OXYGEN EXTRACTOR FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM: AN EFFECTIVE APPROACH TO EXTINGUISH FIRE OUTBREAK
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
In society at large, fire outbreak has become a major concern. Nigeria Fire service and the mandated fire extinguisher, which expires after a short while have never sorted out the problem that’s why we went into this research. Oxygen Extractor Fire Detection System aimed at tackling the problem of fire destruction in our society that causes loss of life and properties by first alerting human occupants through the alarm system within sixty seconds to leave the area. Secondly, after sixty seconds there will be automatic lock down, the next the system will introduce hydrogen or nitrogen to displace the atmospheric oxygen to another compound thereby inactivating fire in the area because without oxygen no fire, within this time limit, oxygen mask (supplemental oxygen) drop down will be introduced into the enclosed partitions (rooms, cars). Presently, this system is at prototype level with Visual BASIC 6.0. We believe that soonest the design will go into an active simulator like Proteus VSM professional to physical prototype via microcontroller or field programmable gate array (FPGA).
