Abstract :
The sewage treatment system plays an important role in the environmental protection of the city, there are several kinds of parameters that need to be monitored simultaneously in order to make the progress under control. Wired monitoring system is still the main approach to monitor the parameter in the existing sewage monitoring system while it has the drawback of highly cost, poor expansion and difficult maintenance. Based on these disadvantages and the development of wireless sensor networks, we design a wireless sensor networks monitoring system that can monitor sorts of parameters at the same time. The wireless system can be operated from the Internet and formed a dynamic network. It has the advantage of high reliability, easy expansion, and low-power consumption, we implemented this system in A Sewage Treatment Plant and got an excellent performance.
