Abstract

The important environmental issues surrounding lawnmowers and the small engines frequently used in gardening equipment are addressed in this ground-breaking study. We have discovered significant reductions in hazardous emissions through exhaust characterisation studies using different fuels and oxidizing catalysts. The positive outcomes obtained by merging cutting-edge catalyst systems with environmentally improved fuels like alkylate fuel are particularly significant. The frightening reality that, as of 2020, gas-powered lawn equipment in California posed a greater threat to ozone pollution than all the state's automobiles combined makes these findings of outstanding importance. We offer an answer to this urgent problem an IoT-enabled solar-powered grass cutter that is improved by the incorporation of solar panels, ultrasonic sensors, and an adjustable cutter. Grass cutters and other conventional fuel-dependent machines have long caused environmental damage due to noise pollution, ecosystem disruption, and other factors. With the help of our ground-breaking technology, pollutants are successfully eliminated, precise control is made possible, and energy efficiency is increased. Additionally, obstacle avoidance results in increased environmental friendliness. Analysis in comparison to traditional grasscutters highlights the significant environmental benefits of our method. This study highlights the urgent need for wider acceptance of our lawn mower, the development of solar-powered, Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled garden equipment, and the promotion of change for a more thriving, sustainable environment.
