Abstract

The rapid growth of industries has raised concerns about their long-term impact on the environment, especially regarding air and water quality in and around industrial areas. This summary introduces an innovative approach using IoT for continuous monitoring of air and water quality, coupled with blockchain technology for secure data storage. In today's environmentally conscious and rule-abiding era, the blend of IoT and blockchain offers a smart solution. IoT sensors are strategically placed to provide real-time data, enabling swift responses to environmental changes. Blockchain, acting as a highly secure digital ledger, maintains an unchangeable record of the collected data. This system not only ensures real-time monitoring and data security but also encourages industrial responsibility through transparent data sharing. It allows all stakeholders to monitor environmental conditions, fostering accountability and driving companies towards more sustainable practices. Moreover, the long-term data collected is invaluable for understanding industrial impacts on the environment and ensuring regulatory compliance. Challenges like sensor maintenance and data compatibility exist, but the importance of using technology to safeguard the environment near industries is evident.
