Abstract

Household waste is an alternative energy source that is potential to be developed considering the continuously of production. Nevertheless, it is necessary to measure gas levels of waste as the effort to manage the waste effectively and efficiently. The design and manufacture of methane concentration gauges is the first step for this purpose. The tool is designed using Arduino and gas sensors as the main components. The measurement results are displayed on the LCD screen and picoscope measuring instrument. The sample used as a measuring object are decomposition of vegetables, liquid waste, and mixed waste. The measurement results show that the three types of waste show an increased concentration of methane gas, but the highest concentration of gas in vegetable waste. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
