One of the renewable energies that has great potential in Indonesia is biogas. Biogas is a gas produced from anaerobic activity or fermentation of organic materials. Biogas produces clean energy, which can be used for daily purposes such as cooking or lighting (electricity). However, biogas production is still a challenge in Indonesia. One of the challenges of biogas production is technology. Biogas is still categorized as an energy source that is less efficient and cannot be produced in large quantities. This can be due to the processing process which takes quite a long time but has the potential to not produce results if it is not monitored regularly. To produce optimal biogas products, it is necessary to choose the suitable raw materials and maintain ideal temperature conditions and pH levels in the reactor. Based on the description above, a monitoring system for temperature, pH level, and gas pressure parameters from biogas production based on the internet of things is proposed. One part of the system is data acquisition with sensors and the interface of the designed system. In its implementation, the parameter measurement will use the DS18B20 as a temperature sensor, SKU SEN0169 as a pH sensor, and MPX5010dp as a gas pressure sensor. The interface will be divided into two: the site interface in the form of an LCD, LED, and a button, and an off-site interface in the form of a web application designed with React JS. The developed product will be provided with a unique ID and password to access the parameter data dashboard on the web application. In general, functional testing for each module has been successfully carried out and the results are by the expected specifications.
