<p>The pre-monsoon cyclone Viyaru in the Bay of Bengal during May 2013 traversed a long track from 5°N to 22°N over 7 days with basin-wide response, which was well captured by the time series observations
Development of a new class of single pan high efficiency, low emission stoves, named gasifier stoves, that promise constant power that can be controlled using any solid biomass fuel in the form of pellets is reported here. These stoves use battery-run fan-based air supply for gasification (primary air) and for combustion (secondary air).
Two recent discoveries have greatly impacted understanding relevant to the origination and emplacement of petroleum and natural gas deposits. One discovery, pertaining to hydrocarbon formation from methane broadens significantly potential regions where abiotic petroleum and natural
Mature stem cuttings of 10 candidate plus trees (CPTs) of Pongamia pinnata were subjected to auxin application to compare their adventitious rooting ability. Significant differences were observed for sprouting
Arunachal Pradesh is a part of the Eastern Himalayan biodiversity hotspot, one among the 25 identified hotspots world wide. Due to decrease in firewood source and increase in local market price, rural people are compelled to resort to indigenous energy-efficient technologies. In this respect, rural people of Arunachal Pradesh, especially of West Kameng and Tawang districts, have developed a new
Biogas, which is generated from organic digestion under anaerobic conditions by mixed population of microorganisms, is an alternative energy source, that is now being utilized both in rural and industrial areas. Biogas technology offers an attractive route to utilize certain categories of biomass for meeting partial energy needs. (Correspondence)
In the present world scenario bio-diesel has been accepted as a clean alternative fuel.
<p>Pongamia (Indian beech) is a non-edible oil-producing tree legume (Syn: Pongamia glabra Vent.), that has recently gained importance for its oil utility as biodiesel1. Various parts of Pongamia are used in medicinal and other applications<br /> </p>
<p>Charcoal is perhaps the best example of biochar. Considering the interest that has been generated by Jha et al. many readers would be interested in knowing how actually charcoal is made. During one of our recent field surveys to Kasera locality in Kangra District, Himachal Pradesh, (Correspondence)</p>
An integrated study using remote sensing and multi geophysical data was carried out over parts of Deccan Syneclise, for eliminating the inherent ambiguities associated with each of the individual methods, and to understand the hydrocarbon prospects. The subsurface sections constructed using geophysical data such.
<p>During the last few years, India has been witnessing an unusual development. The country is trying to make progress, which needs the availability of uninterrupted electrical power. This may be obtained from different types of sources such as hydel, thermal, nuclear, tidal or fossil fuel power stations.
