This document summarizes a student project on wind farms. It includes an introduction to wind farms and their components. It then discusses factors that affect wind farms, types of wind farms, the largest onshore and offshore wind farms worldwide and in India. It outlines the pros and cons of wind farms, their development and impacts in India. In conclusion, it states that the positive impacts of wind energy outweigh the negatives when judged against other energy sources.
Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy. Modern wind turbines are much more efficient than older designs, able to generate 250-300 kilowatts compared to older models generating around 30 kilowatts. Wind turbines work by using wind to turn blades which spin a shaft connected to a generator, producing electricity. They are mounted on towers to access stronger winds higher off the ground. While wind energy has advantages like being renewable and producing no emissions, it also has disadvantages like dependence on wind conditions and higher initial costs than some other energy sources.
Solar thermal power generation systems use mirrors to collect sunlight and produce steam by solar heat to drive turbines for generating power. This system generates power by rotating turbines like thermal and nuclear power plants, and therefore, is suitable for large-scale power generation.
This presentation provides an overview of wind power generation. It discusses that wind energy comes from the sun and is influenced by surface roughness up to 100 meters. There are two main types of wind turbines - horizontal axis and vertical axis. The design of the wind turbine, including the number of blades and size of the generator, impacts efficiency. India has over 20,000 MW of installed wind power capacity as of 2013 and is the fifth largest producer, with Tamil Nadu having the most installations. The future of wind energy depends on government policies and subsidies to encourage its growth.
Wind energy is generated through wind turbines that convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical power. There are two main types of wind turbines - horizontal axis and vertical axis. Key components include blades, a drive train, a tower, and equipment to generate electricity. Multiple turbines grouped together form wind farms. Larger turbines can power many homes. While wind energy has environmental benefits over fossil fuels, it also has disadvantages such as intermittent supply and higher initial costs than other generation methods.
Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. They consist of blades, a rotor, a nacelle housing a generator and gearbox, and a tower. As wind passes the blades, they spin the rotor which turns the shaft and gearbox to increase rotational speed and power the generator to produce electricity. Egypt has over 500MW of installed wind power capacity concentrated in farms along the Red Sea coast. The advantages of wind power are that it is renewable and produces no emissions, while the disadvantages include intermittent availability and potential negative impacts on landscapes and communities. Problems faced by wind power include noise, transmission issues due to intermittent wind, social impacts, and fire risks from overheated or failed components inside nacelles.
Wind energy development has a long history dating back to ancient cultures using windmills. Today, wind power accounts for 27% of renewable energy production globally and its use is growing. Wind is caused by differences in heating of the Earth's surface creating areas of higher and lower pressure. Modern wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy using components like blades, a generator, and a nacelle. When designing wind farms, factors such as turbine type, blade number, rotor size, and siting distances must be considered to optimize efficiency and safety. While upfront costs are high, wind power prices have decreased in recent years and wind energy is one of the lowest-priced renewable technologies available.

There are three basic ways to tap the ocean for its energy. We can use
The ocean's waves.
The ocean's high and low tides .
Temperature differences in the water.
1-Wave Energy
Kinetic energy (movement) exists in the moving waves of the ocean. That energy can be used to power a turbine. The wave rises into a chamber. The rising water forces the air out of the chamber. The moving air spins a turbine which can turn a generator.
When the wave goes down, air flows through the turbine and back into the chamber through doors that are normally closed.
2-Tidal Energy
Two types of tidal plant facilities.
Tidal barrages
Tidal stream generator

Wind energy has great potential in India given its abundant wind resources and growing energy needs. India has set ambitious targets to add at least 2000 MW of wind energy annually and reach 20% renewable energy production by 2020. This will require continued technology advancements to develop larger, more efficient wind turbines suitable for low wind speed sites, as well as improvements to grid infrastructure and integration capabilities. Wind energy offers benefits as a clean, domestic source that can help meet energy demand in a sustainable manner if these challenges are adequately addressed.

The document then provides current installed capacities and scenarios for wind and solar energy in India.
Nuclear power plants generate electricity through nuclear fission. In a pressurized water reactor (PWR), heat from nuclear fission is used to heat water and produce steam to turn turbines and generate electricity. The steam does not come into contact with radioactive materials. Nuclear power plants produce far more energy from uranium fuel than fossil fuel plants and produce no greenhouse gases, but nuclear waste requires careful storage and disposal.
The document discusses geothermal and ocean energy. It explains that geothermal energy comes from heat within the earth, which can be harnessed to create electricity. There are several methods used including dry steam, flash steam, and binary cycle plants. Ocean energy technologies harness thermal differences or mechanical energy from ocean waves and tides. Ocean thermal energy conversion uses temperature differences between deep and surface ocean waters, while tidal barrages capture energy from tidal flows. Both resources provide renewable energy with less emissions than fossil fuels.
1) Renewable energy makes up about 21% of India's total installed electricity generation capacity as of 2011, with wind and small hydro being the largest sources.
2) The Electricity Act of 2003 and India's National Action Plan on Climate Change set targets to increase the share of renewable energy to around 15% of total generation by 2020. State governments set annual Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) targets for distribution companies to meet this goal.
3) Renewable energy certificates (RECs) were established as an instrument to promote renewable energy by separating the renewable attributes from the underlying electricity. RECs allow renewable energy generators to sell certificates in addition to the electricity itself to meet RPO targets.

Electricity is generated through various processes that convert other forms of energy into electrical energy. Historically, ancient Greeks discovered static electricity and Ben Franklin experimented with electricity using a kite. Modern generation uses processes like Faraday's law of induction. Common methods include burning fossil fuels in power plants to heat water and power steam turbines, using nuclear fission in nuclear plants, and harnessing the kinetic energy of moving water in hydroelectric dams. Renewable sources also generate electricity through technologies that convert wind, solar, tidal, and geothermal energy. Electricity is transmitted through power lines using alternating current of a standard frequency.
Solar energy can be harnessed using a range of technologies to capture and convert sunlight into useful forms of energy. There are two main types of solar energy technologies - passive solar, which uses sunlight without active solar components, and active solar, which uses electro-mechanical devices to convert sunlight into electricity or to power machinery. Solar energy can be used for heating, cooling, power generation, and other applications by using technologies like solar thermal collectors and photovoltaic panels. The amount of solar energy reaching the Earth's surface depends on geographic factors like latitude and weather conditions.

with this ppt you will learn about what is thermal power plant and construction and working of thermal power plant and also the advantages and disadvantages.
Electric power systems involve generation of power at high voltages, its transmission over long distances via transmission lines, and distribution to consumers via lower voltage distribution lines. Historically, direct current power systems were limited in transmission range but the development of alternating current systems enabled economical long distance transmission using transformers. Modern power grids involve large interconnected networks of generation, transmission, and distribution infrastructure to reliably supply electricity.
1. The document discusses different types of power plants including steam, nuclear, hydroelectric, diesel, gas turbine, and magnetohydrodynamic power plants.
2. It provides an overview of the basic components and working principles of each type of power plant, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.
3. Specifically, it describes the four main circuits in a steam power plant, the nuclear fission process in a nuclear plant, key components like the dam and turbine in a hydroelectric plant, and the engine and generator in a diesel power plant.
This document discusses energy kites, an alternative renewable energy technology. Energy kites replace traditional wind turbines by using kites tethered to the ground that fly in circular trajectories to harness wind power. They have three main components: the kite, tether, and ground station. Energy kites operate at higher altitudes where winds are stronger and more consistent, allowing them to generate more energy with less infrastructure and land use than other renewable technologies like wind turbines and solar panels. While energy kites face limitations from weather and require airspace restrictions, they could significantly reduce pollution and global warming if implemented on a large scale.
A power station or power plant generates electric power by converting other forms of energy into electrical energy. The most common types are thermal power plants, which burn fossil fuels to power steam turbines, and nuclear power plants, which use nuclear reactions to power steam turbines. Power plants are also classified by their prime mover, such as steam turbines, gas turbines, or hydroelectric turbines. When an imbalance occurs between power generation and load, it can cause power outages or failures across an electrical grid. Utilities take measures to protect against outages and restore power through monitoring, analytics of power usage and generation, and preventative maintenance of infrastructure.

Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

2. Conventional energy sources includes oil, gas and
coal.
These conventional sources are usually fossil fuels.
Their use leads to increased greenhouse gas
emissions and other environmental damage. These
sources of energy are also called non renewable
sources.
These sources of energy are in limited quantity
except hydro-electric power. Conventional energy
directly mean the energy source which is fixed in
nature like oil, gas and coal.

4. Large amount of power can be generated by
using coal and nuclear etc.
Transportation of oil and coal to the plant is
easy.
Gas fired power plant are having great
efficiency.
Fossil fueled power plant can be built almost
anywhere.

5. Fossil fuels are depleted once they used.
They produce toxic and hazardous gases and
residues which are causing environmental
pollution.
Power generation efficiency is less.
As sources are remotely placed, there cost of
transmission is large.
Maintenance cost is high.

82. • Gas turbine electric power plant is a power plant in which a gas
turbine is used as the prime mover for the generation of
electrical energy.
• The principle of a gas turbine power plant is that a turbo-
compressor compresses working medium to a high pressure
and then it is burnt in the combustion chamber where the
combustion takes place at a constant pressure and
temperature of the working medium is raised. This high
pressure and high temperature working medium is then
expanded in a gas turbine coupled to the generator.

91. • Distance from Load Centre:
The site should be as near to the load centre as possible so that the trans-mission costs and
losses are minimized.
• 2. Availability of Land:
The land should be available at cheap rate in order to keep the capital cost of the plant low.
• 3. Availability of Fuel:
The fuel should be easily avail-able and at reasonable rate.
• 4. Availability of Transportation Facilities:
The transportation facilities should be available.
• Distance from Populated Area:
The site should be away from thickly populated area because of noisy operation.
• 6. Type of Land:
The land should be of high bearing capacity to withstand the load of the plant and also the
vibrations transmitted to the foundations from compressors and turbines.
Site selection criteria for Gas turbine power plants

102. • Conventional Plants:
Conventional plants use potential energy from dammed water.
• Pumped Storage Plant:
In pumped storage plant, a second reservoir is constructed near the
water outflow from the turbine. When the demand of electricity is low, the
water from lower reservoir is pumped into the upper (main) reservoir.
• Run-Of-River Plant:
• In this type of facility, no dam is constructed and, hence, reservoir is
absent. A portion of river is diverted through a penstock or canal to the
turbine.
Types of hydropower plant
