Abstract

This project proposes pH Monitoring System, a hardware initiative aimed at Chemical Engineering learners. It combines Arduino, pH Sensor, LCD to deliver a functional prototype while reinforcing fundamentals. Budget and duration are estimates; actual costs vary by location and component choices.

Problem statement

Students in Chemical Engineering often lack hands-on project ideas that connect theory with practice. pH Monitoring System addresses a real-world need by applying Arduino, pH Sensor, LCD to solve a domain-specific problem.

Objectives

  • Understand the core concepts behind pH Monitoring System.
  • Design and implement a working prototype using Arduino, pH Sensor, LCD.
  • Evaluate performance and usability of the solution.
  • Document findings and suggest improvements.

Key features

  • Core functionality for pH Monitoring System
  • User-friendly interface or control mechanism
  • Data logging or reporting where applicable
  • Modular and extensible design

Implementation roadmap

  1. Research and requirement analysis
  2. System design and architecture
  3. Implementation of core modules
  4. Integration and testing
  5. Documentation and final report

Required hardware & software
