Farm-Scale Biogas Generation and Upgradation as Transportation Fuel
Abstract: Biogas from the bio degradable biomass like slurry, agricultural wastes, and kitchen wastes mainly consists of the methane, carbon di oxide and the trace amount of sulfur and hydrogen. Methane has a higher calorific value to be used as a transportation fuel and the residual waste after decomposition of biomass can be effectively used as fertilizer. However, the presence of other constituents along with methane significantly hinders the in cylinder …

Continuous Renewable Energy Generation by Solar Radiation
Abstract: The world is seeing a changing trend from conventional cooking system to most reliable and predominant solar cooking system which is going wild commercially. This ideal attempts a heat energy storage for power generation in which a Molten Salt is proposed for Thermal Energy Storage for Concentrating Solar cooking systems. In the concept numerous large, flat, sun-tracking mirrors, known as trough are used which focuses sunlight onto a receiver at …

DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF LEAF SPRING OF AUTOMOBILE
Abstract: - Material reduction plays a significant role in present day. Automobile industry is one of the major industries in the market which is looking for weight reduction for its various components like engine, chassis, leaf springs, bumper, steering column, etc. With material reduction, both cost and weight of the component reduces. Using composites instead of steel can reduce weight and cost for automobiles which is a good sign for manufacturers …

Feasibility studies on use of solar thermal energy for electricity production with thermo-electric generators – a case study in India
Abstract: The possibility of producing electricity using solar thermal energy harnesses through flat plate collectors working with water and commercial thermoelectric generator modules has been explored for eight locations in India. This is an alternative to solar photovoltaic electricity production. The most suitable site for setting up such facilities has been identified on the basis of total electricity generation per annum. Even though the overall energy collection efficiency of such an …

Nuclear waste heat and renewable energy derived hydrogen: Preliminary feasibility analysis
Abstract: Hydrogen, a possible carbon free energy resource of the future, can be obtained in a sustainable manner from abundantly available resource like water through low temperature, low pressure water electrolysis. This work examines the techno-economic feasibility aspects of a water electrolysis based hydrogen production plant of capacity 1000-10000 Nm3/hr, when coupled with a typical nuclear power plant in India and renewable energy resources in novel ways. The nuclear waste heat …
