This project proposes an IoT based water quality monitoring system and alerts the concerned authorities if the consumed groundwater is polluted. The proposed system uses various sensors, Node MCU and is integrated with cloud infrastructure for database storage and for real-time dashboard maintenance of the measured parameters.
