Low Head Hydraulic Pumping – Design, Simulation, and Field Validation of Ram and Turbine Pump in Indian River Basin
Water energy is essential for economic expansion and human development. Social progress
and economic growth depend on meeting water energy needs sustainably. The use of non renewable energy sources for pumping water to ...
Exploring End-of-Life Photovoltaic (PV) Panel as a Building Material: A Case of Crystalline Silicon PV
The renewable energy share in the energy mix worldwide is rising sharply to mitigate
climate change, with Solar Photovoltaics (PV) carrying a large share of 3.6%. However,
the end-of-life (EoL) management of decommissioned ...
Examining Climatic Response, Vulnerability and Adaptation in Rural Indian Dwellings to Climate Change: Case studies in three climatic zones
Buildings have evolved traditionally based on local resources and skills. They predominantly relied on passive climate-response mechanisms to provide indoor comfort. However, contemporary buildings, made primarily of bricks, ...
Adaptation and Characterization of Fossilized Hydrocarbon Gas Turbine Combustor for Operation with Green Fuel(s): Experimental and Numerical Investigation
Decarbonizing energy conversion systems necessitates the adaptation of conventional fossil-fuel-based systems, which have been designed and optimized over the past century for operation with fossilized hydrocarbons, to ...
Contaminated Site Investigation and Remediation Using Modified Nano Zero Valent Iron Particles
Rapid industrialization has boosted economic growth but also increased contaminants in air, water, and soil. Improper disposal of municipal solid waste and industrial effluents has rendered many groundwater sources unfit ...
Foaming of Surface Waterbodies: A Comprehensive Study on Causes, Persistence, Seasonality, and Mitigation Strategies
Foaming waterbodies have emerged as a significant global concern due to their adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems, offensive odour emissions, disruption of daily activities in nearby areas, and visual unpleasantness. ...
Thermochemical Conversion of Lignocellulosic Biomass to Generate Hydrogen Rich Synthesis Gas for Hydrogen Production: An Experimental and Thermodynamic Study Using Oxy-Steam as The Gasification Agent
Hydrogen can help decarbonize and bring a paradigm shift in the global energy mix. Green hydrogen, with its potential to mitigate carbon emission, offers an inexhaustible supply – free from the constraint of finite reserves. ...
Sustainability Assessment of Second Generation Biofuel Supply Chain within Circular Economy Framework
The global demand for renewable energy sources has intensified and, the second-generation
ethanol has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional fossil fuels. This study presents a
comprehensive sustainability ...
Studies on Processed Granulated Blast Furnace Slag as Fine Aggregate in Mortars and Concrete
Fine aggregate is essential for the preparation of mortar and concrete. There are attempts to find alternatives to the river sand as the natural sources for fine aggregates are dwindling. Currently, sand mining from river ...
Biofilm Reactors for Greywater Treatment
Greywater (GW) is the fraction of wastewater discharged in houses that has not been contaminated with faeces. The average volumes of greywater generated in the households of Bengaluru varies between 40-70 litres/cap/day ...
