Real-Time Based Drinking Water Quality Monitoring and Contamination Detection System Using Low cost Sensor Network
Abstract
Finally, algorithms for fusing online multi sensor measurements at local level are developed to assess the water contamination risk. Experiments are performed to evaluate and validate these algorithms on intentional contamination events of various concentrations of escherichia coli bacteria and heavy metals (arsenic). Experimental results indicate that this inexpensive system is capable of detecting these high impact contaminants at fairly low concentrations. The results demonstrate that this system satisfies the online, in-pipe, low deployment-operation cost, and good detection accuracy criteria of an ideal early warning system.
