Abstract

Nowadays harmful gas leakage in public toilets is the main reason for health sick. Pollutants released by public
toilets into atmosphere is also a cause for the environmental pollution and such the reason greatly effects
humans' health by minimizing the levels of oxygen and increasing the levels of harmful gases like (hydrogen
sulphide, ammonia). The management only have an eye on profits and consider environmental safety as least
priority which in turn effects of harmful gases are higher on public areas compared to normal living places.
Mostly people don't prefer public toilets because of bacteria by inserting the toxic detector we can prevent
bacteria. These are low expensive so government can afford for toxic detectors to keep in public toilets. We are
advocating for the implementation of a toxic chemical alert system that would rapidly notify communities about
threats to their health and safety during toilets getting toxic. By using gas detect sensor it can detect the harmful
gases then the GSM can identify and notify by using LED or buzzer. A microcontroller integrated circuit
designed to govern a specific operation in an embedded system. This can also be used widely by the government
in the public toilets. It saves both time and manpower to the municipality. This is also very economical.
