A survey: IoT enable framework for water quality measurement and distribution

Abstract

Real-time water quality detection consists of a great practical significance and also it led to management of precious water resources. This paper suggests an IoT enabled framework that analyses, monitor, report, maintain and distribute the physical and chemical properties of water. pH is how acidic or alkaline the water is one parameter that used to analyze the quality of water (7 in pH scale is neutral) apart from this chemical factor, two physical factors are considered in analyzing. Turbidity the measurement of how particle suspended in water, which led to lower the dissolved oxygen, reduce the photosynthesis of aquatic plants. Temperature is the other property, this caused by air temperature, groundwater inflows, exposure to sunlight. The authors examine through various existing implementations and research on such system and attempt to provide an overview of the research gaps and research problems available enabling further pathways.
