Abstract

Air pollution has a diversified harmful effect on human beings. The changes occurring in the environment and weather have hostile results on flora and fauna. The main reason for the cause of air pollution is the excessive use of energy resources such as natural calamities like volcanic eruptions and forest fires which pollute the air, but the occurrence is less. Hence there is an increase in the level of pollutants in the air as there is a release of pollutants in air. Most countries in Asia are highly influenced by highly concentrated flammable gases. The major air pollutants accountable for affecting human health are smoke and carbon monoxide, Sulfur dioxide, nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and many more. But in recent scenarios, IoT has profoundly overtaken the situation in control as it is used in pollution monitoring systems, e-health, smart cities, etc. Internet of things (IoT) interconnects devices, and the connected devices can communicate wirelessly. It mainly consists of sensors, processors, a connectivity, and a cloud server, whereas sensors use to sense the required information of various air pollutants The processor processes the sensed data from the sensor and communicates it to the server using the internet. And the whole process of sensing the required information, communicating the information securely and efficiently done with the help of the internet, analyzing data, and then taking appropriate action, which can be like shutting down the engine, are some of the main tasks performed.
