Specification

Description:BACKGROUND
Field of Invention
[001] Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a quality monitors and particularly to an air adulteration tracking system.
Description of Related Art
[002] An increasing awareness of air pollution's effects on health and productivity has highlighted the importance of technologies for monitoring indoor air quality. Indoor environments are particularly vulnerable to pollutant accumulation due to limited ventilation and the presence of diverse pollution sources, including construction materials and daily human activities. Monitoring systems have been developed to assess air conditions and provide actionable insights to maintain healthier indoor spaces.
[003] Traditional approaches to indoor air quality monitoring relied on standalone devices that operated independently to measure specific parameters. These systems were limited by their inability to integrate data from multiple sources or provide real-time feedback to users. Advances in sensor technologies and computational systems have addressed these limitations, enabling more comprehensive monitoring capabilities.
[004] Recent developments in air quality monitoring systems have introduced scalable designs capable of assessing multiple parameters across large spaces. These systems use interconnected networks of sensors and centralized data analysis platforms to deliver more accurate and actionable insights. By streamlining data collection and analysis processes, these technologies have become critical tools for ensuring safer and healthier indoor environments.
[005] US2022270464A1 discloses a ‘Healthy Indoor Environment and Air Quality Monitoring System and Method for Accessing and Sharing Information, publicly’. US2023324064A1 discloses an ‘Air Quality Turnover Solution System, Device and Methods to Mitigate the Risk of Infection in Room Turnover’.
[006] However, the abovementioned arts lack flexibility for large-scale deployment, suffer from inconsistent data accuracy, and present difficulties in user integration. Addressing these issues continues to drive innovation, with ongoing efforts focused on improving the efficiency, reliability, and scalability of indoor air quality monitoring technologies.
[007] There is thus a need for an improved and advanced air adulteration tracking system that can administer the aforementioned limitations in a more efficient manner.

I/We Claim:
1. An air adulteration tracking system (100), the system (100) comprising:
air monitoring devices (102a-102n) installed distributedly at designated locations of a site, adapted to monitor an air quality of the designated locations;
a communication gateway (104) installed on the site, and adapted to:
receive air quality data, corresponding to the monitored air quality, from the air monitoring devices (102a-102n) by establishing communication with the air monitoring devices (102a-102n) through a Long Range (LoRa) based communication technology; and
transmit data packets comprising the received air quality data to a cloud-based processor (106) through a Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) based communication technology;
wherein the cloud-based processor (106) is configured to:
receive the data packets comprising the received air quality data from the communication gateway (104);
evaluate the air quality of the designated locations by comparing the received air quality data with air quality standards stored in a memory (108); and
generate preventive recommendations when the air quality of any of the designated locations is determined to fall below the air quality standards.
2. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cloud-based processor (106) is configured to transmit the generated preventive recommendations to a user device (110).
3. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cloud-based processor (106) is configured to generate enhancement recommendations when the air quality of any of the designated locations is determined to meet the air quality standards.
4. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cloud-based processor (106) is configured to communicate to a user device (110) via an Application Programming Interface (API) of a RESTful architecture.
5. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cloud-based processor (106) is configured to communicate to a user device (110) in a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format.
6. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the monitoring devices comprise a carbon dioxide sensor adapted to measure a carbon dioxide level in air of the designated location.
7. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the monitoring devices comprise a carbon monoxide sensor adapted to measure a carbon monoxide level in air of the designated location.
8. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the monitoring devices comprise a Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) sensor adapted to measure a volatile organic compounds level in air of the designated location.
9. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the monitoring devices comprise a temperature-humidity sensor adapted to measure an ambient temperature and humidity level of the designated location.
10. A method (300) for tracking air using an air adulteration tracking system (100), the method (300) is characterized by steps of:
monitoring an air quality of designated locations using air monitoring devices (102a-102n);
encapsulating air quality data into data packets;
transmitting the data packets to a cloud-based processor (106) through a communication gateway (104);
enabling the cloud-based processor (106) to receive the data packets comprising the received air quality data from the communication gateway (104);
evaluating the air quality of designated locations by comparing the received air quality data with air quality standards stored in a memory (108);
generating preventive recommendations when the air quality of any of the designated locations is determined to fall below the air quality standards; and
transmitting the generated preventive recommendations to a user device (110).
