Analysis of biogas plant for VESP college canteen

Facing energy crisis and climate change, the world is in need of a green, efficient, carbon-neutral energy source to replace fossil fuels. The search for energy alternatives involving locally available and renewable resources is one of the main concerns of governments, scientists, and business people worldwide. Biogas, formed by anaerobic digestion of organic materials, makes sustainable, reliable, and renewable energy possible. There is potential for biogas production from kitchen waste, and at the same time, the waste itself can be treated to minimize the environmental impact and provide nutrient-rich organic fertilizer. The study’s main objective was to design an anaerobic digester that utilizes food waste to generate biogas for use in Vivekanand Education Society Polytechnic Institute’s (VESP) kitchen. The institute’s main source of energy was mainly wood fuel, supplemented with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) which is very expensive. Hence this project may help VESP to generate Biogas by utilizing food waste, which is less expensive than Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and also environmentally friendly.

Analysis of underground rectangular water tank for the computation of shear force and bending moment coefficients

Rectangular tanks are common as it is use for the storage of liquids such as water, oil, petroleum products, compressed gases, etc. Analysis of such tanks is quite difficult. So, in order to analyze these tanks, various methods are used. Mostly Approximate method and Finite Element Method (FEM) are used to analyse water tanks. This paper presents a literature review on the analysis of rectangular tanks by using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with the help of STAAD Pro software. The design and analysis of rectangular tanks requires various design charts and involves lengthy and monotonous calculations. To avoid these tedious calculations various codes and books are available which provide charts for shear force and bending moment coefficients for the design of water tanks with different support conditions. This paper gives an idea for an approach to the analysis of rectangular tanks by Finite Element Analysis (FEA).

Converting chemical disposal plant Into artificial lake

Converting chemical disposal plant into artificial lake can be very useful for the areas where there are chemical industries nearby as they dumb waste chemicals or chemicals which are not useful as soil is not good due to chemical disposed, we cannot construct buildings or any structure over there to overcome this problem we have come up with this project that is converting chemical disposal plant into artificial lake.

Analytical method development of a formulation of transfluthrin, piperonyl butoxide, and cyfluthrin by GC-FID analytical technique

A simple validated Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization (GC-FID) method has been created for a mixture of insecticide and a chemical separation and quantitative measurement of Transfluthrin, Piperonyl butoxide, and Cyfluthrin formulation. Because it is time-saving, dependable, cost-effective, and repeatable, this GC approach is required. Developing a simple and cost-effective approach is difficult; yet, a GC analytical method validates one's capacity to meet regulatory / SANCO standards. In the current scenario, this pesticide mixture is necessary to manage all pesticides with a single dose application. Insecticides like Transfluthrin, Piperonyl butoxide, and Cyfluthrin are used to efficiently manage insects in crop plants. There are limited separation and determination analytical methods for such an important application of combined pesticides. The simple analytical instrument GC with Flam Ionisation Detector (GC/FID) was used to detect 0.01ppm LOQ level, this approach analyses Transfluthrin, Piperonyl butoxide, and Cyfluthrin mixtures. A Rxi-5ms capillary column was used to isolate these three compounds. A 30m capillary column with a 0.25mm ID and 0.50m length was loaded into the Shimadzu GC (model: GC-2010). A pre-installed, confirmed GC solution software equipped Shimadzu instrument was used for separation and quantification, as well as data processing and computations. These three chemicals were identified and quantified separately. In a single study, the simple GC method provides a quick way to determine the total amount of these three compounds

Nudge theory and its application for modern e-commerce markets

Nudge theory can mainly be credited to two academics—Richard H. Thaler and Cass R. Sunstein. Thaler and Sunstein defined their concept as: “A nudge, as we will use the term, is an aspect of the choice architecture that alters people's behavior in a predictable way without forbidding any op)ons or significantly changing their economic incentives. To count as a mere nudge, the intervention must be easy and cheap" Nudge Theory has great implications in many fields such as public health, financial markets, government, fundraising, etc. In this paper, I aim to explore the question “What are some nudges that e-commerce companies exploit to increase sales”. I have aimed to structure this paper in chronological order of the nudges that a consumer is expected to come across when buying any product. For this, I have gone onto the popular e-commerce website amazon.com and seen some of the possible nudges used there are. At the end of the paper, I also discuss the limitations of nudge theory

Using the internet of things (IoT’s) to gain elicitation results

Elicitating with Employees help a Business Analyst understand whether the mindset of a workforce is in sync with the Stakeholders, hence, helps determine a healthy working environment. They mostly use methods like Collaborative Games, Mind Mapping, Focus Groups, Observation, etc. These methods rely on the communication skills of the Business Analyst more than data, which could be a drawback, as it may not give accurate results and make the job of Business Analyst, a lot harder. Analysts and employees, or even clients, often speak in different general languages, with analysts often being more technical in nature, while clients will often speak more from a business perspective. This makes common understanding difficult. To make this process easier, this paper has come with a solution using Internet of Things (IoT), which could show Employee performance in the form of data, and can be used to gain clearer insights on Employee opinions and characters.
