Abstract:
The main objective of this work is the design and development of a device similar to a continuous gas sensor, which can analyze the composition of combustible gases, depending on the types of sensors installed in the capsule designed for this purpose. Some manufacturers of continuous gas analyzers develop equipment with high price. The purpose of this work is the design and implementation of a low cost system, affordable to any type of company, based on the platform Open Hardware Arduino, for measuring and analyzing biogas. This system can be used for many applications and because biogas is a renewable gas fuel, it will be increasingly important in countries committed to the reduction of greenhouse gases. All circuits will be designed and later simulated with the Multisim 12.0 software. The printed circuit boards will be created with the help of the Ultiboard 12.0 software and, finally, the necessary files will be created for the printing of these circuits in the plates with the software LPKF CircuitPro 1.5.
