Inspiration
World water crisis is a very serious concern and can lead to disastrous consequences in later runs. The enough water to all just remains a slogan due to the uneven water distribution and exploitation of water resources. Waste water generated by industries is drastically increasing day by day and the discharge process is being tempered to fake the results which again causes resource depletion and poor management. In this paper, all these problems are carefully discussed with their feasible solutions in terms of IOT and Block Chain network.
What it does
My water chain is a waste-water management and monitoring project that embeds the security and transparency of BlockChain Technology along with the ease and effectiveness of IoT to reduce water exploitation and provide high-quality maintenance of wastewater.
"My water chain" allows the consumers (such as water industries and water parks) to monitor their water resources precisely and the waste generated. Specific Water coins (known as water drops) are provided to the industries based on their monthly performance. These coins can be used by industries to use water optimally and purchase water assets and allowances from all the locally performing industries.
The providers can understand the resource utility better with reliable and accurate IoT connectors that are interfaced and push water data every hour that includes "Flow Rate," "Conductivity Measure," "Solid Waste," "Spectral Measure," and "Optical Measure."
The project is an attempt to come up with an innovative application rather than the conventional use of BlockChain and follow the Hardware-Software approach and provide the most accurate data that will help in getting the best possible insights. These insights will be focusing on the prevention of water resource exploitation and take a step towards its effective utilization.
How we built it
We built it using ReactJs, LivePeer API, Embedded, MongoDb, OpenCv, Flask
Challenges we ran into
Linking Hardware values to blockchain MongoDB
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The values are getting updated in db right and also the hardware is giving right values as of now
What we learned
Working in multistacks is hard but it is filled with fun learning
What's next for My Water Chain - Waste Water Management System
developing ready to launch hardware prototype rather than a raspberry pi model
