A smart enclosure protection system for packages containing one or more metals comprises various sensors such as relative humidity, temperature of the metal, temperature within the package, a volatile corrosion inhibitor sensor, as well as a relative humidity sensor. Upon a computer receiving a signal from one or more of the noted sensors that the sensing item is either above or below a predetermined value, it will send a signal to one or more dispensers such as a dehumidifying compound dispenser, a volatile corrosion inhibitor compound dispenser, a soluble corrosion inhibitor compound dispenser, or a chemical fluid absorber or scavenger dispenser to dispense one or more such dispensing compounds that abates or removes an actual or a potential corrosion inhibiting situation. |
