Detection of Volatile Organic Compound using Electrochemical Sensor

Abstract

Food is essential for every living creature. Food consist of many nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats or proteins. These nutrients present in food are partaken by an organism that forms energy for inciting growth and for process of metabolism. Food chemistry mainly deals with a range of chemical processes and synergies between biological and non-organic components. Preservatives are used in the food to increase its usability and retains its consumability. These may have some serious effects. Many of the chemicals VOCs are controlled and eliminated while detecting. These usages can be extended from environmental monitoring to test the emission of materials. These VOC detected can be detected by using gas sensors and the consumed level these VOC was already stored in Rasberry Pi development board and concentration is proportional to the small change in current value
