Description
Summary:This article presents the notion of a project which was planned and carried out to identify toxic food components. This gadget detects not only the proportion of hazardous chemicals in foods, but also shows whether or not the item is safe to eat. The hazardous component in this research was formalin. Formaldehyde is a major concern in Bangladesh in terms of food preservation. Formalin consumption is a major risk to health. The Arduino module is utilized for this project as the system's main powerhouse. To detect formaldehyde gas, the HCHO grove module is utilized. Alongside the hardware, an Android app was developed. This appliance has been created for all Bangladeshi business people. This gadget is also used by people who can't afford a smart phone. This gadget may therefore be used with or without the application. For further information, the app has been developed.
