Recently, microelectromechanical system (MEMS) cantilevers have received significant interest in the domain of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). An analysis of MEMS cantilevers in VOCs is presented in this Review. It examines the different forms of sensors used to detect VOCs. It goes into the conditions that influence MEMS and the strategies used for VOC sensing. It examines research on MEMS cantilevers and other VOC sensing and detection techniques. It shows how MEMS can be used to detect VOCs. Moreover, it presents a comparative study based on the objectives, types of sensors employed, merits, and shortcomings of existing works. This Review intends to explore MEMS cantilevers in VOCs for supporting further research and applications.
Pollution introduces harmful substances into the natural environment, resulting in environmental alterations. Industries are a major source of air pollution because of many power plants, chamber processes, cleaning operations, and material burning processes. Volatile organic compounds and other contaminants are discharged into the atmosphere. Sensor fusion technology-based air pollution has been proposed in this study to meet the national air quality criteria, and several nations have implemented emission monitoring systems. It is common knowledge that PM2.5 sensors can be found in air purifiers, in the immediate surroundings, and in everyday lives. PM2.5 particles can be more accurately detected by increasing the sensitivity to smaller particles and optimizing the flow of particles into the detecting region. The sensors’ responsiveness and sensitivity are excellent based on the testing results. A low-cost monitoring system can benefit from this technology since it may be used to give data on the levels of nitrogen, particulate matter, and inorganic nitrates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
