Industrial Internet of Things Platform for Water Resource Monitoring

Water covers most of the surface of our planet and is a strategic resource for human activities. The recent decades saw a significant increase in adverse impacts on industrial production on the hydrosphere. Pollution and reduced quality of water resources call for the assessment of waterbody parameters and the clearance of polluted waterways. This article reviews the possibility of technological solution integration with the systems of the industrial Internet of Things to implement the environmental monitoring of water quality and assess the efficiency of water supply filters. The authors developed hardware and software solutions to collect and process the data from the AquaTROLL 600 multi-parameter water quality analyzer. The visualization and tracking of the data are carried out using the algorithms for the transfer of water resource data to a local or an MQTT server. The proposed structure allows for the simple scaling of the metering module and using it under various external impacts. Experimental research showed the efficiency of using industrial Internet of Things platforms for the analysis and protection of the environment.
