   1. INTRODUCTION

In industries , the toxic gas release and temperature increases in the working zone are the major cause for the huge disasters

.For example ,in the power plants there is a possibility of increase of temperature and the toxic gas leakage which cause the reactor to burst and damage the plant and harm the workers

Protection functions are normally separated from monitoring and control facilities in traditional industrial and commercial power systems. They were designed by different suppliers with separate databases and separate humanmachine interfaces. Today, communicating devices and computer soft- ware are available that make it possible to integrate protection, monitoring, and control in a more cost-effective system. The architecture of integrated systems makes it possible to configure a system for one or more purpose. The architecture is easy to expand the system after it has been installed to add more of the same functions or to add additional functions. For example, it may be desirable to do monitoring at first and add control later. It should be helpful when considering any new monitoring, protection, or control system.

Wireless sensor-based controls have drawn industry attention on account of reduced costs, better power management, ease in maintenance, and effortless. They have been successfully deployed in many industrial applications such as maintenance, monitoring, control, security, etc.

In various industries ,the technological processes are conducted in the air of the working zone and various toxic gases are released. For example, in air boilers it is often possible to detect excess concentrations of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, and in the air of sewage pumping stations can repeatedly exceed the maximum allowable concentration of ammonia. In flats or offices located on the ground floor, the source of toxic substances in the air can be exhaust gases from

parked cars in the courtyard. The source of hydrogen sulfide, ammonia in flats may be a faulty sewage system, and in new buildings from walls and ceilings, ammonia can be released, which is used in construction to increase the frost resistance of concrete.

Many harmful substances do not have a smell and cannot be felt, but in high concentrations affect health and

well-being. The method of monitoring the air state in continuous monitoring system of harmful gases and vapors which determines their concentration.

It is known that carbon monoxide is one of the most deadly poisonous gases of all gases. It is often referred as silent killer. It is colorless, tasteless and odorless compound

. It is 200x stronger than oxygen. So it is virtually not detectable without using detection technology and mostly people do not realize they are being poisoned.

On the other hand, measurement of ambient temperature and object temperature can give us a better idea of a place without going there. This paper exhibits the ideas of temperature detection, motion detection and gas detection which is possible and will open a new possibility of introducing modern technology to real life motion detection is a basic method to identify moving object or person. It is a process of detecting the IR radiations emitted by the object.

Coal mine safety problem is an important problem to be resolved. In order to prevent the occurrence of coal mine accidents, coal mine invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to construct a variety of monitoring systems to monitor various data about coal mine safety.

Through these monitoring data, coal mine safety can be judged.

As one of the largest coal production and consumption countries in the world, China is also one of the related accidents occurred frequently countries such as gas explosion, flood, breaking out of fire during the exploitation of coal mine. Coal Mine Detection Robot can be substituted or partial substituted for emergency workers to enter the mine shaft disaster site and detect hazardous gas and do some environmental exploration . Mine Detection Robot uses gas sensor to absorption way to detect methane, carbon monoxide gases.

The surface of those places is uneven due to fallen trees and rocks, and could be severely uneven and terrains were shaped by rain, roots of trees, rocks, and other effects. Secondly, the size must be small enough to pass through between rocks. In underground, mines are usually extensive labyrinths ,in which the tunnels are generally long and narrow with a few kilometers in length and a few meters in width. Thousands of miners die from mining accidents every year. It is now widely approved that the underground mining operations are of high risk. However, underground coal mines mainly consist of random passages , branch tunnel and toxic gases .

In order to avoid human to be exposed in such environment, robot systems have been being developed for the last decade. This robot system has been built to be used in real minefields. In order to be suitable for minefields, the system must be faster than manual operation of human. Since the aim of this system is development of a commercial mine detection

robot system must be faster than human.

For a process system, alarm signals can be generated in the respective controller system based on the information received from the sensors as well as from other relevant devices. The process signal an represent any measured signal of interest In such case, the utilization of a wireless sensor network (WSN) and other sensing devices are used for realizing the automation of underground monitoring.

In this paper is that light weight sensor like temperature sensor, gas sensor, noise sensor, metal sensor and PIR sensor are connected to monitoring the environmental change in both the industry monitoring and mine detection robot system and all the data are continuously monitor through the web page.

The main goal of the work is to develop the hardware and software of the information- measuring system based on the inexpensive Arduino platform which detects toxic gases and gas leakage in the air, when exceeding their maximum permissible concentration in industries and mine fields and it gives the output in web page along with alarm indication.
