Polystyrene Plastic Waste into Liquid Fuel Using Silica-Alumina Catalyst, Extracted from Rice Husk
Abstract: Catalytic Pyrolysis of Polystyrene (PS) into fuel like products using silica alumina catalyst that was extracted from rice husk was investigated over temperature range of 430–470°C. The output of catalytic pyrolysis was liquid oil, solid residues (char) and gaseous fraction. The product yields as a function of temperature, time and catalyst amount were studied. High conversion of liquid (48.8%) was achieved at 430 and 450ºC in the presence of 12.5 …

A Review of Semiconductor Solar PV Cell and Development of Solar Radiation Estimation Models
Abstract: Today’s life could not be imagined without energy (Power). It has become an integral part of day to day life. Traditionally, dependency was there on conventional sources of energy like coal, hydroelectric etc. But they are limited resources; also, they offer residue or pollution to the environment which is not desirable. These are the main reasons that the researchers inclined themselves towards the maximum exploration and make optimal use of …
