Biogas: Usefulness, existing technology and major hurdles
Abstract: There is strong scientific evidence that the average temperature of the earth’s surface is rising and this may be attribute to increased concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2), and other greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere as released by burning fossil fuels. One of the chief sources of greenhouse gases is burning of fossil fuels. Biogas from biomass appears to have potential as an alternative energy source, which is potentially rich …

Lightining Future With Non Degradable Waste
Abstract: This project focuses on addressing the growing problem of non-biodegradable waste, which creates major environmental and management issues. It proposes a smart system for waste segregation and energy production using the Arduino UNO R4 platform. The system classifies waste into three types dry, wet, and metal by using various sensors such as proximity, moisture, infrared, temperature, and weight sensors. After segregation, dry waste is sent to an incineration chamber where …
