Modernizing Agriculture: The Evolution of a Multipurpose Farm Machine
Abstract: In India, a nation reliant on agriculture, 70% of the population makes their living from farming. However, we can see that as the population grows, the farm is divided up among the individuals; as a result, Indian farmers often own just two acres of land. Farmers also practice traditional farming since they are extremely poor and cannot afford to buy tractors or other expensive equipment. In general, bullocks, horses, and …

Selective Recovery of Valuable Chemicals from Tire Pyrolysis Oil: A Sustainable Approach
Abstract: The generation of waste/scrap/end-of-life tires (ELTs) poses severe environmental challenges globally. For the disposal of huge numbers of ELTs (generated every year) using conventional recycling methods, like as landfill or incineration, are not preferred due to their adverse environmental impacts. To overcome this problem, an alternative and promising technology is developed -the pyrolysis of waste tires. Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process that decomposes organic materials (Rubber Hydrocarbons) in the absence …
