LPG Leakage Detection System

Abstract

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is widely used for domestic and
industrial applications, but leakage can pose serious safety
hazards, including fire accidents and health risks. This project
aims to develop an LPG leakage detection system that enhances
safety by detecting gas leaks and providing timely alerts. The
system employs an MQ-6 gas sensor to detect the presence of
LPG in the air. When leakage is detected, an alert mechanism is
triggered using a buzzer, LED indicators, and an SMS
notification via a GSM module for remote awareness. The
system is controlled by a microcontroller (such as Arduino or
Raspberry Pi) for efficient operation. This project offers a cost
effective and reliable solution to prevent gas related accidents,
ensuring safety in households and industries. The project
contributes to fire prevention, safety automation, and smart
home security. It is cost-effective, reliable, and scalable for
various applications, making it a crucial innovation in
household and industrial safety systems.
