Abstract:
Every year, air pollution from fossil fuels causes millions of deaths, raises the risk
of stroke, lung cancer, and asthma, and causes the nation’s economy to suffer
enormous losses. Along with the physical and economic effects of polluted air,
Filipinos have long borne the burden of climate change’s effects. The province
of Rizal does not have any equipment that can be used to monitor, detect, and
analyze Air Quality. The main goal is to design and develop a ”Low-Cost Air
Quality Monitoring System” that will track the air quality index in specific indoor
and outdoor locations. The study successfully implemented an Air Quality
Monitoring System prototype that incorporated gas sensors such as MQ-5, MQ-7,
DHT11, and Dust Particle Sensor to detect, measure, and analyze pollutants like
temperature, humidity, methane, carbon dioxide, and particulate matter.
