Research has shown LED lights can yield plants 75% faster while using 75% less energy than traditional lighting options.
Optimized energy efficient lighting system for green buildingseSAT Journals
Abstract
Increasing population places increasing demands on energy supply, which leads to heavy power deficiency. We can supply only a
limited amount of energy to the consumers because we have only limited conventional sources of energy and non-conventional
energy sources are mostly still under research and have not been deployed on a large scale. Not only there is limited amount of
energy to be supplied to the consumers but heavy demand of energy supply also leads to environment degradation. This creates a
need to use the limited energy efficiently. This has given rise to new trend towards reducing the energy consumption: Green
Buildings. About 40% of the energy consumption in the world is consumed by buildings [1]. Energy consumed by lighting systems
accounts for about 15% of total energy consumption of buildings [1]. Thus we need to use energy efficient lighting devices for
illuminating buildings. Thus in this study we to tend to develop optimized energy efficient system, which will use LED lights to
illuminate buildings. The illumination intensity of the LED lights will be decided by the FPGA, which is interfaced to the LED
driver. Based on combined values of light intensity of the room and occupancy of the room using different sensors, the light output
of the LED will be controlled.

LED Lighting for Petro-chemical IndustriesIRJET Journal
This document discusses LED lighting technology for petrochemical industries. It begins with an abstract that outlines the historical use of high-intensity discharge lights in industrial facilities and introduces LED lighting as a newer technology with potential advantages. The body of the document then examines LED lighting standards, products, design considerations, and case studies evaluating LED retrofits in existing petrochemical facilities. It finds benefits of LEDs include reduced energy consumption and costs, lower maintenance needs, and decreased environmental impacts, though cautions that the industrial LED market remains immature.
This document discusses natural lighting systems as a way to promote energy efficiency and reduce costs. It explores using sunlight and artificial lights distributed and controlled to provide adequate lighting. With an average solar irradiation of 357.52W/m2 in Ibadan, Nigeria, natural lighting techniques like tubular daylight guidance systems, heliostats and hybrid solar lighting could be implemented to supplement electrical lighting and reduce energy bills. While initial costs may be high, the benefits of improved health, productivity and reduced long-term costs make natural lighting systems a viable option worth exploring further in Nigeria.

This document summarizes a research paper on developing a hybrid solar-wind power system for generating electricity in remote areas. The system combines photovoltaic solar panels and a small wind turbine to harness renewable energy from the sun and wind. Electricity from both sources is regulated by a controller and stored in batteries. The controller can also invert the DC current to AC for powering loads. The hybrid setup was tested in both manual and automatic modes, with the latter controlled by a microcontroller. The system aims to provide a reliable electricity source for powering infrastructure in areas not connected to the electric grid.

The solar-powered batteries can fully charge during the day, requiring no external power source. This portable design allows the benefits of laser stimulation to increase crop yields over large areas in an affordable and sustainable manner.

This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5.

Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
