Abstract
Water quality monitoring is essential for ensuring safe and clean water for various applications, including drinking, agriculture, and industrial use. Traditional methods of water quality assessment are time-consuming and require laboratory testing, making real-time monitoring challenging. This project proposes an Arduino-based water quality monitoring system that provides a cost-effective and efficient solution for realtime data collection and analysis.

The system utilizes multiple sensors to measure key parameters such as pH level, turbidity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and conductivity. These sensors are interfaced with an Arduino microcontroller, which processes the collected data and transmits it to a display module or a cloud-based server for remote monitoring. The real-time data acquisition enables users to take immediate corrective actions when water quality deviates from acceptable standards.

The proposed system is ideal for applications in rural and urban water supply systems, aquaculture, and environmental monitoring. Its low cost, ease of deployment, and real-time functionality make it a promising alternative to traditional water quality testing methods. Future enhancements can include IoT integration for remote monitoring and AI-based analytics for predictive water quality assessment.
