Abstract :
Air pollution is not only harmful to the environment but to all the other living beings on earth. Seventy-five percent of the total carbon monoxide emissions are caused due to automobiles. In urban areas, automobile emissions contribute to 50-90% of the total air pollution. Every vehicle will have emission. It is not possible to avoid emissions completely but it can be monitored and controlled by using a pollution detection system. The standard levels of emission are set by the government as per Bharat Stage norms. Due to the improper maintenance of vehicles the emission level of the vehicle increases. When the emission levels of the vehicle increases, vehicle owner will be informed about the harmful levels of pollution. If no action is taken by the owner then this information along with the location of the vehicle will be given to pollution regulatory body. This information will be helpful to identify the polluting vehicles in an area. Hence, necessary action can be taken by the authority against the vehicle owner to control pollution. The real time data of the polluting vehicle can be given to the pollution regulatory body. The synchronization and execution of the entire process is monitored and controlled by using microcontroller.
