Harmful Gases Profiling in Meru Menora Tunnel using SICK Sensor
Abstract: This paper discusses
the study on the measured harmful gases due to traffic emission in the Meru
Menora Tunnel, a Malaysia highway tunnel. The hazardous gasses data would help
in promoting essential ventilation system inside the tunnel for the health and
safety of the users. The emission gasses concentration reading is divided into
two main components comprise of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), andCarbon Monoxide
(CO). Other than that, the visibility also been measured by using SICK sensor.
The measurement has been done during normal, festive and school holiday
seasons. Festive season shows the highest number of traffic and thus giving the
worst air quality. Ventilation fan system can be activated based on the
concentration level of gases and visibility in the tunnel.
