Automated system for monitoring micro-climatic conditions for farms

This study proposes an advanced solution for monitoring the weather conditions and adopting new farming techniques for the overall growth of the economy. It has been found that 30% of our country’s GDP comes from farming which proves that agriculture is the backbone of our country. Most of the farmers in our country rely on traditional farming However, traditional farming lacks technological advancements and affects our country’s economy in several ways. Most of the problems faced by our country’s farmers are lack of mechanization, improper irrigation system, uncertain climate conditions. Also, there is a growing trend of using hazardous chemicals and improper use of fertilizers which has an adverse effect on the ecosystem.

Waste oil powered burner

Due to continuous consumption, increasing energy demand and harmful exhaust gases of fossil fuels in transportation and power generation lead to guessing about alternative fuels. The chemical and physical properties of waste cooking oil were measured and Analysed according to ASTM standards.Their utilization as cooking fuel can bring numerous benefits not only for urban but also for rural communities. The paper focuses on characterizing VCOs(vegetable cooking oil) and UCOs(used cooking oil) as fuels for the household cooking application using a pressurized cooking stove. Physical properties such as auto-ignition point, auto-ignition time, flash point, density and viscosity of VCOs(vegetable cooking oil) play the role in combustion. Some properties of these oils were measured and characterized. Waste cooking oil was preheated to 90°C before oil nozzle. The oil was used directly used as a fuel in the pressurized cooking stove, it is possible to improve the combustion performance, thus by reducing the ignition time and incomplete combustion. The main target is to determine the quality and performances of the oils combustion. Crude VCO(vegetable cooking oil) gave the fastest auto-ignition time 30 s when compared with the other oils than other oils.

SHE-PWN technique incorporating series-sub multilevel inverter topology for V/F control induction motor

SHE-PWM Techniques are the concept of based on the decomposition of PWM voltage/current waveform using Fourier theory and formulations of given waveform properties. Generally, CHB Multilevel inverter using H Bridge Topology for each level output connected in series, Series sub topology using in Multilevel inverter reduced no of switches it can be reduced switching loss and price for the same level. In industrial application various types of control available for speed control induction motor. V/f control of induction motor is most widely used in industry because it’s simple, reliable and constant torque method. Here provide seven-level series sub multilevel inverter fed v/f control induction motor this inverter topology with SHE-PWM Technique eliminate dominant harmonic like 5th,7th,11th,13th and highly reduced THD of the output voltage. Performance of the Induction motor in this system has been verified in MATLAB/simulink® environment.

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.
