Thermodynamic Analysis and Slow Pyrolysis Product Characterization are Used to Assess Rice Straw for Bio-char Production
Abstract: This work explores the viability of using slow pyrolysis to produce bio-char using rice straw as a feedstock. The objective is to characterize the resulting bio char and analyse the thermodynamic processes involved in its formation. Rice straw, an abundant agricultural residue, was subjected to slow pyrolysis under controlled conditions. The produced bio char was characterized using various analytical techniques, including scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis, and surface area measurements. …

Convolutional Neural Network Based Ripeness Detection of Fruits
Abstract: The accurate and efficient assessment of fruit ripeness plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality of fruits and optimizing supply chain management. This paper presents a novel approach for the automated detection of apple and banana ripeness using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The suggested method supports the capability of CNNs to learn hierarchical features from images, variations in color and shape associated with different ripeness stages. The online dataset …
