Additional Parameter Sensors Integration and Data Acquisition in Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems for Environmental Compliance

Environmental monitoring is essential for maintaining legal compliance and protecting public health. The crucial need for improved industrial emission monitoring to satisfy strict environmental regulations is addressed by sensors integration and data acquisition in continuous emission monitoring systems for environmental compliance. In order to guarantee accuracy and monitoring, the main goal of this research is to create an integrated system that combines sensors and reliable data acquisition technologies. In order to detect additional parameter sensors like carbon monoxide (CO), airflow velocity, oxygen (O2), and pressure in the power plant's chimney, the methodology entails constructing and designing a simulation measurement system. High accuracy and dependability are ensured by a data acquisition system that seamlessly gathers, processes, and analyzes data from these sensors using programmable logic control (PLC), network devices, and a Raspberry Pi single board computer. The system architecture is tested with a simulated analog output with a 4-20 mA current setting, with a detailed evaluation of its performance. This research has significant implication for both industry and environmental organizations. This study supports efforts to reduce industrial pollution and protect environmental health by offering a viable solution for continuous, accurate emission monitoring. In addition, CO monitoring in power plants is beneficial for carbon reduction programs.
