Removal of phospholipids from crude edible oil by PVDF membrane

Removal of phospholipid is the first step in the process of filtering crude edible oil. Membrane separation has been proposed often as an alternative to the conventional process. Until now, the instability of polymeric membrane in organic solvent was the main issue but in this work we synthesized PVDF membrane of different composition to evaluate their flux and rejection properties. Degumming experiment of crude peanut oil miscella were performed using two PVDF samples. Among them fresh sample (M-3) gave higher flux of 47.5 LMH and rejection of 94% with increasing stability.

Current scenario of credit card In India and role of CBIL in credit cards

Oxford Dictionary and Thesaurus define “credit card authorizing purchase of goods on credit”. Credit cards are innovative instruments in the area of financial services offered by commercial banks. The concept of credit cards was first developed by Diners’ club a credit card is a plastic card having a magnetic strip now recently replaced by chip card issued by a bank or business authorizing the holder to buy goods or services on credit.

Balancing of the production line in a manufacturing industry to improve productivity

This work mainly focuses on the application of line balancing to minimize idle time of workstation in the production line. The methodology adopted includes calculation of cycle time of the process, identifying the non –value-added activities, calculation of total workload on station and distribution of workload on each workstation by line balancing, in order to improve the efficiency of line. A production line of a bearing retainer component manufactured by Porwal Auto Components Pvt Ltd, Pithampur, Dhar (M.P) is considered for this research work and time study is performed in order to determine the standard time for each process. Then, rank positional weighted method (RPW) is evaluated with the help of standardized data to solve the assembly line problem and defines the line efficiency which provides a better productivity in the existing flow line by reducing the idle time.

Capital punishment

Capital Punishment is also called as Death Penalty. The term “Capital” has been derived from the Latin term “Capitalist” which means concerning the head. Hence, to be sentenced a death penalty or capital punishment means “to lose one’s head”. It is sanctioned by the state/ government where the person who has committed the crime or an offense at a serious or an extreme level is sentenced to death. The act or process of carrying out the procedure of the sentence is known as an “Execution”. The death penalty can be defended or denounced on the fields of equity or utility. Although, many countries have abolished the death penalty there are still many countries where the practice of capital punishment is still followed for the heinous crimes committed by the criminals. When such loathsome crimes are committed, following the practices of capital punishment helps in curtailing and deterring such crimes due to the fear which warns the other individuals from doing the same. Capital punishment can be avowed that it is the greatest deterrent to criminals and potential criminals. When such kinds of crimes are committed, the execution of death penalty is much cheaper on the grounds of expenses incurred by the state or it can be considered cost-effective when compared to serving life imprisonment. There are individuals who are serial, harsh, aggressive killers and criminals who don’t belong in general public population because they exist among the innocent population would create fear in the minds of people and take away the peace and harmony with which the people live and grow with the flow of life. When such harsh and serious steps are taken, it warns and awakens people that taking away the life of an innocent person is easy but giving away or surrendering your own life is not. The popular expression in the bible clearly mentions, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth”. This is an appropriate statement for the capital punishment. There are many statistics that show that there is a decrease and reduction in the crimes committed or offenses made due to the effect of capital punishment. Thus, in order for abolishing terrorism, rapes and murders etc., such practices should not be abolished and should continue to exist in order for the existence of the fear in the minds of people.

Stabilization of black cotton soil using waste fishing net

There is Black cotton soil in most parts of central and western parts of India and covering approximately 20% of the total area of India and it has been a challenge to highway engineers since this soil is highly susceptible to moisture changes. Soil stabilization is a technique to improve the engineering characteristics of the soil. Certain soils possess undesired properties making their use in the constructions very difficult. These include high permeability, high compressibility, and reduced shear strength. Modification of soil by chemical admixtures is a common stabilization method for such soils. The main objectives of the proposed project is to determine the index and engineering properties of Black cotton soil, determination of engineering properties of fish net fibre modified soil, reducing swelling tendency of moist compacted Black cotton soils, to check the efficacy of fish net fiber (Grid type) reinforced soil as a fill material through laboratory model studies. Soil stabilization using fishing net can help to enhance soil strength, stabilize near-surface soil layers and mitigate the risk of soil liquefaction. For roads with heavy traffic and locations of extreme climatic conditions, soil stabilization is generally recommended and the method can be adopted after a proper study. This investigation aims at checking the feasibility of using waste fishing net fibers and improving the strength and compaction characteristics of the soil. Waste fishing net fibers are added in a layer-wise and an optimum configuration has arrived.

Review Paper

Faces victimization annotations supported external data from videos

This bill of exchange takes a look at the problem of greatness back naming among unrestricted videos together with user-provided metadata. Instead of relying on unique back labels because of supervised knowledge, a prosperous set of associations robotically derived beside video content then data out of image area or associative cues is leveraged because of unverified surface labeling. The relations allude in imitation of the appearances regarding faces under distinctive spatiotemporal contexts or their visual similarities. The abilities consist of Web pix small tagged along greatness names and the Fame convivial networks. The associations or facts have elegantly encoded the use of conditional loosely subject (CRF) for memorandum inference. Two variations about back gloss are considered: within-video yet between-video back labeling. The preceding addresses the problem on scrappy and noisy labels between metadata, the place invalid labor over names is allowed a problem at any time been modest among the literature. The concluding, in addition, rectifies the mistakes of metadata, especially in accordance with right bogus labels or gloss faces along lacking names of the metadata over a video, by using allowing for a group of socially related videos because of league label inference.
