Air quality sensors

Nitrogen compounds in air

According to https://www.rivm.nl/stikstof/monitoren-advies-onderzoek/overzicht-stikstofmetingen/metingen-stikstof-in-de-lucht average (typical?) values of

  • Ammonia (NH3): 6.7 ug/m3 (9.6 ppb)
  • NOx: 27.3 ug/m3
  • NO2: 18.6 ug/m3 (9.9 ppb)

(ppb-conversion using https://www.breeze-technologies.de/blog/air-pollution-how-to-convert-between-mgm3-%C2%B5gm3-ppm-ppb/ )

RIVM report on inexpensive nitrogen-in-air sensors: https://www.samenmeten.nl/sensoren-voor-no2 Conclusion: most sensors are not sensitive enough to be used in typical outdoor conditions, with perhaps one exception: alphasense NO2-B43F

Water physical analysis

Turbidity / clarity

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbidity

Aliexpress sensor TS-300B: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005006732956937.html Has a range 0 ~ 1000 ± 30 NTU

Order of magnitude for turbidity:

  • Drinking water upper limit: 4 NTU (European turbidity standard for drinking water)
  • Ambient water: 10-150 NTU. The US state of Washington use a "background" value of 50 NTU as reference.

(see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbidity#Standards_and_test_methods )

So the Aliexpress sensor is suited only for "dirty" water.

Boat control

Typically the wireless link looks like this:

  • 2.4 GHz working frequency
  • 500m range

Interesting links:

remote control

Image of remote control RF chip: [...]

Parts:

  • 12.000 MHz crystal/oscillator
  • 16-pin control chip: 20_CL6L071
  • 6-pin RF chip: 1110 / VKA3, could be an rx/tx switch, amplifier or filter circuit

See also: https://www.open-tx.org/

Next steps:

  • map out the connections between the mainboard and the rf board, expected: VCC, GND, spi ?

Use cases

material:

Useful distinction, typically used in documents/guidelines:

  • chemical quality, what substances are present in the water?
  • biological / ecology quality, what kind of living organisms live in the water?

Reeuwijkse plassen

See

potential applications:

  • inspect water sides (oever) over time
  • underwater camera: detect invasive cray fish
  • sample water properties at high spatial resolution, high time resolution
  • early detection of indicators for cyanobacteria: temperature and nutrients

Detect/find pollution source

Implementation

reading temperature sensor

The idea is to to use a DB18B20 temperature sensor, read it using an arduino nano board acting as a 1-wire adapter. Use openwire-fs as user-side openwire software http://owfs.org

Preparation:

  • Add the regular user to the 'dialout' group, so it can access serial ports
 sudo adduser <name> dialout

Setting up the hardware:

  • connect the DS18B20 to the connector board with the pull-ups
  • wire the connector board to the arduino nano, see ...
  • plug the arduino nano in the pi

Setting up the software:

  • Install openwire fs
 sudo apt install owfs
  • Create the openwire fs mountpoint
 sudo mkdir /mnt/1wire
  • Configure owfs, edit /etc/owfs.conf
 server: device = /dev/ttyUSB0
 mountpoint = /mnt/1wire
 allow_other
 (comment out the line with the FAKE devices)
  • Configure systemd services
 sudo systemctl enable owserver owhttpd
 sudo systemctl disable owftpd
  • Start the systemd service
 sudo systemctl start owserver owhttpd
  • Check the logs
 sudo journalctl -xeu owserver -f
  • Open a browser to view the web interface
 http://localhost:2121 or
 http://raspberrypi.local:2121
