Biomass can be converted into energy through direct combustion, gasification, or biochemical processes. Direct combustion involves burning biomass to produce heat, while gasification converts it into a combustible gas mixture through incomplete combustion. Biochemical processes use bacteria and microorganisms to produce fuels like methane from raw biomass through fermentation or anaerobic digestion. Anaerobic digestion of wet biomass produces biogas, which is around 55-65% methane, through decomposition by anaerobic bacteria.

Economics of biogas plants and their role in saving the environment
This document discusses biogas production through anaerobic digestion. It begins by outlining the composition of biogas and common organic materials used for production. These include cattle dung, kitchen waste, and crop residue. The document then describes the 3-phase digestion process and provides breakdowns of gas yield from different feedstocks. Key uses of biogas are also listed, such as cooking, lighting, and power generation. Installation rates of biogas plants in India are then assessed, followed by economics of family-sized plants and their role in environmental protection.
vegetable waste management
(1) Vegetable waste generated from processing operations in India presents waste management challenges due to the large volumes generated and lack of infrastructure.
(2) Common vegetable waste includes peels, shells, and other scraps. If not properly managed, it can cause water and soil pollution and spread disease.
(3) Effective waste management includes characterization, segregation, reduction, reuse, recycling, and proper treatment and disposal. Options include composting, anaerobic digestion, and conversion to energy sources like biogas.

This document provides information about biogas, including its composition, production through fixed dome and floating gas holder biogas plants, advantages as a fuel, uses, and recent developments. Biogas is produced through anaerobic digestion of biomass like animal waste, plant waste, and food waste. It is composed primarily of methane and can be used as a clean fuel for cooking, lighting, electricity generation, and transportation. Fixed dome plants are simpler to construct but more expensive floating gas holder plants require less maintenance. Biogas is a renewable source of energy that can help reduce pollution and provide fertilizer.
BIOFUELS AND THEIR FUTURE PERESPECTIVES
Biofuels provide a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels and are becoming increasingly important. There are several types of biofuels like biogas produced from anaerobic digestion, bioethanol commonly from sugarcane or corn, and biodiesel usually from oils. Countries like Brazil and India have developed biofuel industries using their agricultural resources. New technologies allow extraction of oils from plants like jatropha and algae for biodiesel production. Microalgae have the highest oil yield per hectare and could potentially meet global fuel demands if commercially produced. Overall, biofuels offer environmental and economic benefits but large-scale production faces challenges.

Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

Biogas production
- 1. Soil Microbiology Submitted To- Dr Surender Singh Submitted By- Ashwani M.Sc. 2nd year 180669 Topic- Production of biogas
- 2. Biogas Biogas is a clean and efficient fuel. It is a mixture of: • Methane (CH4) • Carbon dioxide (CO2) • Hydrogen (H2) • Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) The chief constituent of biogas is methane (65%).
- 4. Substrate- • Plant & animal biomass • Animal biomass – cattle dung, manure from poultry, goats & sheep slaughter-house & fishery wastes. • Agricultural wastes also used
- 5. Process of Biogas Production • Biogas production process (Anaerobic digestion) is a multiple-stage process in which some main stages are: • Liquefaction • Acid Production • Acetate Production • Methane Production
- 6. (1)LIQUEFACTION • Complex organic matter is degraded to basic structure by hydraulic bacteria. • Protein - Polypeptide and Amino Acid • Fat - Glycerine and Fatty Acid • Amylase - Monosaccharides and Polysaccharides (2) ACID PRODUCTION (Acidogenesis) • Simple organic matters are converted into H2 and CO2 • Acting bacteria in this process are called hydrogen-producing bacteria and acid-producing bacteria.
- 7. 3.ACETATE PRODUCTION (Acetogenesis) • The short-chain fatty acids are metabolized by syntrophic acetogenic and homoacetogenic bacteria into acetate, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen. (4) METHANE PRODUCTION (Methanogenesis) • In this process, acetic acid, H2, CO2, are converted into CH4. • Methane-producing bacteria have strict PH requirement and low adaptability to temperature. • Ex- Methanosarcina barkeri, Methanobacterium omelianskii
- 9. Factors affecting methane formation- pH- • 6-8 • Acidic medium lowers methane formation. Temperature • Fluctuation ↓ methane formation – inhibit growth of methanogens. • 30-40 ℃ Nitrogen concentration • ↑ N2 - ↓ growth of bacteria - ↓ CH4 C:N ratio • Micro-organisms in a biogas plant needs both N and C . • Research has shown that the methanogenic bacteria work best with a C/N ratio 30:1.
- 11. Biogas plants- • There are two types of biogas plants in usage for the production of biogas. These are: The fixed- dome type of biogas plant The floating gas holder type of biogas plant
- 12. Fixed dome type of Biogas Plant
- 13. Floating gas holder type of biogas plant
- 14. Uses of biogas • Domestic fuel • For street lighting • Generation of electricity • If compressed, it can replace CNG (compressed natural gas) for use in vehicles
- 15. Applications The Biogas Train “Amanda” Sweden A biogas bus, Sweden
- 16. Benefits of Biogas • Availability of power at affordable rates • Reduces pollution • Reduces usage of fossil fuels • Saves on the environment (Reduces deforestation) • Improves living standards in rural areas • Reduces global warming • Produces good quality enriched manure to improve soil fertility. • Effective and convenient way for sanitary disposal of organic wastes, improving the hygienic conditions. • As a smokeless domestic fuel it reduces the incidence of eye and lung diseases.
- 17. Limitations of biogas plants • Initial cost of installation of the plant is high. • Number of cattle owned by an average family of farmers is inadequate to feed a biogas plant.
- 18. Recent Developments • With the many benefits of biogas, it is starting to become a popular source of energy and is starting to be used in the United States more. • On 5 October 2010, biogas was injected into the UK gas grid for the first time. As of September 2013, there are about 130 non-sewage biogas plants in the UK. • Germany is Europe's biggest biogas producer and the market leader in biogas technology. • To create awareness and associate the people interested in biogas, the Indian Biogas Associationwas formed. India's Ministry of New and Renewable Energy offers some subsidy per model constructed.
- 19. Conclusion Biogas is a clean source of energy. Biogas plants have been in operation for a long period of time, especially in rural areas around the globe. The research organizations should focus on newer efficient low-cost designs. The governments can play important role by introducing different legal frameworks, education schemes and the availability of technology and simultaneously creating more awareness and providing more subsidies.
