Uttarakhand Flood 2021
NTPC project
rishi ganga, dhauli ganga hydro power project
Date – 7th February 2021
Affected Rivers – Rishi Ganga and Dhauli Ganga
At least 65 people are believed to have been washed away in the debris, with 141 people still reported missing (official estimate).
Rishiganga Hydro power project of 13.2 MW was damaged and the under-construction 520 MW Tapovan Vishnugad project downstream was washed away.
The main cause of the incident is yet to be determined but it is clear that there was an avalanche causing the flash flood in Rishi and Dhauli Ganga rivers.
The Tapovan power project
Of the four power plants that were damaged in the floods, the privately owned Rishi Ganga project was the smallest, with a generation capacity of 13.3 MW.
The debris from this plant damaged other units downstream and endangered the lives of the people working there. This includes the state-run Tapovan (520 MW) and Pipal Koti (4×111 MW) projects and the private Vishnuprayag (400 MW) project.
Building of large dams on rivers alters ecosystems by fragmenting rivers. Unsustainable developmental activities will hinder India’s commitments to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
Besides, the construction and widening of roads leads to the clearing of forests that harbour various microbial, faunal, and floral communities impacting the ecosystems more adversely.

Sequential Damming Induced Winter Season Flash Flood in Uttarakhand Province ...Bilingual Publishing Group
204 persons were killed while two hydropower projects located in close proximity at Rishiganga (13.2 MW), and Tapoban (520 MW) were damaged in Dhauliganga flood of February 7, 2021 in the Indian Himalaya. This incidence occurred during the winter season when the discharge of the glacier fed rivers is minimal, and no rain was experienced in the region around the time of the flood. Despite discharge of the main river, Rishiganga, not involved in the flood due to damming upstream of its confluence with Raunthi Gadhera, based on field evidences massive volume of around 6 million cu m water involved in this flood is attributed to sequential intermittent damming at three different places; (i) Raunthi Gadhera was dammed first in its upper reaches, (ii) Rishiganga river was then dammed to the north of Murunna, and (iii) finally Dhauliganga river was dammed around Rini village to the upstream of its confluence with Rishiganga river. Lacking warning system only enhanced the flood-induced devastation. Legally binding disaster risk assessment regime, together with robust warning generation, and dissemination infrastructure are therefore recommended for all major infrastructure projects.

Mitigating the Menace of Urban Flooding in Uttar Pradesh through Spatial Plan...rdvw5xh4ht
Global warming has changed the rainfall pattern leading to abnormal flooding specially in urban areas. The presentation, through a case of Lucknow, the capital city of most populous state of India discusses ways and means for mitigating the menace of urban flooding inIndia.
Flood has been considered as one of the very most recurring and frequent disaster in the world. Due to recurrent prevalence, the economic loss and life damage caused by the flood has put more burdens on economy than any other natural disaster. India has continuously suffered by many flood events which claimed collosal loss of life and economy. It has been found that the incidences of the flood are increasing very sporadically. Causes can be climate change, cloud bursting, tsunami or poor river management, silting etc. but devastation is increasing both in terms of lives and economies.
Flood is most profound and costliest natural disaster in the world which devastates both life and economy at a large extent. It is defined as, “High-water stages in which water over flows its natural or artificial banks onto normally dry land, such as a river inundating its floodplain.” This local and short term event comes with little or no alarming
Hydel dam projects which are considered 'Green' are found to be enviro-socially much worse than coal based thermal power plants. This PPT contains web-search about adverse impacts of Hydel dam projects and it's a tip of the iceberg. World needs to know Hydel vs Coal-based Power plants.
cataclysm of humanity, Natural Disaster, economic loss, Human loss, From 14th to 17th June 2013, Uttrakhand and its adjoining areas was experiencing heavy rainfall, which was about 375 percent more than the benchmark rainfall during a normal monsoon.

The thermocouple can be defined as a kind of temperature sensor that is used to measure the temperature at one specific point in the form of the EMF or an electric current. This sensor comprises two dissimilar metal wires that are connected together at one junction. A Thermocouple is a sensor used to measure temperature. Thermocouples consist of two wire legs made from different metals. The wires' legs are welded together at one end, creating a junction. The voltage can then be interpreted using thermocouple reference tables to calculate the temperature.The temperature can be measured at this junction, and the change in temperature of the metal wire stimulates the voltages. These are used as the temperature sensors in thermostats in offices, homes, offices & businesses.
These are used in industries for monitoring temperatures of metals in iron, aluminum, and metal.
These are used in the food industry for cryogenic and Low-temperature applications. Thermocouples are used as a heat pump for performing thermoelectric cooling.
These are used to test temperature in the chemical plants, petroleum plants. These are used in gas machines for detecting the pilot flame.
Unlike the plot of many sci-fi movies, the human race has yet to be dominated by artificial intelligence.
And since we are not living in the world of I, Robot or The Matrix, we still need smart individuals to work alongside the technology we use.
And at the same time, we have not achieved efficiency without using technology.
This ppt is for study purposes and the aim is to benefit Dairy and Food Technology students. Various pictures are used to make topics clear.
Freezing is one of the integral operations in the making of ice cream as it affects the quality, palatability, and yield of the finished product.
Ice cream is almost complete food. The mix usually contains more than 60 per cent water. As ice is frozen, the ice crystals are suspended in the water, and very small air cells are incorporated into the mixture.
Ice cream contains a considerable quantity of air, up to half of its volume which gives the product its characteristic lightness. Without air, ice cream would be similar to a frozen ice cube.
Hope this ppt shall help students.
This ppt includes various types of technological innovations along with their difference. This ppt id made more study purpose for subject Technology Management.

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.

Date 7 February 2021
Cause Undetermined
Deaths 62
Property
damage
Most houses are damaged. Few houses that remain undamaged on the site were
covered in slush upto 20 feet deep.
4.
5. Causes
1. The flooding was caused due to caused by a portion of the Nanda Devi glacier
breaking off early on 7 February, releasing the water trapped behind the ice,
and causing a glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF).
2. GLOF = is a type of outburst flood caused by the failure of a dam containing a
glacial lake.
3. As per another report, landslide had triggered the disaster.
4. The flood was caused by a portion of glacier being torn away and causing a
landslide. (The Times, London)
5. Climate change is the major factor in the rapid freezing and thawing of ice
that causes glacier fractures.
6. Damage
● The Rishiganga power project on the Rishiganga river, a tributary to the
Dhauliganga River, was damaged along with loss of man power.
● The Dhauliganga Dam at the confluence of the Rishiganga and Dhauliganga
rivers was washed away by the floodwaters.
● Severely affected= Chamoli, Joshimath, Rini, Nanda Devi National Park,
Tapovan Vishnugad Hydropower Plant and Sridhar.
● Flash floods also impacted a hydro project owned by the NTPC with around
176 laborers working on a project which had two tunnels where those
workers were trapped.
● Bridge in tapovan area which connected 13 villages damaged.
7. Relief & Efforts
➔ Emergency crews managed to rescue 16 workers who had been trapped
inside a tunnel.
➔ Another 35 to 40 workers are thought to be trapped in a second tunnel.
➔ Two C-130J Super Hercules with 3 teams of National Disaster Response Force
(NDRF) have been deployed in the rescue mission.
➔ Many villages were earlier evacuated as authorities emptied two dams
farther down the river to stop the floodwaters from reaching towns of
Haridwar and Rishikesh.
8. My Views
➢ Government of India has been warned for many years that the Himalayas had
been warming at a dangerously high rate and the region's ecosystem had
become too physically exposed to the dangers of development projects.
➢ People's Science Institute in 2014 had advised against building dams in the
paraglacial zone, i.e. river valleys in which the floor is higher than 7,000
feet, but the Government of India disregarded their objections.
➢ Amount of damage this storm wreaked and the casualties along the way has
the clear signature of the impact of human intervention in the region. So, we
have to check and recheck our activities that harm our nature.
➢ Apart from political highlights citizens must also focus on nature.
9. May God give eternal peace to all who had lost their lives in catastrophe.
