Milk Adulteration Monitoring

Milk is the most consumed liquid food which is rich in nutrients suitable for any age group of people. Good quality raw milk should be free from abnormal color, odor, acidity, free of chemicals, and much more. It is commercially sold both by local vendors and supermarkets. Due to its wide consumption, certain adulterations are added to increase its yield which causes serious health problems to the consumer. So, it is essential to check the quality of the milk before consumption and provide restriction to the number of adulterations. These adulterants decrease the nutritional value of milk and could also cause serious health problems. In order to address this socioeconomic issue, we have implemented a Milk Quality Monitoring System using an ATmega328 microcontroller interfaced with multiple sensors which analyses the quality of milk. Various parameters are also measured and classified. Finally, the output is displayed on the LED screen. This solution primarily addresses the problem faced by small dairy units and individuals in monitoring the quality. As an outcome of the process many hazardous diseases and other side effects are prevented.
