Abstract — Gas leakages results a serious problem in household and other areas where
household gas is used, therefore the proposed gas leakage detection and monitoring system is
developed. There are many methods available for booking a Gas Refill, methods include online
booking, telephonic booking etc. It will be difficult situation for the one who uses LPG gas for
cooking regularly. The aim of this paper is to present a new system automatically books a
cylinder when the gas is about to empty is by sending a notification to the gas agency using WiFi
using Internet of Things approach. In addition to that sensor is used to detect gas leakage at
home. If the gas leakage is sensed automatically it will send SMS to the user. WiFi is one of the
most used networks across the world. Hence, load cell has been used to monitor the weight of the
LPG gas regularly. The values are next fed to the microcontroller. If the gas in the cylinder
indicates a value where the remaining percentage level is crossed below the threshold level set
for gas to be indicated as getting emptied, then a notification will be delivered to gas enterprise
automatically to book the new cylinder. Subsequently, reply notification will be sent to the
customer about the booking status. At the same time, application software is developed in the gas
enterprise to inform and record the booking. This, work this helps the society to specifically
indicate gas leakage also helps both customers and the agency to get the gas booking made
automatically using the IOT technique.

Introduction
Internet of things endeavor towards making life simpler and faster by automating the entire small
tasks associated with the life of human. Today, everything is getting smart due to the
technological progress such as of IOT. As IOT is very beneficial for automating the tasks, the
advantage of IOT can also be comprehensive for enhancing the convenient safety methods
Security plays a significant role while constructing home, buildings, industries as well as towns.
The enlarged focus of certain gases in the environment can be exceptionally unsafe, in recent
time, everyone needs a facility which reduces time and effort and expect their work to be as easy
as possible. One such area where man prefers to get the work faster and easier is cooking. Most
commonly LPG is used for cooking purpose which was introduced by Dr. Walter Snelling. It is
an amalgamation of propane and butane along with saturated contents in addition to unsaturated
hydrocarbon contents. Gas enterprises uses SMS, IVRS or Online booking for the LPG, which is
time consuming methods in people’s daily life.
However, due to fast nature and high competition, today people look for smarter way of
operations than tedious and mechanical as well as manual routine. As such, booking gas has also
become one of the tasks where one has tendency to either postpone or forget its booking due to
busy schedule and lack of time. Usually in home or industries, most of the disaster happens due
to gas leakages, which leads to several accidents and causes human life. In order to handle such
situation, the proposed gas leakage detection and monitoring system is developed and put forth
in this system.
Problem Definition
To develop an IoT based system that detect/sense the LPG gas leakage and alerting the user
about the gas leakage by buzzer alarm and sending notification to the user.
Purpose
The Proposed system manages to detect LPG gas leakage and send notification to the user. The
additional features are smoke and fire detection, automatic LPG booking by measure the weight
of cylinder using load cell and internet of things
Aim and Objectives
The aims and Objectives of the given system are as follows:
 To detect LPG and send notification to user, fire department and local medical
emergency service.
 To detect additional parameters for extra safety like smoke, fire detection.
 To monitor and control system from remote location.
 Automatically book LPG cylinder, as soon as the LPG reaches below the threshold level
Features
 Sensing Parameters- LPG, Flame (fire), Smoke, Weight of Cylinder

 Store data on Amazon AWS or Google Cloud.
 Visualization and monitoring on Web and Android App.
 Fully Wireless
 Protocol Used: MQTT
 Economically feasible system.
 Realtime notification to user.

Methodology
Fig 1 – Proposed Architecture
In this proposed system, the gas leakage is detected by MQ-6 sensor which is interfaced with
ESP32, when the gas leakage is detected through the MQ-6 sensor the Fan gets on and lights gets
off with buzzer alarm and displaying alert message in LCD display, at the same time the
notification will be sent to user through mobile which is connected via WiFi. Further, working of
this proposed system is as below.
 Load cell which is also known as weight sensor is used to detect the weight of the gas and
the result will be displayed through LCD display.
 If the weight of the cylinder is below the threshold level, the booking confirmation
message will be sent to user.
 The threshold range will be embedded and usually developed using Programming.
 Message will be sent from user to LPG agency and gets a return notification of when the
LPG is delivered.
However, as another segment of this system, it also detects leakage of gas in LPG models
through sensors. LPG gas sensor will generate the signal to the controller and automatically shut
down the main power supply. LCD is used to display the alert message i.e “LPG leakage
detected” displayed when the leak is detected by sensor.

Advantages
 It can be implemented in domestic and commercial places with minimum cost and
resources. Also helps in avoiding accident happens due to LPG Leakage.
 Automatically book gas cylinder without human intervention.
 Provides a user-friendly interface hence will have a greater acceptance by the user like
housewives.
 The system is more compact compared to the existing ones.
Conclusion
Internet of Things has gained its wide popularity in recent days due to its various streams of
applications which has paved way for smooth, safe and easier mode of living style for human
beings. One such area of applications includes gas booking and gas leakage detection for both
domestic and commercial purposes. Though, several techniques are existing for the same, yet gas
leakage detection is one major concern and a challenge always.
This system thus put forth a new proposed system which is microcontroller-based application of
gas booking and gas detection systems using IOT. The sensor used in this model can sense and
detect the leakage of the gas, and the user gets notification regarding to remaining percentage of
gas in the cylinder as well certain action can be taken to pre-book the new cylinder without any
barrier. This unit can be easily integrated into an alarm unit, or a visual indication of the LPG
awareness for further benefits. This proposed system can be useful in marketing sectors like
hotels, shop etc. The main intention of this work is to ensure safe and easier way of gas booking
and gas leakage detection to avoid disasters that may occur due to negligence.
