Well Cleaners Early Warning System(EWS)

In India, there are more than 70 lakh wells, that are both Kutcha and Pucca, in the alluvial plain regions. These wells irrigate 38% of the net irrigated area of the country and The traditional homestead type of habitation in Kerala is generally characterized by a well in each compound to tap groundwater. Therefore, it is estimated that the state has around 65 to 70 lakh wells. also, there are many Well Cleaners workers who are dying due to inhaling Toxic Gas while cleaning the well, daily in the newspaper we seeing such news, it is a shame, and we know that India is one of the developing country in means of technology and engineering.

I came up with this project due to an incident that happened in my home state Kerala were four workers died of asphyxiation while cleaning well in Kollam, that incident struck in my heart and I was thinking we had the technology to collect data from spacecraft that were in even outer space, so, why don't we make a solution for the safety of Well Cleaners Workers, I'm an Indian technical enthusiast, so, as an Indian it is my responsibility to make an engineering solution for this problem that Indian well cleaning workers face.

So, I have come up with this, The "Well Cleaners Early Warning System(EWS)" or "Well Cleaners EWS" main goal is to protect workers by giving them early notice of dangerous gas leaks and information they may use to take appropriate action. The device continuously monitors gas levels and can instantly identify any unusual increase in concentrations, alerting to potential concerns. As a result, potential accidents and injuries can be avoided, and workers can take appropriate action to protect themselves and leave the area.
The safety of employees is of utmost concern in homes and workplaces where wells and small spaces are common. These conditions are extremely hazardous to the health of anyone working nearby because of the buildup of toxic gases like hydrogen sulphide (H2S), carbon monoxide (CO), and methane (CH4). The installation of a sophisticated early warning system for toxic gas detection is essential to reducing these risks and ensuring the safety of employees.

Ideal for IoT applications, it is compatible with Arduino IDE and features the same form factor as the original UNO for ease of integration into existing projects.

  2. ESP-32: ESP32 is a series of low-cost, low-power system on a chip microcontrollers with integrated
    Wi-Fi and dual-mode Bluetooth. The ESP32 series employs either a Tensilica Xtensa
    LX6 microprocessor in both dual-core and single-core variations, Xtensa LX7 dual-core
    microprocessor or a single-core RISC-V microprocessor and includes built-in antenna switches,
    RF balun, power amplifier, low-noise receive amplifier, filters, and power-management
    modules. ESP32 is created and developed by Espressif Systems, a Shanghai-based Chinese
    company, and is manufactured by TSMC using their 40 nm process. It is a successor to the
    ESP8266 microcontroller.

  3. LM2596: This DC-DC Step-Down Buck Converter Power Supply Module provide all the active
    functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a load up to 5A with
    excellent line and load regulation. This module comes with variable but the fixed value of
    input i.e. 24V, 12V, and 9V as well as fixed output voltage which is 5V 5A. The module
    requires a minimum number of external components, these regulators are simple to use and
    include internal frequency compensation, and a fixed frequency oscillator. Hence it
    replaces the purpose of LM2596S.

  4. OLED Display: OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diodes) is a flat light-emitting technology, made by
    placing a series of organic thin films between two conductors. When an electrical current is applied, a bright light is emitted. OLEDs are emissive displays that do not require a backlight and so are thinner and more efficient than LCDs (which do require a white backlight).

  5. MT3608: The MT3608 2A Max DC-DC Step Up Power Module Booster Power Module is a
    low-cost module that can step up a 2 to 24V input voltage up to a 5 to 28V output at up to
    2A. DC-DC boost converters step up the input voltage to a higher voltage while also stepping
    down the available current since the module can’t output more power than its inputs. This
    boost converter is adjustable and capable of outputting a voltage in the range of 5.0 to 28V
    at a continuous current of up to 1.5A depending on input/output voltage settings with 1A
    available with most settings. Since it is a boost converter, the input voltage must be lower
    than the output voltage. The device can use low ESR bulk ceramic capacitors rather
    than electrolytic caps which avoids long-term aging concerns and contributes to the compact
    packaging. The MT3608 converter IC has over-current and thermal limiting features built in
    to safely shut the device down if driven too hard.

BLOCK DIAGRAM :

1.Transmitter(TX) Or Sensor Module

Sensor Module Diagram

The block diagram consists of a lithium battery(3.7) which is monitored by a lithium battery voltage monitor and TP5100 BMS, DC-DC booster(MT3608) to step up the voltage from 3.7v to 5v to ESP-32. The sensors MQ-136 (detection of hydrogen sulfide), MQ-7(detection of carbon monoxide), MQ-4(detection of methane gas), and HC-SR04(ultrasonic sensor to detect distance from water level) are connected to the ESP-32.

Here the sensor module acts as a Transmitter.

2. Receiver(RX) or Control Module:

N.B: ESP32 IN THE CONTROL MODULE(RX) BLOCK DIAGRAM IS REFERS TO THE ARDUINO UNO R4 WiFi MODULE.

The block diagram consists of two lithium batteries (7.4v) which are connected in series (3.7v each), a Lithium battery voltage monitor monitors them, and TP5100 BMS, LM2596 DC-DC step-down converter is used to provide constant voltage (5v) to Arduino UNO R4 WiFi module and the display is used to show the readings or data transmitted from sensor module through Arduino UNO R4 WiFi module, DC-DC booster (MT3608) is to step up the voltage from 7.4v to 12v and also to provide power to the motor driver(L298) and motor(100RPM). Here the control module operates as a Receiver.

The system is developed using ESP32, this project uses two ESP32s, one ESP32 is a Transmitter(TX) and the other ESP32(Arduino UNO R4 WiFi) will be a Receiver(RX), these ESP32s will communicate by using a communication protocol called ESP NOW.

ESP-NOW is a connectionless communication protocol developed by Espressif that features short packet transmission. This protocol enables multiple devices to talk to each other without using Wi-Fi. This is a fast communication protocol that can be used to exchange small messages (up to 250 bytes) between ESP32 boards. ESP-NOW is very versatile; you can communicate in different arrangements in one-way or two-way communication.

The above picture is a serial monitor data of the project output to ensure it is exchanging data (various gas sensor readings and ultrasonic sensor readings) between two esp32

(one ESP32 is on Arduino UNO R4 WiFi module)

I have used various gas sensors such as MQ-4(methane (CH4)), MQ-7(carbon monoxide (CO)), and MQ-136(hydrogen sulfide (H2S)), these sensors can detect the toxic gases that I mentioned before, these gas sensors are connected with the transmitter(TX) side and the reading will display in the OLED display which is in the Receiving (RX) side, the data are transmitted by the communication protocol.

  • Transmitter(TX) or Sensor Module side assembling below figure

  • Transmitter(TX) or Sensor Module: As I mentioned earlier, it uses gas sensors, an ultrasonic sensor, a lithium-ion battery, a BMS module, a step-up converter, and a battery voltage monitor circuit.

This transmitter (TX) Module goes down to the well to detect any toxic gas presence and give an alert to the workers before they enter the well for cleaning, the receiver(RX) Also Called the Control panel is used to control the entire device,

  • Receiver(RX) or Control Module: consists of 2 lithium-ion batteries, a BMS Module, a step-up and step-down converter, battery voltage monitor, caution indicators, safety buzzer, battery charging status indicators, motor control buttons, display..etc.

  • Receiver (RX) s panel assembling figure :

The transmitter(TX) goes down to the well is using a pully system with a gear motor, which uses a 100RPM motor to deliver the torque, with the combination of the motor driver called L298, an HCSR04 or ultrasonic sensor used as a safety feature of this device, if the operator of this device continuously press the DOWN button in the receiver(RX) or Control Module, the transmitter(TX) module goes down and high chance of a dip in the water in the well, which damage the transmitter(TX) module circuits due to water enters in the PCB and sensors, so, as a safety feature in order to protect the TX module from this, used a ultrasonic sensor, the motor in the pully system(receiver(RX) side)will stop if the transmitter(TX) module is 25CM above the water in the well.

  • The below figure is a battery voltage monitor circuit

Battery Voltage Monitor Circuit

Battery voltage monitor circuit that is also included in order to monitor the battery in the transmitter(TX) module and Receiver (RX) module, in battery voltage monitor circuit uses a TL431 (pictured below) is an Adjustable Precision Zener Shunt Regulator. Its output voltage can be set to any value between 2.5V and 36V with the use of two external resistors (acting as a voltage divider). ith very sharp turn-on characteristics, the TL431 is an excellent alternative to a zener diode in many applications. In this article we will look at how a TL431 can be used to make a very simple battery status monitor illuminating an LED("RX BATT LOW" in the control panel) when the input voltage is above a user-set value.

This is one of the Best projects I have ever seen because this Well Cleaners Early Warning system EWS Project is a Social influence project, lot of fancy electronics Projects are participating in this Circuitdigest Project Challenge 2024, but this is the best Project, and I'm voting for this Project. Project Documentation is Good. also, This Project has a high possibility of productization.
