TRANSCRIPT
Project 1:purification of waste water with simultaneous production of power:
• The base is photocatalysis,where I used carbon nitride from urea and mixed with silver nitrate at .83%wt ratio.
• Added potassium phosphate monobasic and waste water as a sacrificial electron agent with base(7.8) and also separately triethanol amine as a separate agent.
• The purified water is somewhat acidic with pH 6.7 and TDS of 300.
• The power production is through hydrogen fuel cell where the rate is 100umol/g/4hrs with stability of about 6 cycles.
• The power production unit for which I am presently working on as my final year project.
• First time H+ ions didn’t come but i am still working on it to get adequate current with sufficient stable result from sunlight.
PROJECT 2:OIL SPILL REMOVAL THROUGH DATE PALM FIBRES.
• But i have sampled many samples like ricehusk,sludge,wool woven fabric material,etc.But date palm fibres topped the list with sorption capacity of 4.53g, at 23 degree celsius at contact time of 5 minutes.
• Oil uptake is rapid • where OSC(oil sorption capacity) was 4.960 g oil/ g
sorbent for 2 min draining time and retains oil for long time.It’s a low-cost, higher biodegradability as it is a natural cellulosic fiber and cost effective
•
• The material is hydrophobic and oleophilic• OSC vs time is studied and after 60 min,the
decresing OSC starts to rise.• sorption capacity of EPFB fibre decreased
significantly from 1.33 g/g to 1.12 g/g at fibre weighed 3 g and 5 g, respectively.
• I also tried to build a digester but due to lack of proper guidance,I failed but my curiousity won’t die till the end of my life.
Eventhough i didn’t optimum results in my bachelors degree project,I strongly believe with proper guidance from you during my M.E-Environemental engg program,i will create an efficient waste to power generation either pilot scale or as a small scale project which will be useful for all kinds of people,especially the poor.
