Municipal solid waste consists of everyday items that are discarded by the public and usually contains food wastes, paper, cardboard, plastics, and other materials. In India, MSW is composed of 51% compostable materials, 17.5% recyclables, and 31.5% inert materials. Solid waste management systems include generation, storage, collection, transportation, processing and disposal of waste. Plasma gasification is a waste treatment process that uses a plasma torch to break down organic waste at very high temperatures into syngas while inorganic waste is converted into a glass-like byproduct. Plasma gasification produces more energy and less emissions than incineration and eliminates the need for landfills.

When coal exposes to air it undergoes Oxidation which gives out various gases such as carbon monoxide, methane etc. along with the evaluation of heat. the reaction takes place even at normal atmospheric temperature but when the temperature and the heat evolved reached ignition temperature of coal, coal catches fire.
Toyota Mirai Is one of the best innovations of the 21st century. It's leading us to a new Hydrogen economy which seems to be a crucial turning point for a sustainable development. This presentation was something I made for the Toyota Lanka company, but somehow never subjected to examined. Hence after 3 years, I decided it make available to all who are interested in innovation and eco-sustainable advance technologies.

coal seam gas is methane adsorbed on coal.It can be extracted by hydraulic fracturing or fraccing.It is compressed to LNG and later used to produce electricity.
Plasma Thermal heating technologies were widely developed in the early 1960's in conjunction with space exploration and military applications programs in the US (NASA) and the former Soviet Union. In particular, plasma torches were developed to provide an effective method to test the effectiveness and durability of heat shields required for space vehicle re-entry.

Micro RNA genes and their likely influence in rice (Oryza sativa L.) dynamic ...Open Access Research Paper
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs molecules having approximately 18-25 nucleotides, they are present in both plants and animals genomes. MiRNAs have diverse spatial expression patterns and regulate various developmental metabolisms, stress responses and other physiological processes. The dynamic gene expression playing major roles in phenotypic differences in organisms are believed to be controlled by miRNAs. Mutations in regions of regulatory factors, such as miRNA genes or transcription factors (TF) necessitated by dynamic environmental factors or pathogen infections, have tremendous effects on structure and expression of genes. The resultant novel gene products presents potential explanations for constant evolving desirable traits that have long been bred using conventional means, biotechnology or genetic engineering. Rice grain quality, yield, disease tolerance, climate-resilience and palatability properties are not exceptional to miRN Asmutations effects. There are new insights courtesy of high-throughput sequencing and improved proteomic techniques that organisms’ complexity and adaptations are highly contributed by miRNAs containing regulatory networks. This article aims to expound on how rice miRNAs could be driving evolution of traits and highlight the latest miRNA research progress. Moreover, the review accentuates miRNAs grey areas to be addressed and gives recommendations for further studies.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.
2. Municipal solid waste (MSW), commonly known
as trash or garbage (US), refuse or rubbish (UK) is
a waste type consisting of everyday items that are
discarded by the public.
MSW usually contains food wastes, paper, cardboard,
plastics, textiles, glass, metals, wood, street sweepings,
landscape and tree trimmings, general wastes from
parks etc

6. Incineration is the burning of carbon based (organic)
material in an oxygen-rich environment,
6
7. Incineration results in high levels of tars, furans, NOx,
dioxins and sulfur dioxide, which are expensive to
clean from the exhaust.
Emit varying levels of heavy metals
Inorganic materials are not affected by the burning
process and become part of the ash
7
8. Gasification is a process that converts organic
materials into CO,H2 and CO2.
8
9. Temperature range 400-850 degree Celsius
Produced low quality gas
Charcoal and other Inerts must be land filled
Drying process is important to obtain an acceptable
moisture content
9
10. Plasma gasification is a high temperature pyrolysis
process
Temperature of 3900-7000 degree Celsius using
plasma torch
Organic waste into syngas
Inorganic waste into rock like glassy by-product called
vitrified slag
Eliminates need for landfill
Because of the high temperatures and lack of O2 there
are no tars, dioxins or furans and NOx and Sox are
much lower
10
12. PLASMA TORCH
Consists of a closely spaced pair of tubular water-cooled
electrodes
The gas/arc interaction produces the superheated process
gas and leads to higher thermal efficiencies obtained for the
plasma torch 12
16. Plasma gasification is the closest technology available
to pure gasification
The Plasma gasifier can process any type of waste, does
not require sorting
Almost all of the carbon is converted to fuel gas
16
17. Reduce landfill and decrease greenhouse emission
PGM plant can can be modified to produce
NH3,H2SO4
Even though capital cost may be high , in the long run
PGM is profitable owing to the sale of electricity and
slag

18. With the demand for energy always on the rise,
closures of landfills and the high cost of opening new
ones, the time has come for using plasma technology
to come to the forefront…
