Urban India generates 188,500 tons per day (68.8 million tons per year) of municipal solid waste (MSW) at a per capita waste generation rate of 500 grams/person/day. Improper solid waste management deteriorates public health, degrades quality of life, and pollutes local air, water and land resources. It also causes global warming and climate change and impacts the entire planet. Improper waste management is also identified as a cause of 22 human diseases and results in numerous premature deaths every year. The composition of urban MSW in India is 51% organics, 17.5% recyclables (paper, plastic, metal, and glass) and 31 % of inerts. The moisture content of urban MSW is 47% and the average calorific value is 7.3 MJ/kg (1745 kcal/kg). The composition of MSW in the North, East, South and Western regions of the country varied between 50-57% of organics, 16-19% of recyclables, 28-31% of inerts and 45-51% of moisture. The calorific value of the waste varied between 6.8-9.8 MJ/kg (1,620-2,340 kcal/kg). Currently, there is no system or mechanism exists to dry the municipal solid waste. In this research work such system can be designed and developed which will dry the municipal solid waste and remove the odor from it. Dried municipal solid waste can be further used as fuel for boiler.

Bio Gas Generation from Biodegradable Kitchen WasteIJEAB
Generation of Solid wastes in general and biodegradable waste in particular is increasing at house hold level over the last two decades. Per capita generation of the waste has been increasing steadily due to population growth and changing socio-economic characteristics and cultural habits and varies from 250g to 600g. Any material which can be decomposable by the action of microorganisms in a short period of time is called biodegradable Mostly food waste; vegetable peels and fruit pulp are biodegradable. These materials readily mix with the soil by the action of bacteria. During decomposition, these materials release carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia and hydrogen sulphide into the environment thereby contributes to air pollution and odour pollution. The gases that are released during the decay of biodegradable wastes can be captured for the economic utility and as well as to save the environment. An attempt is being made in this technical research paper to demonstrate the possibilities energy recovery from biodegradable kitchen waste that is collected from residential societies which can be utilized for the benefits of the society. Kitchen and food waste collected from a high end residential community of 300 families in Mumbai city suburbs is analyzed for the quantification of bio gas. Bio gas is captured through a fabricated anaerobic digester. Experimentation and results are discussed. The results are encouraging.

Biomass resources including wood and wood wastes, agricultural residues, municipal solid waste, animal wastes, wastes from food processing and aquatic plants and algae. They are renewable resources whose utilization has received great attention due to environmental consideration and the increasing demand of energy worldwide. (Bakat et. al., 2009; Tsai et.al., 2007). Biomass can be converted to energy via tgermochemical conversion processes such as direct combustion, pyrolysis and gasification. (Pattiya Suttibak, 2012). Fast pyrolysis or rapid pyrolysis is mostly applied to biomass so as to change it to less energy- dense solid form into liquid form which called Bio-oil. It is thermal decomposition occurring in the absent of Oxygen.
In fast pyrolysis, biomass decomposes very quickly to generate mostly vapourised quickly to generate mostly vapourised and some charcoal and non- considerable gas. After cooling and condensation, a dark brown homogeneous mobile liquid is formed which has heating value about half that of conventional fuel oil. A high yield of liquid is obtained with most biomass feed low in ash. (Bridgewater, 2012).

Design of solar drier for rice at karjat, raigad, maharashtraSumit Dharmarao
This paper deals with current practices of drying
agricultural products in most of developing nations
like India. It also try to coin the concept of utilization
of Solar dryer at farm side. In a developing country like
India, having the second largest population and
agriculture as the source of income to nearly 60 % of
the total population, post-harvest and storage loss is a
major quandary, which needs to be addressed in due
diligence. Many food preservation techniques like cold
storage, drying, etc., have been evolved out over the
years to tackle the above losses. The major constraint
is that almost all the technologies are utilizing fossil
fuel resources, which are depleting very fast and wise
use of these precious resources are preferred for longterm
energy sustainability. Therefore, sustainable
methods for food preservation are the need of the
hour. Solar drying is one of the best choices in this
context. The effect of temperature to moisture
contents against time and rate of drying are studied &
discussed in this paper.
Experimental analysis of various pcs by spark testingSumit Dharmarao
Knowledge of material properties, production
methods and manufacturing processes are each
important subject in the material science discipline.
Material testing methods are standardized by several
organizations, such as ASTM, ISO, ASM and DIN etc.
Materials are tested and their mechanical properties
are tabulated in handbooks. This project will explain a
study conducted on how a certain number of carbon
steels might be identified through the observation of
the sparks projected when a specimen is held against a
grinding wheel. There are many factors that can
change the spark patterns that are projected, but the
main goal of this project is to attempt to standardize a
method of spark testing and how it is performed. The
study was conducted on six different grades of carbon
steels that are commonly used in manufacturing
processes. A reference manual was created from the
experimental data cataloguing the spark pictures. This
manual can be used by students and potentially by
machine shops to identify samples of the included
materials. This can lead to significant savings for
machine shops by using a relatively easy, user friendly
method, to identify unknown stock sitting around in
the shop
Design of concentric solar water distillator.Sumit Dharmarao
Distillation is one of many processes available for water purification, and sunlight has heat energy that can be used to power that process. Sunlight has advantage of zero fuel cost but it available in attuned format so requires larger collector areas i.e. absorber surfaces due to this it becomes costlier equipment. It is misnomer that for distillation we need to boil water actually simply elevating its temperature, short of boiling will adequately increase the evaporation rate. In fact, although vigorous boiling hastens the distillation process it also can force unwanted residue into the distillate, defeating purification. To boil water with sunlight requires more costly apparatus than is needed to distill it little more slowly without boiling. Different levels of purification can be achieved with this equipment which can be used for sterilized water for medical uses. Purification of heavy water in dissolved salts differs from purification of water that has been dirtied by other chemicals processes.
Water harvesting – a solution to drought & falling level of ground water ...Sumit Dharmarao
India is one of the growing economy in the world. Nearly 65% population of nation depends upon agriculture to fulfill their needs, eventually whole economy of nation depends on Agriculture. Agricultural production based on availability of water. Due to high industrialization and deforestation rain rate is decreasing in Indian subcontinent which results in frequent droughts. Due to drought there is sudden reduction in agricultural production and also increased pressure on ground water. Shortness of water is coped by ground water. Every ones thirst of water results in undeclared competition eventually water level below ground falls down. Water harvesting means saving & storing every drop of water is the only solution to frequent drought & maintaining ground water level.

severe in spinning section. Dust consists of small and microscopic particles of various substances
which are present as suspended particles in air. These particles are harmful to human health.
Because of this various diseases are occurred like shortness of breath, cough, and lungs cancer.
Various aspects of health hazards in textile industries have been discussed and measure hazards
is lungs cancer to reduce this health hazards is lungs cancer our dust collector is helpful.
Design of air preheater for solar dryer for drying cerealsSumit Dharmarao
This paper explains about various factors which are to be considering while designing solar
dryer for agriculture products. It includes the major parts like air pre heater, air duct, and
cabin for keeping agricultural products. Out of these parts of air pre heater is important as
solar energy is available in attuned form & we have to concentrate it with help of solar
collectors. In collectors absorber plates are made up of good thermal conductor like copper,
aluminium so the plate is get heated due to solar radiation & hence air is heated by the
convection process by forcing the air to flow over absorber plate & this heated air is directed
towards the cabin through ducts. After that heated air is made to flow over agricultural
products specially cereals lying in the cabin which is a closed space having number of trays
placed in vertical shell with suitable distance & heated air takes away moisture present in it.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Abstract
Urban India generates 188,500 tons per day (68.8 million tons per year) of municipal solid
waste (MSW) at a per capita waste generation rate of 500 grams/person/day. Improper solid
waste management deteriorates public health, degrades quality of life, and pollutes local air,
water and land resources. It also causes global warming and climate change and impacts the
entire planet. Improper waste management is also identified as a cause of 22 human diseases
and results in numerous premature deaths every year. The composition of urban MSW in
India is 51% organics, 17.5% recyclables (paper, plastic, metal, and glass) and 31 % of inerts.
The moisture content of urban MSW is 47% and the average calorific value is 7.3 MJ/kg
(1745 kcal/kg). The composition of MSW in the North, East, South and Western regions of
the country varied between 50-57% of organics, 16-19% of recyclables, 28-31% of inerts and
45-51% of moisture. The calorific value of the waste varied between 6.8-9.8 MJ/kg (1,620-
2,340 kcal/kg). Currently, there is no system or mechanism exists to dry the municipal solid
waste. In this research work such system can be designed and developed which will dry the
municipal solid waste and remove the odor from it. Dried municipal solid waste can be further
used as fuel for boiler.
Introduction
Majority of the MSW collected in India is disposed off on open land or in unsanitary
landfills. This is in addition to the irregular and incomplete waste collection and
transportation in many cities, which leaves MSW on the streets. Many municipalities in India
have not yet identified landfill sites in accordance with MSW Rules 2000. In several
municipalities, existing landfill sites have been exhausted and the respective local bodies do
not have resources to acquire new land. Such a lack of landfill sites decreases MSW
collection efficiency. Unsanitary land filling pollutes ground and surface waters, emits
greenhouse gases and other organic aerosols and pollutes the air. Pests and other vectors
feeding on improperly disposed solid wastes is a nuisance and above that a breeding ground
for disease causing organisms. Since economic reforms in 1992 – 1993, India has undergone
rapid urbanization, which changed material consumption patterns, and increased the per capita
waste generation rate. Since 2011, India underwent unprecedented economic growth and the
urban per capita waste generation increased from 440 grams/day to 500 grams/day at a
decadal per capita waste generation growth rate of 13.6%. The change in lifestyles has caused
considerable change in the composition of MSW generated in India too. Following a trend
expected during the economic growth of a country, the percentage of plastics, paper and metal
discarded into the waste stream increased significantly and the amount of inerts in the
collected waste stream decreased likewise due to changes in collection systems. From 1973 to
1995, the composition of inerts in MSW decreased by 9%, whereas organic matter increased
by 1% and recyclables increased by 8% (Figure 1). However, from 1995 to 2005, inerts
decreased by 11%, compostable increased by 10% and recyclables by only 1%. The increase
in compostable and recyclables observed (Figure 1) is due to a) increase in recyclable wastes
2. generated due to lifestyle changes, and b) decrease in the overall percentage of inerts due to
improvement in collection.

Drying is basically phenomena of removal of liquid by evaporation from a solid.
Mechanical methods for separating a liquid from a solid are not generally considered drying.
These principles are applied, in general, to mechanical conventional drying and here
concerned mainly with solar drying. However in general, must be noted that conventional
drying principles and phenomena are independent of the type of energy used. Ekechukwu and
Norton (1999) and Mujumdar, 2007 gives a comprehensive review of fundamental principles
and theories governing the drying process. A major part of energy consumption during drying
is for the evaporation of liquid water in to its vapour (2258 kJ/kg at 101.3 kPa). The water
may be contained in the solid in various forms like free moisture or bound form which
directly affects the drying rate. Moisture content is expressed either on dry or wet basis, e.g.
moisture content in wet ( ) basis is the weight of moisture per unit of wet material.
= /( + ), kg per kg of mixture
and on dry basis ( ), is expressed as the ratio of water content to the weight of dry material:
= /
Figure 2: Relationship between wet-weight and dry-weight basis (Perry 2007)
Drying basically comprises of two fundamental and simultaneous processes: (i) heat is
transferred to evaporate liquid, and (ii) mass is transferred as a liquid or vapour within the
solid and as a vapour from the surface. The factors governing the rates of these processes
determine the drying rate. The different dryers may utilize heat transfer by convection,
conduction, radiation, or a combination of these. However in almost all solar dryers and other
conventional dryers heat must flow to the outer surface first and then into the interior of the
3. solid, with exception for dielectric and microwave drying. During the last decades, several
developing countries have started to change their energy policies toward further reduction of
petroleum import and to alter their energy use toward the utilization of renewable energies.
With very few exceptions, the developing countries are situated in climatic zones of the world
where the insolation is considerably higher than the world average of 3.82 kWh/m2 day. In
Figure 3daily average horizontal insolation data and sunshine hours of some developing
countries are given. An alternative to traditional drying techniques and a contribution toward
the solution of the open air drying problems is the use of solar dryers. Accordingly, the
availability of solar energy and the operational marketing and economy reasons offer a good
opportunity for using solar drying all over the world.

Drying (or dewatering) is a simple process of excess water (moisture) removal from a
natural or industrial product in order to reach the standard specification moisture content. It is
an energy intensive operation. The widest among drying methods is convective drying
(whereby heating takes place by convection between the hot air and the products surface), i.e.
drying by flowing heated air circulating either over the upper side, bottom side or both, or
across its mass. Hot air heats up the product and conveys released moisture to atmosphere.
Thus drying psychrometry is of importance because it refers to the properties of air–vapour
mixture that controls the function of drying. In direct solar drying called “sun drying” the
product is heated directly by the sun’s rays and moisture is removed by natural circulation of
air due to density differences.
Two basic moisture transfer mechanisms are involved in drying:
1. Migration of moisture from the mass inside to the surface.
2. Transfer of the moisture from the surface to the surrounding air, in the form of water
vapour.
Drying by solar radiation can be divided into two main categories:
(a) Direct, or open-air sun drying, the direct exposure to the sun.
(b) Indirect solar drying or convective solar drying.
Hybrid solar dryers combine solar radiation energy with an auxiliary conventional
source of energy. They can be operated either only by solar energy, only by conventional
energy sources or by both. In most of the cases hybrid solar drying systems are medium to
large capacity installations and operate by a solar ratio in the range of 50–60%.
4. The hybrid solar dryers combine the features of a solar energy with a conventional or
some auxiliary source of energy and can be operated either in combination or in single mode
with either source of energy. These dryers generally are medium to large installations
operating in the range of 50-60%, and compensate the temperature fluctuations induced by the
climatic uncertainties. Bena and Fuller (2002) described a direct-type natural convection solar
dryer combined with a simple biomass burner in regions without electricity. A hybrid solar
dryer is a modification of the solar dryer with auxiliary source of heating. Amer et al. (2011)
has recently designed and evaluated a hybrid solar dryer for drying of banana, consisting of a
heat exchanger and heat storage facility.
Proposed Solution
As we know, in developing countries like India, we are continuously facing the energy crisis.
Power generation units in India are unable to cope up with demand of nation. So mere use of
electricity to dry out the solid waste will not be a fair solution for above stated problem.
Therefore seeking for the alternate energy source is the need of current era and fortunately
India is gifted with Solar, tidal and wind energy in ample amount. We are coming into a zone
of 5.8 to 6.4 kwh/m2
/day which is very huge as compared to other nations in Europe &
America. So use of solar energy for the drying of solid waste is one of the best solution as the
solar energy is available at free of cost its clean source of energy, solar equipments are nearly
maintenance free. Though solar energy are having these much advantages but it has few
limitations like the availability of solar energy is completely depends on climatic conditions.
It is completely useless during night so better solution is to make combination of solar and
electric energy. So we can get the combination of advantages of both solar and electrical
equipments. So the solution must have combination of Solar and Auxiliary source as
electricity. We can say HYBRID MSW (Municipal Solid Waste) DRYER.
Proposed Construction of Hybrid MSW Dryer
A box type construction lets say Garbage Box to which the solar absorber plate assembly is
attached as shown as in figure 4. And conventional energy source i.e. electrical supplied
heating coil is placed at the bottom of garbage box. There is an arrangement of hooper at the
top of the garbage box for feeding of solid waste. There is also a provision of handle whose
extended shaft is inserted into the garbage box and baffle vanes are welded to it which help to
agitate the garbage present in the box.
5. Figure 4: Hybrid MSW Dryer
Working of Proposed Hybrid Dryer
Absorber plate present In the solar heater assembly is get heated due to solar radiation falling
on it. An air from environment will enter into the solar heater assembly where the absorber
plate is placed. As the air present over there is get heated due to convection . this heated air
will move forward as its density will drop and it enters into garbage box where the moist
garbage is placed. This type of circulation of heated air is called thermo siphon action. While
heated air flowing through the garbage will remove the moisture from it. Provision of
electrical heating coil will come into picture when drying is required to carry during nights &
cloudy days.
Conclusions
Till date no efforts have been taken to dry the municipal solid waste and no one is focussed on
the various health issues arose due to is which can be solved by sole drying of municipal
waste. Drying will remove the unpleasant odour and also help to improve burn ability of the
solid waste which can be directly feed as fuel to boilers. In metro cities like Mumbai, Nasik,
Pune & mega cities like Solapur, Aurangabad such a boilers are used to generate steams
which used to generate electricity.
