ABSTRACT
Underwater wireless sensor network is the simple and basic way to monitor the
quality of water using wireless sensor network (WSN) technology. To monitor
the quality of water over different sites as a real time application, A WSN
technology like Zigbee is used to connect the nodes and base station. The
collected data of PH sensor is sent to base station and at the base station
collected data is displayed on 16x2 LCD. If displayed PH>7 then the water said
to be hard hence to soft the water we design water softener circuit which is
working until water PH should not be equal to 7.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 Definition of Project:
To take preventive actions for quality maintenance we got an idea that a system should be
implemented to monitor the quality of water in easy way, so it can easily analyze some of the
critical and important factors of water. Various environmental parameters such as
temperature, pH, oxygen density, turbidity and so on from water can be collected by these
systems using different sensors.
Here only monitoring of the system is not sufficient so that we will design such an
application which is if water Ph should not be equal to 7 the conditioning of water will start
and did not stop until water Ph should not be equal to 7.
A water softener circuit is based on electromagnetic or electric field causes small calcium
carbonate crystals in water to join and form larger crystals
The Electronic water softener operates at a frequency of 15 kHz and amplitude of 12 volts
A 555 timer was used to produce a rectangular-wave signal which induced the field required
in the water supply passing through a tube using two open ended copper coils wound round it
The coils were insulated to prevent electrical contact with the tubes. An activity indicator was
designed to detect the presence of the 15 kHz oscillator signal.

1.2 PH sensor Circuit:
Sensing circuit is designed using two electrodes and these electrodes would be dipped in the
solution of water samples. Inside the water solution these electrode form the cathode-anode
pair, certain amount of current will be generated
1K resistor connected to this sensor circuit which will oppose the flow of the current and thus
Potential Difference occurs between the two electrodes.

1.3 Water Softener Circuit:
A water softener circuit is based on electromagnetic or electric field causes small calcium
carbonate crystals in water to join and form larger crystals
The Electronic water softener circuit operates at variable frequency 1 kHz and 50 kHz. The
operated frequency generated from Arduino Uno and passes through power amplifier circuit
which induced the field required in the water supply passing through a tube using two open
ended copper coils wound around it.

3.4Titration Method:
Take 10ml sample water (Soft Water) then added into 1ml Buffer solution and 3 drops of
EBT (Eriochrome Black T).
Add EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) continuously while sample water colour is not
come to transparent Blue. And at that time we note the readings of glass tube.

3.5Water softener circuit design:
Maximum input and output voltages = 15 volts
Maximum input current = 200 mA
The frequency of oscillators of NE555 IC was determined using the RC network.
Tc = charging time = 0.693 (R1 + R2) C
Td = Discharging time = 0.693 R2 C
Period (T) = Tc + Td
Frequency (f) = I/T
For frequency (f) = 15 x 103 Hz
Period (T) = 1/f = 1/15 x 103 = 66.666 x 10-6 s
Using;
R1 = 10k
R2 = 10R1 = 100k for about 1:10 mark to space ratio.
Using equation (4), for T = 66.67x10-6 s
C = 4.58 x 10-10 F
= 0.458 x 10-9 F
= 0.45 n F
Two capacitors C1 = C2 = 100nF were used. One at the input to control the unwanted radio
frequency signals and the other at pin 5 to block the R.F signals. This capacitor offers a reactance of
106 ohm approximately to block the R-F signals.
Resistor R3 is current controlled Resistor.
TIP 122 Darlington Transistor is used to amplify the current to generate strong flux.
Maximum output current: 424mA
IE2 = ß2 x ß1 x IB1
IE2= 1000*424 uA
IE2=424 mA

3.6Softener circuit Implementation in Proteus:
Fig. 3.6 WSC IN Proteus
3.7Calculate required flux to soft the water
By Using faraday’s LAW we can calculate the change in flux.
V= N × d/dt
Where V=di/dt
Hence change in current is proportional to change in flux
Here Maximum output current is 424mA
Number of turns of inductor wire at positive output = 77
Number of turns of inductor wire at ground output = 75
Hence Total turns would be = 155
Hence calculated maximum flux would be
 =424mA/155 = 2.73x10-3

CHAPTER 4: CONCLUSION AND RECOOMENDATION
4.1 Scope
A system was with more sensor nodes and more base stations. Nodes and base stations are
connected as WSN, the different base stations are connected via Ethernet. The Ethernet can
also be connected to internet so the user can just login to the system and get a real time water
quality data faraway.
Water softening technique depends on the input from the ph sensor.
4.2 Applications
Chemical leakage detection in rivers: This is very important as due to chemical spills in
rivers, the aquatic animals and creatures living in the rivers get affected and die in large
numbers. So early detection of the leakage will not only save cost of cleaning the river beds,
but also save a lot of aquatic life.
Maintain the swimming pool water quality: By testing the pH level and Chloride levels of
pool water, the quality of water in swimming pools is maintained.
Maintenance of Fish Tank water: The bacteria, pathogen detection in water are possible to
maintain the quality of tank water.
4.3 Conclusions
Sequential follow up of water pollution status in remote region can be achieved by
monitoring the quality of water & collecting comprehensive data.
The system not only provides comprehensive evaluation of water environment but also can
quickly discover urgent water pollution accident or natural disasters, transferring the
abnormal water quality information to monitoring centres by quicker communication network
and provides graphical references for the decision making department to comprehend the
status of the disaster to establish the prevention and cure policy.
The designed system is used to test the water for various dose responses for more type of
infection in a sample, at the various temperatures. This water quality sensor model is very
beneficial for the society in various
application of water.
This research work is used to design the system to study the water sample. The sample food
material is checked under the different atmospheric condition. The impurity is added in
the testing material is analyze at the different interval of time of a day by the monitoring pH
value and by measuring the hardness of water.
