Abstract

In the conventional recirculation fish farms, there is a lot of difficulties due to lack of professional manpower and high reliance on imported measurement equipment. In this paper, we implement an automatic water quality measurement system which can measure the pollution degree in a water tank of fish farms using an optical sensor(pH, DO) with the IoT technology. The problem with existing systems is that the fish tank should be checked by means of human, or put the measuring equipment into the water tank of fish farms and measurement directly. But, it has a bad influence on the growth of fish. In this paper, we propose a method of indirect measurement without immersing the measurement equipment in a water tank of fish farm and develop a sustainable measurement system in an environment containing salt and lots of pollutants without affecting the growth of fish within the water tank of fish farms.

기존의 순환여과식 양식장에서는 전문 인력의 부족, 수입 측정 장비에 대한 높은 의존도 등으로 인하여 많은 어려움을 격고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 최신 IoT기술을 적용한 광학식 센서(pH, DO)를 이용하여 양식장 수조 내 오염도를 빠른 시간내에 측정할 수 있는 자동 수질 측정 시스템을 구현하고자 한다. 기존 시스템의 문제점은 양식장 수조를 사람이 일일이 확인하거나, 측정 장비를 수조 속에 넣고 직접 측정을 하여 물고기의 생육에 좋지 않은 영향을 주는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 시스템은 측정 장비를 수조 속에 담그지 않고 간접 측정을 하는 방식을 제안하고 염분 및 다수의 오염 물질이 포함된 환경에서도 양식장 내의 물고기의 생육에 영향을 주지 않고 지속적인 측정이 가능한 시스템을 개발하였다.
