Expermental and Modeling Studies on the Generation of Hydrogen Rich Syngas through Oxy-Steam Gasification of Biomass
(2018-02-20)
The present work focuses on the study of biomass gasification process for generating hydrogen rich synthetic gas with oxy-steam as reactants using experiments and modeling studies. Utilization of the syngas as a fuel in ...
Integrated Wastewater Management for Tank Restoration in Urban Fringe Areas
Urban fringe water bodies are often seriously affected by urban wastewater including partially treated sewage entering it and degrading it. Sustainability requirements necessitate that such wastewaters are treated and ...
Design and Characterisation of Rotating Gliding Arc Reactor for Dilute Hydrocarbon Conversion Applications: Experiments and Simulations Studies
In recent years, non-thermal plasma technology is becoming popular for chemical applications involving conversion/abatement/decomposition of compounds of interest. The specialty of non-thermal plasmas is to activate chemical ...
Investigations into Incineration of Sanitary Napkin Waste Using Single Chamber Incinerator
Commercially available disposable sanitary napkins are the most common method of menstrual hygiene management in most urban regions of India (van Eijk, 2016) (Mathiyalagen et al., 2017). It is estimated that in India a ...
Algal Bioprocess Development for Sustainable Wastewater Treatment and Biofuel Production
(2017-11-24)
Rapid urbanization has led to the generation of enormous wastewater after independence. The domestic wastewater generated in municipalities is rich in nutrients such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus along with other ions. ...
Integrability Evaluation Methodology for Building Integrated Photovoltaic's (BIPV) : A Study in Indian Climatic Conditions
(2018-01-02)
India’s geographical location renders it with ample solar-energy potential ranging from 4-7 kWh/m2 daily and 2,300–3,200 sunshine hours annually. The diverse nature of human settlements (scattered low-rise to dense high-rise) ...
Granular Media Supported Microbial Remediation of Nitrate Contaminated Drinking Water
(2018-01-11)
Increasing nitrate concentration in ground water from improper disposal of sewage and excessive use of fertilizers is deleterious to human health as ingestion of nitrate contaminated water can cause methaemoglobinemia in ...
Autoflocculating Mixotrophic Algal Consortia Approach to Sustainable Wastewater Treatement
(2017-10-26)
The phenomenon of rapid algal blooms in response to nutrient overloads has been adapted to treat synthetic domestic wastewater. Various algal consortia collected from several eutrophied water bodies were subject to high ...
In-Cylinder Experimental and Modeling Studies on Producer Gas Fuelled Operation of Spark Iginited Gas Engines
(2018-08-10)
The current work, through experimental and numerical investigations, analyses the process and cycle level deviations in engine response on fuelling multi-cylinder natural gas engines with producer gas. Producer gas is a ...
Algiculture - A Novel Algae Cultivation Technique for Sustinable Algal Biofuel Production and Capture of Green House Gases
Algal biofuel has been shown to have great potential to solve the World’s sustainable energy crisis but technologies for large-scale cultivation are still elusive. While photobioreactors meet very high value algal products ...
