Piezoelectricity: For Power Generation
Abstract: Undeniably, piezoelectric materials are an exciting possibility for serving as a workable energy source; the question is whether technologies at this point in their development are ready for wide-scale application. This requires considering their value in the real context of modern urban environments and ecological conditions. A critical literature review has been carried out in this paper for the identification of the most successful piezoelectric generation techniques that have been …

Activated Carbon Materials as Ideal Adsorbents for the Desulfurization of Fossil Fuels
Abstract: Removal of organosulfur compounds from diesel is of interest from scientific, social, economic, and environmental viewpoints. Production of clean fuel remains a primary goal of the petroleum refining industry. The reduction of sulfur content below stringent ppm levels in diesel fuels becomesincreasingly challenging due to the presence of sterically hindered sulfur compounds, such as 4,6- dialkyldibenzothiophenes, which are resistant to removal over conventional supported mixed sulfide hydrodesulfurization catalysts. Consequently, alternative …

Design and Simulation of Solar Powered Semi-Automatic Grass Cutter
Abstract: The maintenance of large area of grass lawns has always been a tedious task considering continuous human labour and long hours of work. Inorder to reduce the fatigue human work a novel design of automated grass cutting machine powered with a solar panel is designed and simulated for remote operated functioning. The mechanism works with the skeletal frame of a normal grass cutting machine face lifted with ultrasonic sensor for …

Applications of Nanomaterials in Membrane Separation for Effluent Treatment in the Textile Industry
Abstract: The textile industry makes a significant contribution to economic growth. As the global population continues to increase exponentially, production rates are also on the rise to meet this growing demand. Unfortunately, this surge in production often leads to noncompliance with environmental regulations. While the textile industry supports economic development, it also contributes to serious pollution. Various dyes, such as azo dyes, Congo Red (CR), Crystal Violet, methylene blue, and methyl …

Petrographic and Geochemical Characteristics of Deccan Trap Basalts from Belagavi, Karnataka, India
Abstract: The Deccan Trap volcanic province represents one of the largest continental flood basalt provinces in the world and provides significant insights into magma generation and evolution processes. The present study focuses on the petrography and geochemistry of basalts from the Belagavi region, which forms part of the southern extension of the Deccan volcanic province. Petrographic analysis of thin sections reveals that the basalts are mainly composed of plagioclase feldspar and …
