Development of VOC Monitoring System for Newly Painted Buildings

In Today's developing world with new houses and buildings which are constructed, a lot of paint is required for it, which leads to harmful emissions in the surroundings that is VOC. For instance, the construction of infrastructure is increasing day -by-day all around the world. Also, Multiple materials are required such as cement, concrete, bricks, and so on. However, to make it look like more alluring paint is required for this purpose, because nowadays, people are more attracted to charming things. Therefore, paints are used to make houses more attractive. In contrast, these paints release harmful toxic emissions in the surroundings that are VOCs. These toxic substances can cause long-term damage or acute. So, to prevent this problem we are planning to build a monitoring system which measures the harmful fumes in the newly painted buildings. This system is proposed for monitoring the VOC like Toluene, formaldehyde, benzene, and Methane. To measure these VOCs., we are using MS 1100. This sensor will sense the fumes and the output will be measured in parts per million which will be given for signal conditioning. The output of signal conditioning is given to Analog to Digital convertor (ADC) which converts analog output in the Digital form. The output will be displayed on the screen and if the range exceeds the specified limit, then the buzzer will turn ON. This prevents the person from entering the house or building. This way we can prevent health problems caused by these emissions
