Automation and sensor control for an aquaponic system in the rural town of de San José de Quero district, Peru 2021

In the localities of the district of San José de Quero, which are currently affected by severe climate changes such as drought, frost, or others, which, in order to supply food to their livestock, in less time, space, with a higher quality protein supplement and to produce other foods that are not produced in the area by the climate, it was proposed to design an automated and sensor-controlled aquaponic chamber based by an On-Off controller. The design detailed the arrangement of sensors and actuators, using Python language that was controlled through a Raspberry Pi applied by an On-Off controller, the harmony of sensors and actuators were achieved through a mathematical analysis supported by the knowledge of 2 systems such as aquaculture and hydroponics, the combination of this is called aquaponics. As a result, in aquaculture, it was possible to simulate the control of the water level and control the temperature, pH, and oxygen ranges, in hydroponics it was possible to control the humidity and temperature, making the aquaponic system create favorable conditions for the growth and development of the plants. In summary, constant control of sensors and actuators was obtained in a Raspberry Pi proving to be robust for the development of the aquaponic system in an industrial way, achieving the automation of the camera.
