    Nowadays, increasing population, widespread urbanization, rise in living standards together with versatile use of polymers have caused non-biodegradable polymeric wastes affecting the environment a chronic global problem, simultaneously, the existing high energy demand in our society is a matter of great concern. Hence forth, this review article provides an insight into the technological approach of pyrolysis emphasizing catalytic pyrolysis for conversion of polymeric wastes into energy products and presents an alternative waste management technique which is a leap towards developing sustainable environment. Pyrolysis of waste non-biodegradable polymer materials involves controlled thermal decomposition in the absence of oxygen, cracking their macromolecules into lower molecular weight ones, resulting into the formation of a wide range of products from hydrogen, hydrocarbons to coke. Nanocatalyzed pyrolysis is a recommended solution to the low thermal conductivity of polymers, promoting faster reactions in breaking the C-C bonds at lower temperatures, denoting less energy consumption and enabling enhancement in the process selectivity, whereby higher value added products are generated with increased yield. Nanotechnology plays an indispensable role in academic research as well as in industrial applications. Existing reviews illustrate that one of the oldest application field of nanotechnology is in the arena of nanocatalysis. Nanocatalysis closes the gap between homo and heterogeneous catalyses while combines their advantageous characteristics and positive aspects, reducing the respective drawbacks. During the current nanohype, nanostructured catalysts are esteemed materials and their exploration provide promising solutions for challenges from the perspective of cost and factors influencing catalytic activity, due to their featured high surface area to volume ratio which render enhanced properties with respect to the bulk catalyst.

    Surfactant-modified alumina (SMA) was prepared and used for the removal of Mn(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) from aqueous environment. Batch studies were conducted to find out optimum pH of the medium, adsorbent dose of SMA, and contact time. They were further optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). In the present study, a three-factor, three-level Box–Behnken experimental design was used to derive a second-order polynomial equation and construct three-dimensional (3D) surface plots and two-dimensional (2D) contour plots to examine the response. The level of significance for each independent variable and their interaction effects were examined by means of analysis of variance (ANOVA), F test, and Student’s t test results. In addition, the percentage effects of the different factors and their interactions on the removal efficacy were also investigated by plotting a Pareto chart. The models were validated for accurate prediction of the percentage (%) removal by performing numerical optimization. The optimum values of three tested variables were determined at pH 6.2, 8.2, and 5.3; adsorbent dose = 20, 5, and 4 g/L; and contact time = 30, 60, and 75 min for the adsorption of Mn(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) ions, and the corresponding removal efficiency was found to be 77.04, 93.83, and 97.23 %, respectively.

    ABSTRACTThe high cost of the bridging liquid subdues the implementation and commercialization of oil agglomeration process. To overcome this problem, waste oils from different sectors were used in this present study. The performance of the process was assessed based on the responses like ash rejection and organic matter recovery. The aim of the present study was to investigate the usage of waste oils from different sectors and to optimize and analyze the behavioral pattern showcased by different variables (pulp density, oil dosage, agglomeration time and oil type) using response surface methodology (Box-Behnken design). Experimental investigation shows that the optimum pulp density, oil dosage, agglomeration time and oil type condition obtained as 3%, 15%, 15 min and waste engine oil, respectively. At optimum condition, the % ash rejection and % organic matter recovery obtained as 63.94% and 81.8%, respectively.

    Abstract A transient analysis of a double basin solar still has been presented. Explicit expressions have been derived for the temperatures of various components of the inverted absorber double basin solar still and it’s efficiency. The effect of water depth in the lower basin on the performance of the system has been investigated comprehensively. For enunciation of the analytical results, numerical calculations have been made using meteorological parameters for a typical winter day in Delhi. It has been observed that the daily yield of an inverted absorber double basin solar still increases with the increase of water depth in the lower basin for a given water mass in the upper basin.

    In this review article, discuss the many ways utilized by the dairy sector to treat pollutants, emphasizing their influence on the quality and efficiency with which contamination is removed. It focuses on biotechnology possibilities for valorizing dairy waste in particular. The findings revealed that dairy waste may be treated using physicochemical, biological, and biotechnological techniques. Notably, this article highlighted the possibility of dairy waste being used as a feedstock not only for the generation of biogas, bioethanol, biohydrogen, microbial fuel cells, lactic acid, and fumaric acid via microbial technology but also for the production of biooil and biochar by pyrolysis. In addition, this article critically evaluates the many treatment techniques available for recovering energy and materials from dairy waste, their combinations, and implementation prospects. Valorization of dairy waste streams presents an opportunity to extend the dairy industry's presence in the fermented functional beverage sector.

    In the present investigation, the process of diffusion of salt in a vertical column of liquid, subjected to temperature variations of the types T(x) = constant, linear ( = a + bx) and parabolic ( = a + bx - cx2); with a constant concentration difference between the top and the bottom (0 and 25 per cent, respectively) is studied. It is seen that a linear temperature gradient, T(x) = a + bx, leads to a near convex parabolic salt concentration profile with maximum deviations increasing from 13.5 per cent (at 40°C) to 14.8 per cent (at 70°C) and eventually to 15.7 per cent (at 90°C) with respect to the linear concentration value of 12.5 per cent (by weight) at the midpoint. Conversely, the parabolic temperature profile as well as the modified profile due to the Soret effect leads to near cubic salt profiles which differ only by 2–3 per cent in the upper half of the pond. However, they show a point of inflexion at larger depths near the bottom around which the convex profiles change over and become concave. Subsequently, these studies have been extended to compute the salinity profiles of thermal configurations of the operational solar pond.

    Abstract A simple periodic analysis of an underground solar water heater is given in this paper. The model is validated against some earlier experimental and theoretical results. The earlier models have considered heat transfer at the boundaries of the water tank along with considering the whole water mass to be at one uniform temperature, this makes their models complicated and, therefore, they require more computational time. The present model assumes the temperature to be continuous at the boundaries of the water tank.

    The challenges of providing electricity to rural households are manifold. Ever increasing demand–supply gap, crumbling electricity transmission and distribution infrastructure, high cost of delivered electricity are a few of these. Use of renewable energy technologies for meeting basic energy needs of rural communities has been promoted by the Governments world over for many decades. Photovoltaic (PV) technology is one of the first among several renewable energy technologies that was adopted globally as well as in India for meeting basic electricity needs of rural areas that are not connected to the grid. This paper attempts at reviewing and analyzing PV literature pertaining to decentralized rural electrification into two main categories—(1) experiences from rural electrification and technology demonstration programmes covering barriers and challenges in marketing and dissemination; institutional and financing approaches; and productive and economic applications, (2) techno-economic aspects including system design methodologies and approaches; performance evaluation and monitoring; techno-economic comparison of various systems; and environmental implications and life cycle analysis. The paper discusses the emerging trends in its concluding remarks.

    AbstractThe new developments in cookstove design have been made for better usage of sustainable energy and reducing the worse impact of climate change on environment. A cookstove is a combustion device which liberates lot of heat energy during cooking. In the recent developed design of TEG integrated forced draft biomasscookstove, the liberated waste heat energy is utilized for generation of electricity with the help of a thermoelectric generator. A power of 5W is achievedthrough the thermoelectric generator. The generated electricity is stored in a Li-ion battery and used further for running a 12Vd.c. fan, lighting a LED light, and charging a mobile phone. The novelty in charging a Li-ion battery is to run a fan for domestic biomass cookstovefor cleaner combustion. The fan is also used for cooling one side of TEG through heat sink for improving electrical performance of TEG and thus improving the combustion of the cookstove. This cookstove has been deployed in the rural areas to check its usability, viability, electrical and thermal performance under the umbrella of clean combustion.

    Abstract Calophyllum inophyllum biodiesel is seems to be a potential alternative fuel for diesel engine applications due to its non-edible form, easily cultivable nature and abundant availability everywhere in the world. Isobutanol is the next generation biofuel which can be used as partial substitute to petroleum diesel or biodiesel due to its better solvency character. In the present study, a comparative assessment on diesel engine characteristics is carried out using isobutanol as an additive with diesel and biodiesel in the form of binary and ternary blends. Five blends are prepared by 20% of isobutanol with diesel and biodiesel as D80IB20 and B80IB20 along with three ternary blends of diesel-biodiesel-isobutanol using 10%, 15% and 20% concentrations of isobutanol. Experimental study in a diesel engine revealed that the brake thermal efficiency is improved by 3.19% for 10% isobutanol addition in diesel-biodiesel blends with significant improvement in brake specific fuel consumption when compared to biodiesel. All binary and ternary blends of isobutanol reduce CO emission by 13–59% than that of diesel fuel with substantial penalty in HC emission. Meanwhile, when compared to biodiesel, the oxides of nitrogen emission is decreased by 8.16% for isobutanol addition with diesel and biodiesel in terms of binary and ternary blends but higher than that of conventional diesel fuel. Furthermore, momentous improvement is observed in heat release rate during isobutanol addition for B80IB20, D70B10IB20, D70B15IB15 and D70B20IB10 fuel blends when compared to pure biodiesel. Finally, it is noted that isobutanol would be a feasible additive for the partial replacement of diesel and biodiesel in the blends for diesel engine applications.
