Automated water storage monitoring system for rural community in Malaysia based on arduino microcontroller: article / Wan Muhammad Alif Wan Najib Sabri

This project present a simple automated low cost water storage system in rural area intended to satisfy the demand of clean water and water shortage. There are still many rural areas in Malaysia that does not have the privilege to have clean water supply to satisfy the demand of water usage in daily life, such as in rural area in kelantan, Sabah and Sarawak. The problem that they are facing is the water from the water well is not enough for the whole household at one time. Meanwhile, they still depend on the water sources such as self-dug water well. Besides that, these rural people are lack of infrastructure to monitor the level of water in order to use them in saving for daily life. So this project is developed to overcome the problem. Therefore, there arc 3 important parts of this system defined as; water storage, filtering and monitoring system. The purpose of this project is to design automated low cost water storage system and the monitoring system which will characterized the sensors use based on real time data. As conclusion, the system capabilities to help storing clean water in rural area, thus solving clean water and sanitation issues while been monitored.
