A Microcontroller-based Fire Protection System for the Safety of Industries in Bangladesh

Fire hazard in the industry is a frequent and destructive disaster in Bangladesh. Lack of sufficient fire prevention system makes the workplace hazardous to workers. This paper introduces a microcontroller-based model for the industry's fire safety, which can detect gas leakage or hazardous fire as well as take action to extinguish the fire. With the assistance of sensors, the system continuously senses the leakage of gas & fire occurrence. Upon detecting suspicious activity, the system disconnects the building's primary power source and shuts the main gas valve. The affected area is also triggered by the fire extinguishing equipment. At the same time, it also notifies the manager and the nearby fire station via SMS. This paper presents a simulation and practical arrangement of the system to demonstrate how it can be implemented as a fire prevention equipment.
