Continuous Progress on Aquaponics Project 

"The Shelves" & Workshop 2

OBJECTIVES

  • 2nd Briefing about Final Year Project by Sir Shah Rizailli.
  • To gain knowledge about the requirement needed for Chapter 1 to 3. 
  • Continuing work on to produce the aquaponic systems

CONTENTS

1. Workshop 2 Final Year Project (FYP)  Thesis and Proposal Writing

In week 5, the meeting was conducted on Microsoft Teams that involved the FYP Diploma/FYP1/FYP2/IFYP students and the attendance is compulsory. The briefing was conducted by Sir Shah Rizalli Mukhtar.

Date: 23th MArch 2022
Time: 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM
Venue: Online Microsoft Teams

In this briefing, the Final Year Project (FYP) committees have briefed us about:

  1. Thesis writing and proposal writing for chapter 1-3.
  2. Thesis and Proposal Format.
  3. Last week for registration project title.


2. Continue the work on building of aquaponics facilities.

After the installation work done on the gutter grow bed and filters. Another work process is carried out, namely the construction of shelves for the placement of all aquaponic hardware, it is more neat and orderly and I use the angle iron to build the shelves. I use the slotted iron angle bar to build the shelves.






3. Software simulation and calibration towards the sensors parameters.

Temperature Sensor Calibration

The temperature sensor calibration is carried out using a directly method by the Arduino Ide. All of the codes and terminology used in calibration can be found on the datasheet published on the manufacturer's website. The calibration process of this sensor is done by using the water in the fish tank.

pH Sensor Calibration

The pH sensor calibration is done by the Arduino Ide using a straightforward manner. The datasheet published on the manufacturer's website contains all of the calibration codes and language. This sensor's calibration is carried out with the help of the water in the fish tank.
    To replicate a neutral pH measurement, the pH module must be unplugged from the probe and short-circuited before the calibration procedure can begin. One end of the stripped wire was wrapped around the outside BNC connector, while the other end was placed into the BNC connection's hole.

 BNC Connector Calibration



Dissolve Oxygen Sensor Calibration

DO sensor calibrations necessitate a calibration with a known value against which the reading is compared and corrected. The code for this sensor was available on the Atlas Scientific website, and it was able to run the process using the Arduino Ide. 

     The calibration is carried out by utilizing saturated water (tap water) and ensuring that the water temperature remains stable. The DO sensor and conductivity sensor must function properly, which necessitates rinsing the sensor probe with distilled water to eliminate any unknown material and ensure that it meets the accuracy requirements. The crystalized issues at the anode terminal of the probe should be maintained cleaned by using nail sharpener on the recommendation from the Atlas.

SUMMARY

  • All the work done during the week went smoothly and the next steps progress can be continuously implemented.

  FYP2 PRESENTATION & DEMONSTRATION DAY OBJECTIVES To attend the final presentation of the project during demonstration day Do all the final setup before attend the final presentation. CONTENTS   1. Presentation and demonstration during the defense proposal day Date: 25 May 2021 (Wednesday) Time: 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM Venue: Gemilang Hall During the day of the presentation, I and other students were placed in the Dewan Gemilang to do a project demonstration session. The assessors that judged on our presentation was Dr Ismail Adam and Madam Faezah.      Both lecturers gave comments and encouragement on the projects I had done. They commented that my project works perfectly as well as benefits to everyone especially the user who want to be a farmer. and produce their own food production systems.    Madam Faezah also gave an idea for further research where maybe the filters which I use to filter the impurities that been produced by the fish, can be replac...

  Poster Approval Checking & Final Setup on Project Devices  OBJECTIVES To do a final review of the poster before it is printed for the presentation session. Do the troubleshoot and gather the measured data on the project devices. CONTENTS 1.  Final checking of the poster banner with Academic Supervisor (ASV). Before attend the demonstration day at Gemilang Hall on Wednesday 25/5/2022, I went through on final checking with my supervisor, Dr Zaki to get his comments on if there should be additions or improvements. He give comments that the poster was great but need little bit changed in terms of sentence structure and change the position of table or figure labelling.    2.  Perform the final setup of the circuit to face the demonstration day Before facing the demonstration day on Wednesday in the Gemilang hall, all the preparations in terms of hardware need to be done by conducting an final inspection of the hardware or components.   ...

  Search Academic Supervisor (ASV) & Final Year Project (FYP) Title Selection OBJECTIVES:   To find a Final Year Project (FYP) Supervisor to provide guidance on how to plan and assist in  performing the project. To produce a suitable title of  Final Year Project (FYP) for the registration. CONTENTS:      In the  1 st  week, I decided to search the lecturer that still available to be my supervisor for the Final Year Project (FYP). I contacted him, Dr Mohd Zaki Ayob directly and asked for his permission to be my Final Year Project (FYP) supervisor. Dr Zaki asked me about the project that I would like to do in the final project.  Dr Zaki gave suggestions and ideas about the project he wanted. He gave me an idea to do a project that involving in an agriculture. He asked me to do a research and understand a little bit about the problems and solutions that are often faced by farmers in the agriculture sector. The research that I ...
