Real-time Monitoring of Biomass Temperature and Humidity Based on the Internet of Things

Abstract

The conversion of biomass to energy is known as biomass regeneration. This energy is used to generate electricity and heat. Combustion systems and classification systems are a major category of biomass conversion technology for power and heat production. The temperature in the biomass gasifier plays an important role in producing gas with high calorific value. Temperature can be measured correctly without error and can then be monitored and controlled by the Internet of Things. In this work, various experimental studies were carried out on variations in temperature with changes in the airflow rate. To measure the temperature profile inside the gasifier, DHT22 and NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermocouple with the selected data acquisition device. From the results of data acquisition using IoT, precision data, and real-time temperature of biomass gasification were obtained using the Wemos D1 device.
