FOREWORD
Karnataka State Council for Science and Technology (KSCST) was founded in the year 1975 with a view to
utilize the scientific and technical expertise of a large number of Scientists, Technologists and Engineers in the
State to alleviate prevailing poverty, improve the living standards of people and to reduce differentiation through
S & T intervention. Housing, Energy, Environment, Water and Waste Management are some of the sectors that
were identified by KSCST for improved and efficient management through S and T intervention.
Some of the success stories arising from the activities of the Council include: design of novel biogas
plants, solar collectors, solar pond, gasifiers, design of high efficiency cooking stove (ASTRA Ole), setting up of
rural energy centres and innovative use of sisal plant. Recent major initiatives of KSCST for societal benefits
include Rain Water Harvesting, Karnataka State Spatial Data Infrastructure and Waste Management.
Apart from playing a catalytic role in the implementation of sustainable technologies to society-centric
problems/ issues, KSCST has also been promoting research, development and innovation in universities.
Innovation and technology are needed to transform our nation from reliance on the exploitation of natural
resources to technological innovation as basis for sustainable and all inclusive development. Recognising this
need, KSCST initiated Student Projects Programme, popularly known as SPP as early as 1977. The main
purpose of this programme is to bring out hidden talent and innovative spirit burning in the minds of engineers
graduating from colleges across the State. Under this programme, KSCST has been providing both technical
and financial support to projects undertaken by the final year engineering students of VTU and of other
engineering colleges. All these projects were selected and funded by KSCST after peer review by the faculty of
Indian Institute of Science. After the completion of projects, they were again evaluated by the experts. In this
series the Council has supported projects in various fields right from agricultural sciences to embedded systems
to nanotechnology. Thus KSCST has been playing crucial role in building confidence and enhancing capabilities
of engineering graduates passing out from colleges in the State.
This is the 32nd SPP Seminar in the series conducted uninterruptedly. We are very pleased that National

ABOUT KSCST
Karnataka State Council for Science and Technology (KSCST) was established in 1975 to play a
catalytic role in promoting the application of Science and Technology in developmental processes
of the state in order to benefit a large segment of people. KSCST is the first State Council to be
set up in the country to fulfill the long-felt need of bringing together administrators, field level
officers in various government departments, scientists and technologists in research laboratories
and research institutions. The council has chosen many areas like Energy, Agriculture, Water,
Housing, Health and Education for its activities. The Council has completed several projects in
these areas such as Mid-day Meals for School Children, Lowcost Housing, Solar Energy
Applications, Zoning Atlas, Mapping for use in district administration, Water resources
development, Hand pumps for drinking water wells in villages, etc.
The objectives of the State Council are:
 To identify areas for application of Science and Technology to development needs,
objectives and goals for Karnataka, and in particular, to the prevailing conditions of
backwardness, rural unemployment and poverty;
 To advise government on the formulation of policies and measures including technical,
administrative and legal devices, which will promote such applications to identified
needs, objectives and goals; in particular to health, education and manpower utilisation
with special emphasis on the development of human skills in the rural areas and in the
slums; and which will promote the scientific management of the natural resources of
the State;
 To promote effective coordination and to develop and foster communication and other
links between centres of scientific and technological research, Government agencies,
farms and industries so that promising Research and Development work is initiated,
promoted and effectively deployed in agriculture, in government and elsewhere;
 To initiate, support and coordinate applied research programmes in universities and
other institutions in areas identified to be specially suitable for the application of
Science and Technology;
 To prepare Science and Technology plans relevant to the development needs of the
State;
 To consider, and advise the government on such other matters as relevant to the
application of Science and Technology to the problems of Karnataka State.
The Council has constantly involved several institutions and governmental agencies to identify
research areas of interest in major concerns such as Housing, Energy, Water supply, Ecology and
Environment, Industries and Rural employment. The Council has evolved a methodology of
conducting workshops with participation by leading scientists and administrators and technocrats
to identify problems faced, in the state, in each area and to formulate research projects based on
these identified problems. These problems were given to different research labs for study and to
evolve solutions and these have also been implemented in the fields wherever found suitable.
The Council has undertaken several path breaking programs in the area of Energy. To
name a few, it has setup a rotor windmill for pumping water at Ungra, a community biogas
14
service unit supplying water and electricity in Pura, Energy Parks in different parts of the state,
Solar water heating systems in several places. It has also set up Microhydel station at Elaneer
village in Dakshina Kannada district and Vanachalu village near Mercara, which uses a modern
technology of cross flow turbines.
KSCST has assisted the state in district level planning in 29 districts through setting up of
Natural Resources Data Management System (NRDMS) centers in these districts. These centers
use modern scientific tools like Geographic Information System (GIS) and spatial data support
system for use in identifying locations with problems like drinking water supply, location of
hospitals, schools, etc. This helps in empowerment of local bodies of governance in optimal use of
resources. Rainwater Harvesting is one of the important programme of the Council. KSCST has
done lots of experimentation in treatment of municipal solid and liquid wastes and their recycling.
KSCST has participated in the identification of research programmes in the area of biodiversity.
KSCST is involved in identifying the problems and strategies for S&T inputs in various sectors.
One of the major activities of KSCST has been to improve the quality of education in our
colleges. In view of this, Student Project Programme (SPP) was started during 1978–79 to
sponsor engineering student projects and this innovative project has been playing a very
important role for last three decades. Many projects deal with technologies for use in applications
very relevant to the State. During the 32nd series (2008-2009) of this programme which
commenced in November 2008, a total of 272 projects from 70 colleges were sponsored by the
Council. Since its start in 1978, the Council, under this programme, has supported nearly 6500
projects.
The success of these activities are mainly due to excellent co-operation which the Council
received from different departments of the Government and the scientific community in different
research institutions of Karnataka, particularly Indian Institute of Science. The support and cooperation of many senior functionaries of the State Government like the Chief Minister, Minister
for Science and Technology, Finance Minister, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayat Raj
as well as the Chief Secretary, Additional Chief Secretary, Development Commissioner, Finance
Secretary, Science and Technology Secretariat are extremely important in the success of these
activities. The Council has completed 33 years and is looking forward for even more participation
from colleges for improving the performance further.

Results and conclusion:
This project detects and recognizes odors of Industrial
toxins and pollutants in Industrial processes. The
potential of the project is to detect odors in
applications other than those mentioned above like
Space station and Space shuttle air quality,
Toxicology, Military environments, Food processing
and in Medicine.
Objective
Smell is used to detect danger, such as a gas leak
or food burning on the stove. Industries that
develop products to help us either smell good or
prevent aromatic offense testify the aesthetic
importance of odors, as well as its economic value.
The primary goal of our present project is to resolve
problems related to detection of different gases,
smoke and fire using thin film sensors which
operate at a remarkably low temperature [25100°C]. We expect to realize better sensitivity,
stability and selectivity of different gas sensors as
well as low consumption of power, response and
recovery times in comparison with gas sensors
produced today by industry.

Introduction:
Allergy and immunological disorder are identified as
one of the most important health concerns of modern
time. According to an estimate about 22% of the
population is suffering from some form of allergic
disease.
A number of biogenic or a-biogenic particles are
identified as a potential source of allergens.
Mold/fungal spores, pollen grains, dust mites, other
plant and animal borne materials are identified as
some common allergens. It is essential to have proper
knowledge of allergens, their prevalence and mode of
action for therapeutic or clinical management of allergy
and immunological disorders.
The block diagram gives the idea of circuit
connection:
Respiratory allergy may be more predominant than
other forms of allergy because of smaller spore size of
certain species of fungi capable of penetrating deep in
to the bronchi. Keeping these facts in mind the present
investigation was carried out in three occupational
sites at Davangere.
Objectives:
1. Identification of predominant fungal spores present
in different occupational sites like Poultry, food
godown, hospital environment and libraries
2. Study of qualitative and quantitative analysis of the
fungal spores.
28
3. Study of these fungal spores in relation to their
allergenisity on people work in these different
occupational sites.

Introduction:
Increasing the share of renewable energy from
biomass in the total energy usage in the
agricultural, domestic, industrial and transportation
sector is of immense importance from
environmental point of view, both for developed
and developing countries like India. Biomass is
available from different sources such as agri- and
forestry wastes, agri-industrial wastes and wood
available from social forestry sector in India.
Biomass can be obtained from the cultivation of
short rotation trees- such as eucalyptus, pongamia
pinnata, kikar (Acasia nilotica ), poplar (populus)
etc., energy crops like sugar cane, agricultural
crop residues like wheat straw, rice straw, etc.,
wastes from commercial/domestic tree plantations
like coconut, palm, ground nut, etc. The total
biomass availability world-over is ~ 6 Gtoe y-1 (giga
tones oil equivalent) with an energy content of ~
225 x 103 QJ y-1. Social forestry scheme in vogue
in India is a very lucrative scheme for the marginal
farmers as the wood trees and wood obtained
from them help in augmenting their annual income
and improving their living standards.
Objectives:

Characterize the kikar wood, study the effect of the
final pyrolysis temperature, particle size and
nitrogen gas flow rates yields of pyrolysis products
such as bio-oil, gas, and char.

Characterize the pyrolysis oil (bio-oil), char and
gas for their possible use as fuels or chemical feed
stocks / intermediates.
Scope for future work:



Characterization of fungi and bacteria as
allergens responsible for the induction of
seasonal allergic rhinitis and asthma and
identifying the specific IgE/IgG binding protein
fractions of different allergens will help in
immunotherapeutic procedures.
Preparation of bacteria and fungi spore
calendar and making available to the clinicians
for its use in allergy diagnosis. The calendars
indicate the occurrence of most predominant
types of airborne bacteria and fungal spores in
the atmosphere.
An attempt can be made to design a model for
the forecast of bacteria and fungi and threshold
value of allergenic types which will be useful to
allergy patients to take precautionary
measures.
Methodology:
1. The pyrolysis of Acasia nilotica sub sp. indica
(kikar) wood was investigated to produce bio-oil in
a fixed bed pyrolysis reactor.
2. The effect of process parameters such as
pyrolysis temperature (450-700 °C), particle size
(0.25-1.7 mm) and sweep gas (nitrogen) velocity
(0.05-0.4 cm3 min-1) on the pyrolysis product yields
and
their
chemical
compositions
were
investigated.
3. The chemical characterization of the products (oil,
char and gas) was carried out. The bio-oil was
characterized using elemental (CHNO) analysis.

and
scanning
electron
microscopy (SEM). The H/C and O/C ratios of
the chars decreased with the rise in the
temperature. The gases were identified as CO2,
CO, Hydrogen and C1-C4 hydrocarbons.
project was a exploratory work aimed at determining
the applicability of ceramic membranes of a specific
pore size for some bio molecular separation
applications and comparison of the same with
commercially available polymeric membranes. It
involved the use of TFF Microfiltration Equipment
procured by the department from Millipore India Pvt.
ltd. Preliminary investigations were carried out and
results established thus laying the ground work for
further in-depth analysis.
Objective
This project explores the use of certain ceramic and
polymeric membranes as filtration medium for a few
biomolecular separation applications. Specifically,
polymeric and ceramic membrane performance was
compared in the filtration of juices like sugarcane and
pineapple as well as in the filtration of proteins like
BSA and bacterial medium.

This study indicates the slow pyrolysis at
different pyrolysis temperatures for a particle
size range of 0.425-0.60 mm of kikar wood in a
fixed-bed experimental reactor.

It was found that the yield of liquid tar is higher
at 600 °C in static atmosphere.

Particle size of 0.425-0.60 mm gave a
maximum yield of bio-oil as compared to the
other particle size fractions.

Continuous flow of nitrogen through the bed did
not increase the yield of bio-oil much.
Standard filtration equipment supplied by Millipore was
employed for the studies. It consisted of a conical
flask, glass base with a side-arm, clamp, sample
holder and a Vacuum pump. The experiment was
carried out in several stages.

The bio-oil was found to contain a significant
amount of water (20-25%), and complex
organic chemicals.
The first stage included running samples of E. Coli
and BSA to find whether these samples were retained
by the membranes or passed through.

The heating value of the bio-oil was found to be
low ( 12.19 MJ m-3). The char obtained had a
very high heating value ( 34 MJ/kg). The gas
heating value was lower ( 6.4 MJ m-3).
After having established the size characteristics of the
ceramic membranes, fruit juices of pineapple and
sugarcane were passed through the membranes. The
filtrate and retentate samples were then analysed
further. Pineapple juice was specially chosen because
its major component is the enzyme bromelain which is
fast gaining importance because of its applications in
the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry. The
enzyme was characterized and pH, temperature and
substrate studies were carried out.

Introduction
Ultrafiltration and microfiltration are membrane
separation processes used for a broad variety of
applications ranging from processing of biological
macromolecules to wastewater treatment. They
have significant advantages over competing
separation processes. Food and biotechnological
applications account for nearly 40% of the current
total usage of ultrafiltration membranes. Protein
bioseparation is an important component of this
application segment. It is used for protein
concentration,
desalting,
clarification
and
fractionation (i.e. protein-protein separation). This
30
Methodology
Results and Conclusions
The results of filtration experiment with BSA samples
showed that the concentration of BSA in the filtrate
and retentate was equal. Thus, the sample passed
through both ceramic and polymeric membranes thus
indicating that the pore size of ceramic membrane was
more than the size of BSA molecules (0.014 Microns),
indicating the pore size of ceramic membrane
synthesized lies between 0.014 micron and 0.45
microns.
Experiments on the pineapple juice samples showed
that the protein (bromelain) was retained on both
ceramic and polymeric membranes. Thus this ceramic
membrane has a potential use in the purification step
in the recovery and isolation of bromelain. The
advantage of using ceramics is easier sterilisation and
savings in membrane replacement costs. The ceramic
membrane system offers operations at higher
pressure drops, thus reducing the time used for
processing of the product, increasing the yield and
providing a power-saving, cost efficient method of
purification and recovery of products.
Scope for future work
Current studies were exploratory in nature and
concerned with the use of membrane separation in
the clarification of couple of juices, a broth and a
protein sample. The same can further extended to
the purification, concentration of other important
compounds and solutions on membranes of
different pore openings.

Introduction
Biological control involves the use of beneficial
micro-organism to attack and control plant
pathogens and the disease they cause. Biological
control offers an environmentally approach to the
management of plant disease and can be
incorporate into cultural and physical control for an
effective integrated pest management system.
Trichoderma are ubiquitous fungi naturally present
in the soil and are among the most common
saphrophytic microorganisms that can be isolated.
The Trichoderma are especially well known as early
colonizers of root systems and directly promote
plant growth by increasing the beneficial microbial
activity in the rhizosphere, which is the intense
zone of stimulated microbial activity around the
roots.
One of the most important functions of Trichoderma
involves the mold’s tendency to develop symbiotic
relationship with plants. These fungi like to grow on
the roots of living plants, and they promote
abundant root growth so that they have plenty of
roots to grow on. Trichoderma also eliminate other
fungi so that they do not have to struggle with
competitors, providing a benefit to the plants they
colonize. Some farmers and gardeners add
Trichoderma to their soil before planting for the
benefit of their plants.
Objectives
 Isolation of Trichoderma species
 Identification of a suitable trait of Trichoderma
 Characterization and quantitative analysis of
the selected trait
 Extraction and analysis of toxins
Study of Antagonistic effects of Trichoderma viride
towards different pathogenic fungal species
 Conducting greenhouse trials and field trails, in
which Trichoderma viride formulations can be
used for nursery treatment and soil treatment
Methodology
In this work, isolated Trichoderma viride from air and
rhizosphere region of soil. The biochemical
characterization of the strain was performed, followed
by the extraction and identification of toxin.
Identification of toxin was done by comparing with the
standard Rf values of antifungal antibiotics. The toxin
was found to be gliotoxin. To find out the antagonistic
effect of Trichoderma viride, the different pathogenic
fungi like Fusarium and Altenaria species were
transferred from the agar slant into the petri dishes
containing the Czapek-Dox agar media. Filter paper
discs dipped into the toxin of Trichoderma viride were
placed around the test organisms. It is observed that a
zone of inhibition was found around the discs.
Conclusion
Trichoderma Viride was isolated by preparing the
sterile Czapek-Dox and Martin Rose Bengal Agar
media supplemented with Streptomycin. The spores
were observed under the microscope to confirm the
organism by staining with lactophenol cotton blue
solution and was compared to know the characteristics
through Barnett fungal identification manual.
Trichoderma Viride produces a sulphur containing
antibiotic known an Gliotoxin. This particular toxin was
extracted and identified by the technique called as thin
layer chromatography under UV light.
The most important use of this species is that it can be
used as a biocontrol agent as it is a nature-friendly,
ecological approach to overcome the problems caused
by standard chemical methods of plant protection. It
helps to promote sustainable management practices,
cost effective for improving crop productivity through
innovative starter solution technology which reduces
the chemical pesticidal applications.

Introduction:
The world energy demand is increasing steadily as the
human population grows and economic development
progresses. The current predominant energy source is
the fossil fuel, which is not going to last long. This
emphasizes the need to complement fossil-fuel-based
energy sources with renewable energy sources, such
31
as biomass. One of the alternative fuel that has
very good potential as a substitute for fossil fuel is
bioethanol, which is comparatively and significantly
environmental friendly than fossil fuels because of
low emission of carbon dioxide, zero emission of
nitrogen oxides and sulfur. Therefore, presently,
each and every country is looking for strategies and
methods to produce bioethanol as alternative fuel in
an economic manner.
The economics of the ethanol production is
determined by the cost of sugar derived from
cellulosic waste. In India, lignocellulosic biomass
(crop residues, forestry and fruit and vegetable
waste and weeds) is available in plenty, which
needs to be exploited for bioethanol production.
Results and Conclusion:

Theoretical alcohol yield in the dry and fresh
arecanut fibre, dry and fresh coconut fibre, dry and
wet coffee pulp, cashew apple, cashew apple pulp,
fermented cashew apple pulp and weed waste
was found to be 543.43, 1772.03, 2046.23,
905.39, 452.69, 4593.15, 140.61, 2411.5, 1574.79,
3388.29, 650.75% respectively. From this study it
can be concluded that the agricultural waste and
natural weed waste can be a potential source of
bioethanol.

The most significant aspect of the present
investigation is the process adopted does not
produce any harmful by-products, whereas all the
by-products generated in the process have
industrial applications.

For example, the calcium sulphate generated in
the neutralization step, has application in cement
industry and the lignin mass left over after the acid
digestion will be of use as bio-adsorption filters.
Objectives:

To produce bioethanol from biological waste.

To tap sources for region specified bioethanol
production.

To give a comparative account of amount of
bioethanol produced from different sources.
Methodology:
10 g of coconut fiber, areca nut fiber, cashew apple
pulp, coffee pulp and weed is treated with 300 ml of
2% (w/v) sulphuric acid at 120oC for 1.5 hrs at 15psi
in the autoclave for digestion.The slurry was
filtered; neutralized with calcium hydroxide until the
pH of the hydrolysate reaches to 6.0. Allow the
calcium sulfate to precipitate out by keeping the
sample overnight at lab temperature.Total sugar in
the neutralized hydrolysate was estimated by
Phenol sulphuric acid method and the reducing
sugar in the hydrolysate was estimated by DNSA
method.Cellulose, hemilcellulose and lignin content
in the raw material digested with dilute acid were
estimated by the method of McMillan. Fermentation
of the neutralized liquor was carried out using
Chung and Lee, Chen et al., method with minor
modifications. Measure the total quantity of
hydrolysate and divide it into equal proportion and
take not more than 300 ml in 500 ml conical flask.
Inoculate the hydrolysate with yeast at a
concentration of 106cells/ml or commercial bakers
yeast at 2.5 g/L. Keep the flask in a shaker
incubator maintained at 30oC for 48 hrs.The
fermented liquor was subjected to distillation at 700c
to 800c in rotary flash evaporator. Enough amount
of the distillate was collected. Estimate the alcohol
content in the fermented sample by specific gravity
method or pycnometry.For each sample of raw
materials used to extract cellulosic sugars after
dilute acid pretreatment, the residue left was
weighed to find the lignocellulosic mass.

Introduction:
Solid Wastes (SW) are unwanted materials disposed
off by man, which can neither flow into streams nor
escape immediately into the atmosphere. Micro
organisms that dwell in solid wastes are grouped
under Solid Waste Microflora (SWM). The most
common organisms that are generally found in solid
waste are bacteria and fungi. These micro organisms
use the components of the waste as the substrate for
their growth and hence they have the natural catabolic
ability to degrade and transform a variety of
compounds. In this present study, SWM were isolated,
identified and their ability was utilized for the
degradation of propoxur (Baygon), a carbamate
insecticide. Propoxur is a broad spectrum insecticide;
used in hospitals, factories and houses for control of
flies, ants, mosquitoes, cockroaches and millipedes. Its
mechanism of action is by reversible inhibition of
acetylcholinesterase enzyme.

Introduction
Natural Oral Health Care Products Are the Recipe for
Healthy Teeth and Gums. Plant soaps, essential oils,
vitamins, and herbs in natural oral health care
products are often more effective in the treatment of
gingivitis, in periodontal disease prevention, in dry
mouth treatment, and in the everyday care of healthy
teeth and gums. Natural oral health care products
address the root of the problem, rather than simply the
symptoms.
‘Renjeer’ (Mimusops elengi) plant called ‘Big Bakul’ in
Sanskrit and clove (Syzygium aromaticum) have
traditionally been used as an oral health care products
in the powdered form. Hydrolytic enzymes will be
incorporated in the mix because they not only clean
our teeth but also improve digestion. A crude methanol
extract of Syzygium aromaticum exhibited preferential
growth-inhibitory activity against Gram-negative
anaerobic periodontal oral pathogens, including
Porphyromonas gingivalis and Prevotella intermedia.
Mimusops elengi bark possesses anti-ulcer activity
which decreases gastric acid secretory activity along
with strengthening of mucosal defensive mechanisms.
Saponins which are natural cleansing agents were
also isolated from the seeds of Mimusops elengi, in
addition to two known triterpenoid saponins. If the
ingredients are safe, we can consume the product
without the risk of consuming dangerous substances
as no harmful chemicals are used. The main aim of
this project is to provide alternate safe oral health care
product to consumers by adding value to the oral
health care product.

Introduction
Plant tissue culture offers quick and efficient methods
to exploit medicinal plants meaningfully to meet the
demands of the pharmaceutical industries and reduce
in situ harvesting pressure from natural forest
resources. Tissue culture technology can be used to
get more medicinal components without destroying the
natural plants. Considering the high economical and
pharmacological importance of secondary metabolites,
industries are deeply interested in utilising plant tissue
culture technology for large scale production of these
substances.
The plant Dioscorea racemosa is known as Varahee
(Sanskrit), Poterto yam (English) Heggenasu
[Kannada]. The plant is used traditonally as
aphrodisiac, rejuvenator, in treating bone facture,
cardiac diseases, diarrhoea, desertry, jeaver, Jandies,
Piler, Polyvrea, Ulcers urinary caliculli, in expelling
worms (Keshawamurthi 1994). The plant is also known
for its diaretic, antinflanetory activity. It is one of the
major Indian medicinal plant. Used in 3 indegesous
systems of medicine (Pullaiah 2002). in treating
syphilis, The plant contains poisonous glucoside.
(Chopra, et al., 1956).
Methodology

Healthy vegetative tubers and nodal segments of
Dioscorea racemosa was collected from the invivo grown plant. The explants was washed under
running tap water for 30min, treated with 0.1%
(V/V) aqueous solution of Tween-20 (Hi-media,
Mumbai) for 10 min, followed by 5 to 6 washes
with distilled water. The explants was surface


disinfected with an aqueous solution of 0.1%
HgCl2 for 10min. The disinfectant was removed
by rinsing the material with sterilized cooled
distilled water for 3 to 4 times and will be
excised aseptically and were inoculated to MS
(Murashige and Skoog’s, 1962) (Hi-Media)
media.

MS media containing 30gm/ltr sucrose and
8gm/ltr agar were used in all the experiments.
Plant growth regulators and their combinations
were added to the medium as specified below.
The PH of the medium was adjusted to 5.6-5.8
by 0.1N NaOH or 0.1NHCl prior to autoclaving
at 121ºc at 15lbs pressure for 20 minutes. All
the cultures were maintained in the culture
room at 24±2ºc under 16 hour photoperiod with
15µM/m2/s illumination from cool white
fluorescent tubes with 60-65% relative humidity.
Multiple shoot induction is also observed from the
nodal explants inoculated on MS medium
supplemented with different concentration of
Kinetin. Frequency, number of multiple shoots and
shoot lengths were higher & medium containing
2mg/ltr Kinetin (25.7+1.30) within 12 to 15 days.
Lower and higher concentration of Kinetin resulted
in lesser number of shoot regeneration.

Among the two cytokinins tested for the induction
of multiple shoots in the present study betters
results were recorded from the nodal explants
inoculated on M.S. Medium supplemented with
2mg/ltr Kinetin. Maximum number of shoots were
recorded within 12-13 days with considerable
elongation of shoots processing 3-4 nodes and
leaves. However in case of BAP multiple shoots
induced failed to elongate even after 40 days of
incubation.
For shoot bud induction nodal segments were
placed on MS medium supplemented with
different concentrations of BAP/KN (0.5, 1.0,
1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0µM) alone and in combination
with NAA (0.5, 1.0, 1.5µM). The frequency of
explants producing shoot buds and number of
shoot buds shoot length etc. were recorded.

For root induction MS media was supplemented
with IBA, NAA separately at different
concentrations.

Each treatment consisted of 10 replicates. The
number and length of shoots per explant was
calculated at the end of 45 days of culture.

Introduction:

Nodal explants inoculated on M.S. medium
supplemented with various concentration of
BAP ranging from 0.5 to 10 mg/lt . the study
revealed that, the maximum number of multiple
shoots were induced in 4 mg/ltr BAP. Within 20

Polysaccharides of natural origin such as starch and
cellulose have enormous importance in our
technological word because they are readily available
and posses unique features unmatched by polymer of
artificial production. (Inmaculada Aranaz et al. 2009)
Natural, nontoxic, biopolymer such as Chitin, poly [ß(1-4) -2-acetamido-2-deoxy-glucopyranose] occurs in
insects, crustaceans and molluscs as an important
constituent of the exoskeleton and in certain fungi as
the principal fibrillar polymer in the cell wall. In nature it
is second in abundance to cellulose. The most
important derivative of chitin is chitosan: poly [ß- (1-4)2- amino-2-deoxy- D- glucopyranose] and is
chemically or enzymatically produced by deacetylation
of chitin. Commercial production of chitin and chitosan
takes place from waste shells of shrimps, prawns,
crabs, lobsters and crayfish.
Objectives:

To isolate chitin and Chitosan chemically from
Hermite crab shells.


To study the factors affecting its preparation


To characterize the resulting product

and to vary amount of chitosan for adsorption
studies and to develop adsorption isotherms.

Therefore, the weight of the product was
decreased at concentration 8% and 10% of
sodium hydroxide. On increasing the hydroxide
concentration more than 4%, the nitrogen percent
was not affected but the product obtained was
decreased due to partially deacetylation of

the nitrogen percent of the prepared samples
decreased with increasing reaction duration and

is a tendency for the reaction to level off after 4
hours at 100º C.

more than 4hours.
by
Methodology:


The shells are boiled with sodium hydroxide for
30 minutes. The boiled raw material is allowed
to cool and it is washed with water to remove all
traces of alkali and dried at 50º C in an oven for
2hours. The product thus obtained is called
Chitin.
Chitin is heated at 90-95º C for about four
hours with 40% caustic soda. Excess alkali is
drained off and the mixture is washed with
water several times till it is free from alkali.
Excess water is removed and the product
obtained is wet Chitosan.

The above product is dried for 2 hours at 50º C
in an oven. Care should be taken not to exceed
the drier temperature beyond 60º C. The shells
are treated with sodium hydroxide using
different concentrations at 80º C and 100º C for
2 hr.

Dyeing of chitin is achieved by varying the
amount of chitin to 50 ml of dye solution in a
flask and stirred until equilibrium is reached.

The dye adsorption studies were done at a pH
of 6 and the percentage of decolorisation was
also studied.

The solution was stirred for a period of 4 hrs
and optical density of untreated effluent and
treated effluent was measured by calorimeter. It
is calculated by kjeldahl method or reaction
efficiency.

The capability of the use of prepared chitin for
serving as anion exchange from aqueous
solutions was examined.
Result and Conclusions:

36
The nitrogen percent of the prepared samples
decrease significantly as sodium hydroxide
increased within the concentration range of 26%. This could be interpreted in terms of
greater ability of alkali to eliminate protein
which accompanied with chitin chains with
different bonds.
Further studies on rheology and determination of
molecular weight of chitosan and Degree of acetylation
which has a direct relation on the applications in drug
delivery studies need to be investigated. The effect of
acidic and basic dyes on adsorption of chitosan and its
comparison needs to be elaborated.

Introduction:
The fixed bed catalytic reactor is defined as the one in
which reactant fluid contacts with solid catalysts
arranged in fixed bed. It generally experience
temperature peaks known as ‘hot spots” with
exothermic reactions. The magnitude of the “hot spot”
depends on the heat effect of the reaction, Heat
transfer coefficient and Area available for the transfer
of heat etc. To understand the temperature profile
(Hotspot) within the reactor and its sensitivity to other
process variables like Inlet feed concentration and
coolant flow rate it is essential to develop a
Mathematical model. In this direction, to understand
the characteristics of highly exothermic reactions
carried out in fixed bed reactor, a pseudo one
dimensional homogenous model is developed for
oxidation of O-Xylene to Pthalic Anhydride in the
presence of V2O5 catalyst in fixed bed reactor.
simulation results are prepared. The steady state
temperature profiles are shown in figures (1 and 2).
Objectives

A One dimensional pseudo homogeneous
model is developed for an oxidation of OXylene to Pthalic Anhydride in a fixed bed
reactor.

Steady state simulation is carried out to predict
the movement of hotspot with in the reactor.

To understand the transient behavior of the
reactor the model equations are solved using
finite difference method.

Methodology:
Mathematical Modeling Of Fixed Bed Catalytic
Reactor: This reaction predominantly occurs in the
interface between the fluid and the solid. In the
fixed bed catalytic reactor, the system considered is
the oxidation of O-Xylene to Pthalic anhydride on
catalyst . This reaction is highly exothermic
[∆Hr= 307000 kJ/kmol]. This strongly exothermic
reaction is carried out in multi tubular reactors
cooled by molten salt that is circulated around the
tube. The reactor consists of 2500 tubes of 3m
height and 2.54cm internal diameter. The catalyst
pellets have a diameter of 3mm and bulk density of
1300kg/m3. The porosity of the bed is 0.476; the
operating pressure is taken as atmospheric. The
fluid taken in the reactor is gaseous mixture of OXylene and air. The concentration is kept below 1%
in order to stay under explosion limits.
In this work a simple one-dimensional pseudo
homogeneous equation is used to study the
unsteady state characteristics of fixed bed catalytic
reactor.
The present work deals with the dynamic modeling
and simulation of fixed bed catalytic reactor. The
reaction system chosen for the study is oxidation of
O-Xylene to Phthalic Anhydride on v2o5 catalyst
reported by G.Fromentt (1967). One dimensional
pseudo homogeneous model is used to describe
the steady state characteristics of fixed bed reactor.
The dynamic and steady state model equations are
solved using a IV order Runge-kutta method and
Figure 2. Dynamic response of reactor for step change
in the feed concentration at 20th sampling instant from
0.013 to 0.015 (Variation of Hot spot Temperature)
And the dynamic temperature profiles indicate that
beyond critical value of inlet feed concentration, the
“hot-spot” temperature values undergoes a large rise
in magnitude even for a very small increase in feed
concentration. This critical value of the feed
concentration depends upon the values of overall heat
transfer co-efficient. Larger the overall heat transfer
co-efficient; larger is the critical feed concentration.
Where the feed concentration crosses this critical limit,
the “hot-spot” temperature will rise to a higher value
and the condition is known as “runaway” condition.
Dynamic profile for step changes clearly indicates that
its response behave like under damped system. The
sharp rise in the “hot-spot” temperature can be
decreased by increasing the overall heat transfer coefficient.
SCOPE FOR FUTURE WORK

The system considered here is one-dimensional,
radial gradients can also be considered.


One can also model a heterogeneous system
taking into account the presence of catalyst
explicitly.

The mixture of ore fines, binder and water is blend
together manually. After proportionate mixing of the
components it’s taken for the process of hammering in
a hand mould made of mild steel using a jack hammer.
Each mixture of a particular combination would have
enough samples for three pellets to be made out of it.
This is done as a precautionary measure so as to
recover any loss of pellets in later stages of the
project. All the three pellets are subjected to strength
analysis and the average value of the cold crushing
strength of the sample is taken.

Iron ore sample along with 3% bentonite and 15%
cement proved to be the best binder. Its exhibited
a strength of 619.98 kgf / pellet.
Haematite and magnetite are the most prominent
source of iron ores available in India. About 60% of
hematite ores are available in eastern part of India
and 80% of magnetite ores are found in Karnataka
region. Most important magnetite ores occur in
Bababudangiri, Kudremukh, Bellary, etc.

Iron ore sample along with 3% bentonite jproved to
be the second best binder. IT exhibited a strength
of 367.10 kgf / pellet.

Even when calcia and fly ash was used as a
binder, a reasonable amount of strength in the
range of 200 – 300 kgf/pellet is obtained.
In Bellary-Hospet region the production of iron ore
fines from private mines in substantial and fines are
unwashed. The fines from Bellary Hospet region
generally have 63-64% Fe content of 100 mesh
fractions.

This work has given a thrust to use fly ash waste
and calcia waste as it is available in abundance in
India.

Any one of these combinations can be used based
on the dead weight of the heap of pellets before
they are fed to the blast furnace.
Introduction
Basically in the process of iron ore extraction, the
lumps are utilized and all the dust fines are not
utilized. The dust fines causes pollution and clog
the furnaces exhaust.
So Pelletisation has to be carried out for the
recovery of iron present in the fines. For obtaining
required strength of the pellets, various
combinations of the binders have to be added in
different proportions to the iron ore fines.
Future Scope

The pellets can be heat treated to get more
strength.

The strength can also be increased by varying the
sintering time.

Introduction:
Medical wastes from not only pose a risk to human
lives but also to the environment and animal life.
Though treatment and medical waste removal does
reduce the risks, indirect health risks may occur
through the release of toxic pollutants or through
treatment or disposal of waste. Given this scenario,
the three R's - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle seems to be a
solution for managing medical wastes. And for the
most part a winning formula too.The needles and
plastics are segregated and mixed with mortar
according to aspect ratio, thus acting as fiber
reinforced concrete compressibility test and water
absorption test is carried out and compared with
standard blocks which do not contain any fiber. The
report gives an overview of medical waste
management carried out in hospitals and how
reutilization of waste is done.
Objectives:

Reduction of medical waste.

Increase in strength of cement block.

Reduction in water absorption of cement block.

Reduction in environmental pollution.
Methodology:

Waste syringes are collected from hospitals
and disinfected by soaking in to 2% sodium
hypochlorite solution for 1 hour.

Metal part of syringe is separated from plastic
using cutting pliers.

Prepare

cement
mortars.Assume water/ cement= 0.35. Cement
shrinks in the volume when it is mixed with
water. Hence the quantity of dry mix of cement
and sand will be higher by 50 to 60 %.


Mono fiber cubes,Bi fiber cubes were moulded.
These molded cubes are kept under water for
28 days, then the tests are carried out as
follows.Water absorption test,Compressibility
test.
The water absorption of cube is determined by
measuring increase in weight of oven dry
sample when immersed in water for 1 hour.
For mono fiber cubes: As the aspect ratio
increases, water absorption decreases.For bi fiber
cubes: Water absorption show the better results
compared to mono fiber cubes.Optimum results for
plastics are obtained at 4 – 5 % concentration by
volume of concrete.
It was found that the cement block containing mono
fibers and bi fibers as well as plastics, increases the
strength of the block and decreases the water
absorption of the cement block compared to
standard cement blocks.
Coir beds, rubbers, latex etc which are also medical
waste generated in large quantity can be also used
with mortar to increase the strength. Various other
tests such as sorptivity i.e. capillary action on cement
block etc. can also be carried out further.

Introduction
There are many problems faced by the industries
today, especially the problem of waste disposal. One
such problem faced by sugar industry is discarding
blackstrap molasses, which is a waste produced after
separation of sugar from molasses. This project deals
mainly on useful utilization of molasses, which on
fermentation gives useful compound lactic acid. This
project relates to an improved and an economical
process for production of lactic acid from molasses. In
this project, we describe the efficient conversion of
molasses sugar by Lactobacillus delbrueckii and
Lactobacillus caessi for lactic acid production.
Objectives:

Extraction of lactic acid from molasses by
fermentation.

A comparative study of amount of lactic acid
obtained from molasses collected from three
different industries.
Methodology:
Take three sterilized conical flasks and add 50 ml of
molasses to each flask from three different
industries.Add 50 ml of water in these conical sterlised
flask. Add 20% of H2SO4 to the solution. To adjust the
pH of the medium upto 6.5, 4.0M of KOH is added. 4
gms of CaCO3 is added. Add 0.5 gms of dry yeast.A
pure culture of Lactobacillus delbrueckii is added to
the flask containing molasses from satish Sugars and
Gokak Sugar industries.A pure culture of lactobacillus
cassei is added to the flask containing molasses from
Rani Sugar industry. The above prepared samples are
kept in laminar air flow for a period of 72 hours for
fermentation to take place. After 72 hours, 10 ml of
sample is pipetted and titrated against standard 0.1N
NaOH using brome thymol blue as indicator. A change
from blue colour to yellow is the end point. Now the
samples are kept in continuous shaking incubator at
96 rpm and 370C. 10 ml of sample is pipetted at every
3 hours and titrated against standard 0.1N NaOH
using brome thymol blue as indicator. The readings
are noted down and used to calculate the
concentration of lactic acid.
39
In this project, the students have produced lactic
acid from molasses taken from three different
industries and the production of lactic acid was
different in all three molasses solution. This
difference was due to differing composition of
molasses. To optimize the yield of lactic acid
production we carried out the experiment at
different pH, temperature and rpm of incubator.
Many valuable compounds found in molasses find
use as binding agents in manufacturing of citric
acid, industrial alcohol, etc.
2. To find maximum removal of Ni(II) by waste such
as rice husk as adsorbent in upflow fixed bed
column.
3. To study the reactor performance applying bed
depth / service time analysis (BDST) model.
Methodology
Experimentation involved following steps:

Preparation of biomass: Fresh biomass of rice
husk was commercially purchased from Bidar
(Karnataka). The biomass was sieved and a
fraction of average particle size (<0.35 mm) was
used for column studies.

Preparation of stock solution

Estimation of Nickel

Preparation of calibration curve for Ni (II)

Mathematical model

Experimental setup (Fixed bed column): An
acrylic tube of 40cm length 1.0mm internal
diameter is used as column reactor and is
connected to Peristaltic pump which maintains the
flow of synthetic samples to the column. The
effluent is collected in a beaker from the outlets
fitted at a interval of 10cm on the column. Flow
diagram is shown.
Since lactic acid can be obtained from various other
sources such as whey, soyabean hulls, beet
molasses etc. future work may be based by
considering one of these raw material for extraction
of lactic acid.

Introduction:
Elimination of pollutants and color from distillery
effluent is becoming increasingly important from
environmental and aesthetic point of view. Alcohol
distilleries are one of the most polluting industries
generating an average of 8–15 of effluent (“spent
wash”) per liter of alcohol produced In India, which is
the second largest producer of ethanol in Asia with an
annual production of about 2300 million liters in 2006–
07, alcohol distilleries are rated as one of the 17 most
polluting industries. Spent wash is characterized by its
dark brown color and low pH (4.2-4.5), high ash
content and contains high percentage of dissolved
organic and inorganic matter of which 50 % may be
present as reducing sugars. It contains about 90-93 %
water and 7-10 % solids; sugar being 2 – 20 % and
protein 10 – 11 % in the dry spent wash. The metals
present in spent wash are Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Cr, Cd and
Co with electrical conductivity in the range of 25 - 28
(mS/cm), BOD (40,000 - 50,000 mg/l) and COD (1,
00,000-1, 25,000 mg/l).
The present study is about removal of colour and
reduction of COD from distillery spent wash by
electrocoagulation using Aluminium (anode) and
Stainless steel (Cathode) electrodes.


Removal of colour and COD from distillery spent
wash by Electro coagulation (EC) process.

17. MEASUREMENT OF EVAPO
TRANSPIRATION USING LYSIMETER
The efficiency of the EC process to remove
colour and COD is strongly influenced by the
current density, dilution rates, time and pH. as
the current density increases the color and
COD reduction is much significant. It has been
found from Electrocoagulation using aluminium
as anode and Stainless steel as cathode,
maximum % of colour 89.10 and COD 27.80 for
reduction is possible.
The optimized parameters for the process are
Electrode distance 1cm, initial pH 4, current
density 8 Amp/dm2 for 2 hrs and color and COD
reduction observed are 89.01% and 22.80%
respectively.
Using other electrode material for the process to
check maximum color and COD reduction. Such as
a combination of (Al-lead), (Al-lead-SS), (Iron-ssAl). The combined process of EC process followed
by biological treatment for studying different
Demand for water is increasing due to increase in
population, rapid industrialization and increasing
tendency towards growing more crops under irrigation.
During summer months the crops are invariably
subjected to drought condition and therefore it
becomes increasingly important to optimize the
irrigation needs of the crop. Since transpiration
exceeds the optimum the excess water is lost to the
atmosphere by way of water vapor through leaf
surface. It is of great importance to know the rate of
evapotranspiration so that the farmers can provide the
crop with proper amount of water to be added for the
growth of paddy crop at critical stages.
Objectives:

To fabricate simple tank(micro lysimeter)with inlet
and outlet arrangements such that water surplus,
water deficit and water balance can be obtained
during crop growth

To plant paddy crop in the Lysimeter and measure
evapotranspiration (daily water added and
percolated) till the cropping period.

To know the water requirement of the crop grown
in the field and also to provide required quantity of
water for irrigation.
Methodology:
PET is what would be evaporated from a surface if
water was never a limiting factor. PET can be
calculated using empirical formulae, from the simple
needing only temperature. To complicated ones
requiring several obseravations. Alternatively PE may
be calculated as the difference between two easily
measurable quantities. These quantities are the input
and output of water in a system which may be
anything from a large water catchment area to a small
container. If the soil and vegetation is confined within a
43
small tank and measurements are made of the
water input (rainfall R and additional water A) and
output (percolated water P) collected in the
receiver.

Introduction
Figure : Lysimeter model used for project
Result and Conclusions:
The specific gravity of the soil sample obtained
from the field was found. Both the bulk density and
dry density was found to be 16.25 kN/m3 and 12.04
kN/m3 respectively. By sieve analysis, the
coefficient of curvature (Cc) and uniformity
coefficient (Cu) was found to be 1.62 and 10
respectively. The infiltration observed was 1.58cm
per hour using double ring infiltrometer. From the
permeability and sieve analysis test conducted on
soil is found to be clayey sand. The rate of
evapotranspiration obtained using lysimeter is high
when compared to the evaporation obtained using
Blaney-Criddle method. Thus the crop coefficient
(Kc) could not be found out. The major limitations in
the use of lysimeter are the reproduction of physical
conditions such as temperature, water table, soil
texture, density etc. within the lysimeter comparable
to those outside in the field.It is due to these
limitations that there is a difference in the rate of
evapotranspiration between lysimeter method and
Blaney-Criddle method
The result can be improved if instead of micro
lysimeter (observing input and output outside the
field), actual measurement at the field itself will
improve the results. However this process is
tedious and cumbersome.

The use of high strength concrete (HSC) and high
performance concrete (HPC) in the recent years has
increased drastically. The fact is that, these concretes
can be produced reliably by controlling the watercement (w/c) ratios incorporating a suitable admixture.
The behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) members is
a very complex phenomenon mainly because of its
non-homogeneity,
presence
of
cracks
and
reinforcement, and the nonlinearity in its material
response. The reinforced concrete (RC) beams in
shear at failure behave distinctly different from that in
flexure. The absence of large deformations and
inadequate warning before failure makes the shear
failures more catastrophic than flexural failures.
The shear strength of concrete is directly related to its
tensile strength, which is considerably lower than its
strength in compression. In analysis and design of RC
members the major concern is the prediction of
diagonal cracking strength due to the combined action
of shear and the flexure. From literature review it has
been well understood that when HSC is used, with the
increase in strength of concrete the ductility
decreases, resulting in brittle failures without adequate
warning. Thus, web reinforcement in the form of
stirrups is provided for resisting the shear stresses to
ensure sufficient ductility before failure. However, the
present code provisions for design of RC beams in
shear are based on the study of normal strength
concrete (NSC) members and with depth of beams
approximately less than 400 mm. Such an approach
leads to very conservative designs, non-uniform safety
margins and inadequate ductility when high strength
concrete (HSC) is used. Hence, the design
expressions for estimating strength and the minimum
shear reinforcement by codes of practice require
thorough review and need to be re-established.
Objectives
1.
To study the behaviour of normal and high
strength reinforced concrete beams in shear.
2.
To verify the design provisions incorporated by
different international and national codes of
practice for the design of high strength RC
members, as these provisions are based on
beams made from NSC.
3.
To check the provisions for minimum
reinforcement required for RC beams in shear
as per code provisions for different concrete
strengths.
Methodology
Total of three reinforced concrete beams with web
reinforcement were tested with varying compressive
strength of concrete to study their behaviour and
also to compare the provisions for estimating the
design shear strength and minimum reinforcement
by various National Codes of practices. The failure
modes of the beams, web strains in concrete, load
deflection responses and the shear ductility of RC
beams are discussed.
RC Beams with web reinforcement: Three beams
of size; 2000 mm x 180 mm x 300 mm were tested
under three point loading with a constant
percentage of longitudinal reinforcement of 2.15%.
The shear span-to-depth ratio was kept at 3.5. The
measured shear strengths of the RC beams at
different stages of loading are compared with that
of other code provisions.
Figure 1: Crack Profile for NS Beam
Figure 2: Crack Profile for MS Beam
The ultimate strength with web reinforcement
subjected to flexural shear is obtained from Vn = Vcr
+ Vs
Where, Vcr = Shear resistance at the stage of
initiation of diagonal cracking in a
member subjected to flexure and
shear, regardless of whether or not
shear reinforcement is provided &
Vs = Ultimate shear resistance of the shear
reinforcement.
Results and Discussion:
Crack Profile and Failure Mechanisms: During
testing the crack profile of all the three RC beams
were noted at regular load interval and the same
are schematically represented in Figures 1 to
Figures 3. The numbers of cracks developed are
more in number. This clearly indicates that the
shear
reinforcement
converts
the
failure
mechanism of beam from brittle to ductile.
Initially, the flexure cracks developed at the midspan prior to the diagonal cracks being developed.
Subsequently, the flexure cracks developed in the
shear span at higher loads and then converted into
diagonal cracks at mid depth. Later, these cracks
propagated towards the load point and also towards
the support, prior to failure of the beam. However,
all the beams failed due to diagonal tension failure
with a little crushing of concrete near the load point
for NWS beam.

Conclusions
Based on the objectives set in the present study and
the experimental work carried out in the laboratory the
following conclusions can be drawn.
1. The minimum reinforcement was provided in
accordance with IS 456 for beams made of
normal, medium and high strength. The failure
mechanism in normal strength, medium and high
strength concrete beams shows that the minimum
reinforcement provided in high strength concrete
beams is inadequate because the failure was
sudden and catastrophic.
2. The minimum amount of web reinforcement
specified by IS 456 and BS 8110 codes of Practice
are independent of compressive strength of
concrete. However, the ACI, CSA and AASHTO
provisions for minimum shear reinforcement are a
function of compressive strength of concrete.
3. The experimental work carried out in the present
study show that the current provisions for
minimum reinforcement as per IS and BS codes of
practice are inadequate for HSC beams. Hence, a
modification in the IS code provisions is required.
45
4. A comparison of strengths is made between
experimental values and the ones predicted by
different codes i.e., IS: 456, BS: 8110, ACI:
318. The strength predicted by different codes
of practices under estimate the strengths in
comparison to experimental results.

Introduction
Concrete is one of the most widely used
construction material; it is usually associated with
Portland cement as the main component for making
concrete. The demand for concrete as a
construction material is on the increase. It is
estimated the production of cement will increase
from about 1.5 billion tons in 1995 to 2.2 billion tons
in 2010 (Malhotra, 1999)
On the other hand, the climate change due to
global warming, one of the greatest environmental
issues has become a major concern during the last
decade. The global warming is caused by the
emission of greenhouse gases, such as CO2, to the
atmosphere by human activities. Among the
greenhouse gases, CO2 contributes about 65% of
global warming (McCaffrey, 2002). The cement
industry is responsible for about 6% of all CO2
emissions, because the production of one tone of
Portland cement emits approximately one ton of
CO2 into the atmosphere (Davidovits, 1994c;
McCaffrey, 2002)
Several efforts are in progress to reduce the use of
Portland cement in concrete in order to address the
global warming issues. These include the utilization
of supplementary cementing materials such as fly
ash, silica fume, granulated blast furnace slag, ricehusk ash and metakaolin, and the development of
alternative binders to Portland cement.
This project deals with the manufacture of low
calcium fly ash based Geopolymer concrete.
Objectives:

The main object of the project is replacement of
cement by using fly ash.

To obtain the high strength concrete in less
duration of period.
46
The sodium silicate solution and sodium hydroxide
solution were mixed together at least one day prior to
use to prepare the alkaline liquid used for the
preparation of Geopolymer concrete.
The fresh concrete was cast and compacted by the
usual methods used in the case of Portland cement
concrete. Fresh fly ash-based Geopolymer concrete
was usually cohesive.
Heat-curing of low-calcium fly ash-based Geopolymer
concrete is generally recommended. Heat-curing
substantially assists the chemical reaction that occurs
in the Geopolymer paste. Both curing time and curing
temperature influence the compressive strength of
Geopolymer concrete. The test specimens were
100x100X100 mm cubes heat-cured at 50°C in an
oven. The curing time varied from 24 hours to 168
hours (7 days). Longer curing time improved the
polymerization process resulting in higher compressive
strength.
Results:
The effect of curing time (with different water contents
– 130 kg/m3 and 140 kg/m3) on compressive strengths
are graphically shown in figures 1 and 2.

Conclusions
Based on the present
conclusions were drawn
study
the
following

It is possible to produce Geopolymer concrete
of strength ranging from 10.54 N/mm2 to 24.11
N/mm2 using NaOH and Na2SiO3 solution and
low calcium fly ash.

water content ↔ with increase in fly ash
content.



For a given water content, as the fly ash
content increases the compressive strength of
Geopolymer concrete increases up to certain
amount of fly ash beyond which strength
decreases.
As the age of testing increases, the strength of
fly ash based Geopolymer concrete increases.
Geopolymer
concrete
is
costly
then
conventional concrete for small works but Fly
ash concrete is economical in case of mass
concreting.
The following suggestions can be considered for
future work

Geopolymer concrete can be designed flexure
and split test.

Geopolymer concrete can be designed for 4M,
12M and 16M
The term SCC refers to a new special type of concrete
mixture characterized by high resistance to
segregation that can flow through intricate geometrical
configuration in the presence of reinforcement under
its own mass without vibration and compaction.
SCC is one solution for utilization of flyash and
recycled aggregates, to conserve the energy, natural
aggregates, to overcome the problem of landfill,
utilization of flyash in environmental friendly
conditions. Above all the most important, SCC is a
wonder material which has a lot of advantages
compared to normal concrete.
Objectives:

To develop SCC starting with paste content based
on absolute volume using both normal crushed
angular aggregates and recycled aggregates.

To study the effect of different volume of paste on
the fresh properties of SCC mixes.

To study the effect of using different paste content
on the compressive strength of SCC mixes.

To compare the compressive strength of SCC with
normal aggregates with that of SCC with recycled
aggregates and normal concrete.
Methodology
The recycled aggregates are obtained from crushing
demolished concrete structures, discarded precast
elements and unused hardened concrete waste.
Recycled aggregates may have a rougher surface
texture and more permeable than the crushed natural
aggregates.
In this study cement (OPC 53 grade), fly ash,
commercially available poly carboxylic ether based
superplastizer, natural river sand and crushed angular
normal aggregates and recycled aggregates of
maximum size 12.5 mm were used.
47
Nine SCC mixtures were fabricated using cement
content of 300 kg/m3, 390 kg/m3 and 450 kg/m3
with a constant water content of 190 l/m3. The
paste content considered were 0.39, 0.41 and 0.43.
The powder content varied from 517 kg/m3 to 652
kg/m3. The water to powder ratio by volume range
from 0.79 to 0.95, by mass from 0.29 to 0.37.
Cubes of 100 mm and 150 mm and cylinders of
100/200 mm were cast and tested for compressive
strength at 7, 28 and 60 days. In addition, the split
tensile strength was also assessed. Comparable
normal concrete for all water to cement ratios were
also cast and tested at 28 days.
The findings of the study indicates that the range of
volume of paste for fabricating SCC is 0.39 to 0.43,
both for crushed angular aggregates and recycled
aggregates. The mixture proportioning method
based on absolute volume is simple and reduces
the number of trials for developing SCC mixes. The
higher paste content makes the mix cohesive and
flowability or slump flow (yield stress) increases as
the volume of paste increases. This trend is also
seen in case of compressive strength wherein the
compressive strength increase as volume of paste
increases. However, an optimal value (0.41) of
volume of paste is noticed for the materials used in
this study. There is also substantial increase in long
term compressive strength of SCC due to
pozzolanic activity of filler material (fly ash). The
results however indicate that the compressive
strength of SCC with recycled aggregates has a
lesser value when compare to normal crushed
angular aggregates. In this limited study, the
percentage is around 15. The new method of
mixing adopted in this study has resulted in good
flowability.
Further experiments can be carried out for different
grading of aggregates and different paste contents.
Also experiments can be carried out using recycled
aggregates from different sources to characterize
and to know its effect on fresh and hardened
properties of SCC. Experiments can also be
conducted using different types of fillers both
reactive and non-reactive with recycled aggregates
for fabricating SCC to know the effect of
pozzolanicity on compressive strength.

RPC is a high strength ductile material formulated from
a special combination of constituent materials. The
mechanical and elastic properties of RPC depend on
curing condition and material selection specially
crushed aggregate and steel fibers. This high strength
and durable concrete reduces steel and cross section
of the member to the great extent. As the behavior of
RPC is entirely different from normal concrete the
design methodology of the structures with RPC need
to be developed. In India development of RPC is in
preliminary stage i.e. in selection of material and
arriving at mix design. Only a little work has been done
on evaluating properties of it. To bring the RPC from
laboratory to practice more studies are required in
developing the stress-strain curve, developing of the
design methodologies for the design of structures.
Here an attempt is made in this regard.
Objectives:

Enhancement of homogeneity by elimination
coarse aggregate.
49

Improved ductility through the incorporation of
steel fibers.
To study the compaction factor, strength and
density of rice husk ash concrete, through an
experimental investigation.

To make cost of construction less.
To design the RPC mix and find workability.
Methodology:

The enhancement of compaction density by
optimizing the granular mixture.


Methodology:
In this work the critical parameters of RPC mix
design are investigated and the mix design is
explored through a program of concrete casting and
testing. The materials required for RPC such as
cement, quartz powder, silica sand, silica fume and
steel fibers are proportioned to get high strength up
to 200 Mpa and its mechanical properties are
assessed. The cube and cylindrical specimens are
prepared of suitable size to assess the compressive
and tensile strength of concrete specimens.
Applications or RPC -use less materials; are lighter
in weight; more elegant; easier, faster, and safer to
construct; lower in maintenance; and have a longer
life than conventional materials. This new
technology is consistent with the construction
trends and demands for reducing labor, materials,
construction time, and environmental impact, while
increasing safety, security, durability & service life.

Introduction
Rice husk is an agro-waste material which is
produced in about 100 million of tons. Rice husks
contain organic substances and 20% of inorganic
material. Rice husk ash (RHA) is obtained by the
combustion of rice husk. The most important
property of RHA that determines pozzolanic activity
is the amorphous phase content. RHA is a highly
reactive pozzolanic material suitable for use in limepozzolana mixes and for Portland cement
replacement. RHA contains a high amount of silicon
dioxide, and its reactivity related to lime depends on
a combination of two factors, namely the noncrystalline silica content and its specific surface.
Objectives:

50
To provide a good quality and eco-friendly
concrete by replacing cement with a waste
material but super pozzolanic rice husk ash
The workability, compressive strength and density of
RHA concrete of different ratio, different water cement
ratios have been investigated by testing blocks casted
of 230mm x110mmx 80mm.The samples were made
with only one type of Rice Husk Ash processed from
N.K.Enterprises
Admn.
Off.:
Mukhya
Marg,
Jharsuguda, Orissa, INDIA – 768201. Experimental
investigations includes study of various physical
properties such as density, workability and
compressive strength. Rice Husk Ash concrete blocks
of 23cm x 11cm x 8cm size with varying mix
proportions of RHA, cement ratio and different water
cement ratio were cast in the lab.
Compressive strength of Rice Husk Ash concrete was
found to be nearer to the conventional concrete at
lower percentage of replacements as 10%. It is found
that the early strength of Rice Husk Ash concrete is
found to be less and the strength increases with
ageing. From the cost analysis, it is found that with
increase in RHA content the cost of RHA concrete
decreases. The RHA occupies more volume than
cement for the same weight. So the total volume of the
RHA concrete increases for a particular weight as
compared to conventional concrete which results in
economy. When the percentage of RHA is increased,
the workability of the mix becomes very poor as
compared to the conventional concrete.

Comparison of setting times of conventional
concrete and RHA concrete.

Study of resistance against acid and chlorine
attack.

Study of combined properties of RHA and fly ash.

Introduction:
The use of recycled aggregates in concrete opens
a whole new range of possibilities in the reuse of
materials in the building industry. The trend of the
utilization of recycled aggregates is the solution to
the problem of an excess of waste material, not
forgetting the parallel trend of improvement of final
product quality.
In this project an attempt is made to find out the
effect of sustained elevated temperature on the
properties of RAC produced by different
supplementary cementitious materials. The effect of
replacement of cement by fly ash and blast furnace
slag in different percentages on the strength
characteristics of recycled aggregate concrete
when subjected to a temperature of 500˚C are
studied.
Objectives:


To find out the effect of replacement of natural
aggregates by recycled aggregates in different
percentages, on the strength and workability
characteristics of concrete.
To investigate the effect of replacement of
cement by fly ash and silica fume in recycled
aggregate concrete.
Methodology:
To find out the effect addition of supplementary
cementitious materials on the properties of recycled
aggregate concrete, series of experiments are
carried out. Supplementary cementitious materials
are primarily used for improved workability,
durability and strength. These materials allow the
concrete producer to design and modify the
concrete mixture to suit the desired application.
Concrete mixture with high Portland cement
contents is susceptible to cracking and increased
heat generation. These effects can be controlled to
a certain degree by using supplementary
cementitious material.
It has been observed that even at 100%
replacement of natural aggregates by recycled
aggregates the compressive strength of concrete
can be compared with the compressive strength of
designed mix. It is found that the compressive
strength of concrete produced with the replacement
of natural aggregates by recycled aggregates and
10% cement replaced by silica fume, shows higher
strength properties as compared to that produced
by 25%replacement of cement by fly ash.

Introduction:
Solid waste management has become major concern.
So it is necessity to reduce solid waste from food
processing industry which is the greatest challenge in
front of the world. Sea food industries are major
industries in coastal areas. Chitosan is a byproduct
material recovered from sea food industry. Chitosan is
a natural, nontoxic, antimicrobial biopolymer
containing hydroxyl (OH¯) and ammonia (NH²†)
groups in its molecular chain. Chitosan is used in the
clarification of water and waste-water and in treatment
of water.
Objective:

To investigate the suitability of chitosan in
removing turbidity and ability of chitosan in
reducing other parameters such as hardness,
chloride, sulphate and nitrate.
Methodology:
Samples of water are collected from different source
and characterized for physical and chemical
parameters.
The turbid materials were mixed with distill water.
River silt was mixed with different water samples. The
conventional jar test was used to establish optimal
condition of pH and concentration of chitosan. The
turbid water sample (500ml), adjusted to the desirable
pH levels, and appropriate concentrations of chitosan
were stirred for 2 mins at 100 rpm followed by 5 mins
at 30 rpm.The treated samples were allowed to settle
for 1hr, after which pernatant aliquots were withdrawn
via pipette turbidity was measured as nephelometric
turbidity units (NTU). Other Tests performed are
Hardness Test, Chloride Test, Sulphate Test and
Nitrate Test.
Chitosan works effectively in neutral and alkaline
condition. Chitosan, a sea food industry waste are
effective in removing turbidity and other parameters.
The removal efficiency of turbidity of chitosan is 100%
where as alum showed 50% efficiency at same
concentration and pH. Performance of chitosan
depends on internal water characteristics. We can
conclude that chitosan can be used as a coagulant in
51
water treatment. Chitosan is better than alum in
reducing turbidity and also effective in reducing
hardness, nitrate and chloride in water sample.
Thus the value added by product from waste can
be used for economical purpose instead of dumping
as a waste.

Introduction:
The concept of industrialization of the construction
technology has emerged as well accepted and
preferred option in the field of building construction.
The development of new construction materials and
technology can partly relieve pressures on the
existing building material supply and help to arrest
the spiraling rise in cost of these materials and also
may reduce in situ construction activities. In
addition to economic and ecological benefits, the
use of fly ash in cement matrix improves its
workability, reduces segregation, bleeding, heat
evolution and permeability.
Objective
To experimentally study “Air entrained Ferrocement
panels with high volume fly ash and compatibility of
connections”
Methodology
In this project 8 no. of panels of size 1500 x 600 x
12mm are cast to study the flexural strength, 10 no.
of 300mm diameter with 12mm thickness for the
study of thermal conductivity and 2 no. of panels of
size 1500 x 600 x 12mm for compatibility of
connection. For the cementitious matrix it is
decided to use fly ash, sand as the siliceous
ingredients and Build Plast AEA as the air
entraining agent.
Results and conclusion
The addition of fly ash resulted in decrease of
compressive strength of mortar. But the flexural
behavior of fly ash added ferrocement panels under
uniformly distributed load, is superior when
compared with control panels. From the criteria of
52
initial cracking load and thermal conductivity, the
optimum percentage of fly ash addition to the
ferrocement panels is 50%.

Introduction:
In the last few decades, there has been a tremendous
increase in the demand for fresh water due to rapid
growth of population and the accelerated pace of
industrialization. Rapid urbanization, especially in
developing countries like India, has affected the
availability and quality of groundwater due to its
overexploitation and improper waste disposal,
especially in urban areas. Water quality index is one of
the most effective tools to communicate information on
the quality of water to the concerned citizens and
policy makers. WQI is defined as a rating reflecting the
composite influence of different water quality
parameters. WQI is calculated from the point of view of
the suitability of groundwater for human consumption
Objectives:

To turn complex water quality data into information
that is understandable and usable by the public.
Water Quality Index based on some very important
parameters can provide a simple indicator of water
quality.

To determine the suitability of groundwater for
human consumption based on computed water
quality index values.
Methodology:
The data containing tested parameters of water
samples were collected from Zilla Panchayat Office
Dharwad This data is used in this project for the
calculation of water quality index. This forms the
attribute data.
The water samples for various parameters as per ISI
10500-1991 standards are analyzed and water quality
index that reflects the extent of the ground water
pollution is determined.
In this study, the computed WQI values ranges from
6.507 to 299.601 and therefore, can be categorized
into four types “excellent water” to “very poor”. The
table shows the percentage of water samples that
falls under different quality. The high value of WQI
at these stations has been found to be mainly from
the higher values of pH, total dissolved solids,
fluorides, and calcium hardness in the groundwater.
WQI may also be calculated for the uncovered
villages, which we could not cover due to the
shortage of time. It can also be calculated for the
lakes, rivers and open wells for the assessment of
suitability of water.

Introduction
Engineering judgment and judicious use of
available materials can reduce the cost of housing.
Efforts are needed in this regard to bring about
economy in housing cost and also proper utilization
of limited resources. Arch lintels are the structural
members, which are used in building to bridge
across the openings of doors, windows or
cupboards etc to support the weight of the
superimposed masonry. Brick arch lintels show
many cracks and steel sections are wasteful and
become loose when exposed to sun due to their
high rate of expansion and corrosion problems. Due
to some of this reasons arch lintels are constructed
using pre-cast concrete blocks as a substitute to
above mentioned materials. The proposed study is
to use the pre-cast concrete block, which is wedge
shaped made of cement concrete with partial
replacement of Cement by granite cutting slurry
waste powder and coarse Aggregate by Mangalore
tile bats and compared with cement concrete brick
arch.
Objectives:

To cast wedge shaped cost effective concrete
bricks by partial replacement of cement by
Granite cutting slurry waste powder and coarse
aggregate by Mangalore tile bats of appropriate
proportion so as to preserve the strength of
cement concrete (Tilecrete) block and at the same
time make it cost effective and eco friendly.

To construct the semi circular arch lintels using
wedge shaped cost effective concretre bricks with
different number of layers of bricks.
Methodology:
Determination of the basic properties of materials used
in concrete and new concrete mix. Determination of
the compressive strength of various mixes at 28th
days. Casting and curing the cement concrete and
Tilecrete Bricks. Construction and curing of Arch
lintels. It is chosen that 10% replacement of cement by
granite cutting slurry waste powder. This conclusion by
casting mortar cubes and calculating compressive
strength of this cubes for cement and cement + slurry
powder (for various ratios).From the above results,
20% replacement of coarse aggregate has been taken
by MANGALORE TILE BATS for construction of arch.
By using the arch mould concrete and tilecrete bricks
(with partial replacement of Cement with 10% Granite
Industry Waste (fine slurry powder) and coarse
aggregate with 20% Mangalore tile bats) can be
produced in mass, cured and handled very easily
(precast elements).Environmental friendly because
Granite fine slurry powder are dumped in and around
city limits, once it get dried it mixes with air and causes
air pollution which is hazardous for environment.
Mangalore tile bats being a waste materials being
used as a partial replacement for coarse aggregate,
hence the project becomes cost effective.
Scope for Further Work:

Replacing the fine aggregate by crusher dust and
demolished waste etc.

Replacement of cement by fly ash and marble
polished slurry powder etc.

Study of different profile and thickness of arches.

Study on effect of haunch height for load carrying

Introduction:
Cement is the second largest material consumed after
53
water Now a day’s concrete pavements are gaining
popularity for its own good paving properties. As
such a consumption of cement is increased
drastically. As cement demand increases,
production also increases.
An admixture is an additional material like flyash,
added to concrete in order to improve a particular
or desired property of concrete. Fly ash is a finely
divided residue obtained from the combustion of
powdered coal and transported by the flue gasses
and collected by electrostatic precipitator. The
important property of fly ash is its spherical form;
because of its spherical shape it improves the
workability of concrete. When it is substituted for
cement at certain percentages. Fly ash contains
reactive constituents and unreactive crystalline
matter. Reactive constituents reacts with lime and
offers hydrated minerals to impart strength and
reactive matter gives packing effect to the concrete,
filling up of pores and thus by increases the
strength Here an attempt is being made to
consume this pollution causing material to a utility
by using it in concrete.
Objectives:
Methodology:
Collection of materials. Fabrication of marsh cone
equipment. Various tests on the materials are
conducted. Based on the test result of materials, mix
design is done in accordance to Draft code IS 102621982. Using the mix design, cubes, cylinder and
beams are caste and tested for various properties.
From the results of marsh cone test, it is concluded
that, at saturation point, marsh cone time in seconds
for BRAND1, BRAND2, BRAND 3 and BRAND 4 are
11.6, 13.0, 13.3, and 16.0 respectively. From this we
can conclude that BRAND1 cement is more
compatible with admixture conplast SP 430, because
the marsh cone time is lowest than any other cements,
when compared. Hence Ultra tech cements are used
for further studies.

Introduction:
The concrete consists of hard inorganic material called
aggregate such as gravel, sand of crushed stone etc.,
mixed cement and water. A few hours after mixing
material undergo chemical reaction and mixtures get
solidified and it attains strength with age.
The strength of concrete depends upon the
components such as aggregate, quality of cement,
water-cement ratio, workability, normal consistency of
mix, proportion and age of concrete.
In new building materials, materials such as fly ash,
blast furnace slag, foundry rand, etc., are tried as
partial replacement in concrete in which mixture plays
an important role in characteristics of concrete.
Objectives:
The following are the main objective of study.

Introduction:
The RM (Resource Management) cell is used when
the ABR (available bit rate) service type has been
selected for indicating the source about the state of
traffic in the network. The RM cell reports on the
network characteristics such as bandwidth availability,
congestion state and impending congestion on the
network. The process (in which RM cell is used)
requires the source to send a resource management
cell requesting the desired bandwidth before actually
sending the cells. If the switch accepts the request, the
RM cell is passed on to next switch until it reaches the
next destination. However, if a switch cannot grant the
request it simply drops the RM cell. The source waits
till timeout and resends the request.
ATM is a data transfer technology which supports fixed
packet size data transfer. ATM, as a connectionoriented technology, establishes a virtual circuit
between the two endpoints before the actual data
exchange begins.
55
Objectives:
To utilize the spare bandwidth available in ATM
network for the transmission of non-real time data.
Advantages:

Server allocates andwidth to the clients based
on its priority and bandwidth request.

Implemented in various client-server platforms
where few users need more bandwidth often.

Provides good quality of service.

Gives more room for high-prioritized clients.

Efficient allocation of bandwidth.

Bandwidth is given to the server after client
utilizes the bandwidth to send the data.
Applications:

The most obvious application of Spare
bandwidth allocation is basic communication
mode between client and server.

The Spare bandwidth allocation application can
be used for controlling various departments of
an educational institution or a corporate
organization.
33. RELATIONAL DATA OBFUSCATION
Data Obfuscation is a mechanism that overcomes
these limitations. This techniques work within a data
set, lowering individual data item accuracy in a
systematic, controlled, and statistically rigorous way.
Data obfuscation thus lets users disseminate sensitive
data in a degraded form that, for many applications,
permits sufficient calculation accuracy, but hides the
data’s most sensitive aspect.
Objectives:
 To come up with software which shall not
completely encrypt the database but shall obfuscate
the database; so that the Database would be
accessible at the same time would maintain individual
privacy. To demonstrate the various Obfuscation
techniques we thought of taking the Banking Domain
as an example. The idea here is to develop an
Information Kiosk which shall provide various
functionalities as enlisted below:

A login facility for generic and privileged user

Obfuscation techniques used in our system involves
Introduction
Substitution: This technique consists of randomly
replacing the contents of a column of data with
information that looks similar but is completely
unrelated to the real details. For example, the
surnames in a customer database could be sanitized
by replacing the real last names with surnames drawn
from a largish random list.

Data privacy is a hot topic these days. This is
hardly a new subject, but has received an
increasing amount of attention, largely due to
ecommerce. Protecting credit card numbers,
medical data and other sensitive information has
become more important than ever before, and on a
larger scale. For all this encryption is not
necessarily required. Many application domains
benefit from data sharing, which can range from
passing data to a single party for specific
calculations to aggregating data from many entities
for data mining purposes. In some cases, however,
data sharing is impractical due to privacy concerns.
Encryption techniques require that data be
processed both before and after dissemination, and
are incapable of offering different protection levels
for different end users.
56
Shuffling: Shuffling is similar to substitution except
that the substitution data is derived from the column
itself. Essentially the data in a column is randomly
moved between rows.
Data Masking: Masking data means replacing certain
fields with a Mask character (such as an X). This
effectively disguises the data content while preserving
the same formatting on front end screens and reports.
Randomization: This technique consists of replacing
the contents of a numeric value with a randomly
generated number. For example the month of a year
value (1, 2, etc,) can be replaced by any randomly
generated number within the range 1 – 12. This is one
of the simplest and fastest Obfuscation techniques and
also preserves the look and feel of the data.
Number Variance : The Number Variance
technique is useful on numeric data. Simply put, the
algorithm involves modifying each number value in
a column by some random percentage of its real
value.
System Block Diagram:
Result and conclusion:
The goal behind developing our system was to
demonstrate the various obfuscation techniques and
how they can be used in a real time application. Thus
we came up with an Information Kiosk system for a
banking domain which provides various functionalities
to its users. The functionalities provided to a guest are:
A statistical view of the investments made, viewing
information regarding various schemes offered etc.
The customers are first authenticated, after which they
are not only provided with the functionalities offered to
the guest but are also provided with a feature to view
their personal and investment information in the
original state while viewing the information of other
customers in the obfuscated state. The administrator is
also authenticated, after which he too is provided with
the features provided to the guest and in addition has
two more features: First, which allows him to view all
the tables in both original as well as obfuscated states.
Second, which allows him to Insert/Update the tuples.
Thus, using obfuscation, our system is able to
maintain the security and privacy of the data while still
maintaining the look and feel of the data.

Introduction:
Congestion control algorithms are fundamental for
distributed systems like the global internet. These
algorithms prevent such systems from collapsing by
excessive traffic and may save resources by avoiding
useless processing. In particular, congestion control
mechanisms in the end nodes are appealing as they
control the traffic souce directly rather than its effects
inside the network. The Transport Control Protocol
(TCP) was designed to adaptively fit the network
capacity on an end-to-end basis and has become a
universal transport protocol.
TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, requiring
connection establishment between sender and
receiver for providing a reliable data transfer. A TCP
connection is entirely managed in the end nodes. To
establish the connection, either end nodes (hosts) may
start the procedure by sending a request packet to the
opposed side. The full procedure is commonly referred
to as “three-way handshake” because it involves the
exchange of three packets in total. The end node
starting the connection establishment is called client
57
host and the other side is the server host. The
three-way handshake makes use of the SYN flag (1
bit) in the TCP header to mark the packet used
exclusively for connection setup reasons.
Methodology and Results:
The client host first sends a special SYN packet to
the server host requesting a connection setup.
Provided that the server host is able to accept the
connection, it allocates the TCP buffers and
variables to the connection and sends back an
acknowledgement generally called SYN, ACK to
the
client
host.
Upon
receipt
of
the
acknowledgement of the server host, the client host
also allocates buffers and variables to the
connection,
and
transmits
another
acknowledgement ACK to the server host. After
these packet exchanges, the SYN flag is
permanently set to zero and the regular data
transmission begins. The connection termination
takes place in an analogous manner, in which any
of the two end nodes may initiate the procedure.
Another specific flag in the TCP header is used for
closing a connection, the FYN flag (1 bit). After the
connection termination, both end nodes have their
resources freed.
Conclusion:
TCP is a transport protocol that guarantees reliable
ordered delivery of data packets over wired
networks. Although it is well tuned for wired
networks, TCP performs poorly in mobile ad hoc
networks. This is because TCP’s implicit
assumption that any packet loss is due to
congestion is invalid in mobile ad hoc networks
where wireless channel errors, link contention,
mobility and multi-path routing may significantly
invokes congestion control procedures, it will suffer
from performance degradation and unfairness.

Introduction
In any search engine search behavior by a potential
customer is not clear-cut and distinct. It is an
involved and downright complicated process to
implement for maximum “FINDABILITY” and
“VISIBILITY” of the products and services online.
And what adds to this difficulty is “language”.
Identifying, assembling and implementing the
58
diverse query techniques of phrases or keywords may
be an exhaustive job for common man because of
their poor hold on English language. The multilingual
people search project provides a platform to common
man for using the multi-lingual search engine
efficiently. It works by storing information of different
persons using different languages in the database,
which they retrieve later on the specific request.
When the user inputs the keyword for search, the
contents of the page is analyzed to determine the
index/key word. The interface will provide the user with
the choice of selecting a language (English, Hindi, and
Kannada).To assist the user with the keyboard help is
provided in the help document. User is also provided
with the option to add, update or delete the database
but only with the administrative privilege. All the above
option requires a thorough search of the database and
also updates the database. An output screen with
suitable result is displayed for the respective
operation.
Objective

To provide common man a search engine where
he can choose a language he is comfortable with.
It relieves common man from the overload of
learning English language and gives an easy and
explicable interface for searching details of
persons stored in database with the ease of
choosing a preferred language. It can also be used
as a search engine in a broader perspective.
Methodology
The project basically uses Unicode as its backbone.
The scripting languages used are HTML & PHP and
MySQL for the queries. The use of XAMPP makes it
possible to run apache in windows. It is a free and
open source cross-platform web server package,
consisting mainly of the Apache HTTP Server, MySQL
database, and interpreters for scripts written in the
PHP and Perl programming languages mainly used for
web developing projects.
Results and Conclusion
The main objective of this project is achieved by
providing a search engine that can understand 2
languages “Kannada and Hindi”. It provides a highly
interactive user friendly GUI based software tool. This
project is helpful in providing the common people a
platform to use search engines in their local language
(specifically Kannada & Hindi). This system is easy to
understand and access. It is simple to use with an
appealing interface.
Scope for Future Work
The software can be easily enhanced. The flexibility of
the software allows for the enhancement to meet
timely changing needs of the user. Other regional
languages can be added to increase its usage. The
search can be made more efficient by providing a
translator which can be used in translating the
information provided and searching the whole
database for the desired output. An additional
facility to add photos and thumb impression along
with person’s detail will make the information more
sophisticated.

The feedback loop was commonly called as OODA
loop as shown in Figure 2, used by military officers for

Introduction
The recent growth in the user demands and the
technology transformation in networking have led to
a paradigm shift in designing new modalities of
operations of network with increased capabilities
and ease of use. The need of the hour is that the
network adapts its behavior to the changes in
networks, learns from its environment and exploits
the knowledge to improve its future behavior.
Cognition can be compared to the mental process
including above mentioned aspects. In this,
Perception is to learn from the environment and
understand the changes of environment. Acting and
planning evolves from what has been understood,
Learning is to understand and grow in the
environment, Reasoning is to analyze the reasons
or the motivations of the changes and Decision
making is to decide what to do according to the
results of reasoning to achieve a predefined goal.
Figure 2. OODA Loop
Objectives:
There are two important components that need to be
included in the OODA loop. One is the overarching
module, which deals with the input to the loop and
guides the orientation and decision components by
providing a context in which to make a decision. The
second one is the learning module, which prevents
mistakes from previous iterations occurring in future
iterations.

To find the optimized path from source to
destination
by
implementing
numerical
optimization techniques.
Methodology:
Cognitive network is a network composed of
elements that, through learning and reasoning,
dynamically adapt to varying network conditions in
order to optimize end-to-end performance as shown
in Figure 1. This has evolved to meet the
requirements of the network as a whole, rather than
the individual network components.
It can be concluded that the Davidon- Fletcher-Powell
algorithm is the better algorithm of the three for
optimization as the time taken by it to compute the
best path is lesser and that the method it employs in
finding the optimal solution has a property of
superlinear rate of convergence on general functions,
and quadratic termination using exact line searches on
quadratic functions.
Genetic algorithms work with the coding of the
parameter set and not the parameter themselves.

Numerous computer applications utilize images for
visualizing objects. An image gives more life and
understanding in any field. An image is composed
of several objects. Ray tracing is a method of
creating visual art in description of an object or
scene is mathematically converted into a picture.
To create these objects it need to read a text file
containing the information describing the objects
and lighting a scene and generates a image of that
scene from the view point of the camera also
described in the text file.
A freely available image creation application in the
public domain called Persistence of Vision Ray
Trace (POV-Ray) provides these features. The
POV-Ray creates image using rendering technique
called retracing, that is software traces imaginary
light rays backwards from where the end point lies
(pixels on computer screen) to their initial point
(some light source of the screen). This step is
repeated pixel by pixel until entire image is created.
Objective:

To provide an interface which generates the
images dynamically.
Methodology:
Dramatically decreases the memory storage, because
a single code runs for the different views. Each time
the user gives the input, the code is generated and is
overwritten.Less man hours are required. Less prone

Biometric devices are key security devices considered
in the development of a security plan. The Project is to
investigate the current techniques for fingerprint
recognition. This target can be mainly decomposed
into image preprocessing, feature extraction and
feature match. For each sub-task, some classical and
up-to-date methods in literatures are analyzed. Based
on the analysis, an integrated solution for fingerprint
recognition is developed for demonstration. The
demonstration program is coded by MATLAB. For the
program, some optimization at coding level and
algorithm level are proposed to improve the
performance of the fingerprint recognition system.
These performance enhancements are shown by
experiments conducted upon a variety of fingerprint
images. Also, the experiments illustrate the key issues
of fingerprint recognition that are consistent with what
the available literatures say.

and acceptable accuracy except for some cases
that the user’s finger is too dirty or dry. However,
the testing database for our project is from the
available fingerprints provided by FVC2002

2. Opto-Coupler: The function of the opto-coupler
circuit is to provide isolation between the 8051 and the
driver circuit. The signal generated from the 8051 is
fed to the opto-coupler through a current limiting
resistor. The signal that arrives from the 8051 makes
the LED glow and biases the opto-coupler transistor.
The transistor conducts getting into saturation region.
Now the biasing is provided to the driver transistor
through the resistances R2 and R3. The transistor Q1
also conducts and provides a voltage of 9V across the
diode, to drive the relay. From the relay contacts the
bike is made ON.
Results
This application is useful for not only fuel filling, but
also for loading of road tanker trucks with chemicals,
oil or even gasoline at filling terminals and tank farms.
The same process described above can be used by a
chemical manufacturing company for example to
automate its loading and dispatches.
Conclusion
Methodology
Although hurdles remain, it’s a technology that
holds great promise for the future. The principle
hurdle is the high cost of the technology which isn’t
permitting its entry into every field. Currently it’s
being used only by the higher end vehicles. But
with further dip in prices, this technology will
inevitably make its mark in every sphere. An added
advantage of this is that it can be used by a layman
without depending on a technical person. If
efficiently implemented, RFID has the power to
make everyday life unfathomably secure.

Introduction
Biomass power, also called bio power, is electricity
produced from biomass fuels. Biomass consists of
plant materials and products. Biomass fuel include
residue from wood, paper product industries,
residues from food production and processing,
trees and grasses grown specially as energy crops
and gaseous fuels produced from solid biomass,
animal waste and landfills.
Biomass can be converted into electricity in one of
the several processes: (a) The majority of biomass
electricity is generated today using a steam engine.
In this process, biomass is burned in a boiler to
make steam. The steam then turns a turbine which
is connected to a generator that produces
electricity. (b) Solid biomass is converted into fuel
gas in a gasifier. Biomass contains methane and
carbon dioxide. The biogas can be used for heating
or for electricity generation in a modified
combustion engine.
Objective
The objective is to identify technologies that could
be used in providing affordable and reliable power
supply to rural areas, and effect implementation
through distributed generation schemes whenever
feasible.

System Description
The above figure shows the schematic diagram of the
plant producing power using 4 stroke engine and
microcontroller feedback circuit.
Biogas plant: Biogas is produced in this plant through
anaerobic fermentation which is collected in dome
shaped space. The biogas flows through a small hole
in the roof of the dome to the IC engine through outlet
gas pipe.
IC Engine: A four stroke petrol start kerosene engine
is used to convert chemical energy in to mechanical
energy. IC engine is coupled to the alternator.
Alternator: The electrical machine which converts
mechanical power into alternating current power is
called as an alternator.
63
ULN 2003AG IC is used as a driver for Relay
switching operation which is employed in our
project to operate the switching nature of the
machines.
Stepper Motor: A transition of bit pattern causes the
rotor to move by a small amount, or a “STEP”, so
named as “stepper motor”. The size of this step is
dependent on the teeth arrangement of the motor.
Speed control is achieved by simply varying the
frequency of the bit pattern.

This last simulation shows that the steady state
velocity is about 370rad/s and there are some velocity
oscillations according to the extern torque variations.
Thus, to reduce the output sensitivity to extern torque
variations, it is necessary to implement some type of
feedback control scheme. The reference speed signal
is shown in figure 2(c).

Initially the reference speed is 150rad/s and is greater
than the idle speed of the engine, which are 100rad/s.
If we try to simulate the engine response, when the

The model can be used for closed-loop cruise velocity
control and injection/ignition system simulations, too. It
is possible to integrate this model into the complete

Introduction
Advances in Image Acquisition and storage technology
have led to tremendous growth in very large and
detailed image databases. These images, if analyzed,
can reveal useful information to the human users.
Image Mining deals with the extraction of explicit
knowledge, image data relationship or other patterns
not explicitly stored in images. Image mining is more
than just an extension of data mining to image domain.
It is an interdisciplinary endeavor that draws an
expertise in computer vision, image processing, image
retrieval, data mining, machine learning, database
and artificial intelligence.
Objectives
To deal with the extraction of knowledge, image
data relationship, which are not explicitly stored in
the images.
Methodology
A set of images which were affected with different
stages of infection were collected and separated
into different grades. On these sets of images
statistics like Mean, Median, Standard-Deviation,
Covariance, Moment, Skewness, Kurtosis, Variance
were calculated separately on Red, Green and Blue
planes of the JPEG Image lying in that grade. Test
Image is given as an input to the program and all
the above mentioned features are calculated for
that image. Each of these features is compared
with the values stored for the standard images,
present in the database. The maximum percentage
hit occurs, if the maximum features of the test
image lie in the range of values of Grade1, Grade2
or Grade3. Depending on the maximum percentage
of hits for a particular grade, appropriate
information can be suggested to the doctor.
This technique (CAIR) can be used for reducing
and enlarging images as well as removing items
from the image which are not wanted (by manually
painting 'negative weight' over an area of the
image). This operator can be used for a variety of
image manipulations including: aspect ratio change,
image retargeting and object removal. The operator
can be easily integrated with various saliency
measures, as well as user input, to guide the
resizing process. The decision support system
designed by using the concepts of image mining in
this project offers a robust and precise tool for
medical image processing problem. Image mining
do simplify image classification problem which is
highlighted in the case study discussed. So it can
be concluded that image mining brings down the

Introduction
Arrangement inside the bus:
Aim of this project is to design an automated system
that can hold the medical history of the patients and
medical advisory. This device automatically intimates
the patients for their medical prescription from time to
time. This device also intimates the patient about the
pharmaceutical inventory detail. The project realizes
the design of “Remote intelligent patient assistance
system”. This is mainly accomplished by the use of a
microcontroller and a GSM.
Objectives

To get medical history stored in the device by
sending the request SMS to the device.

To remind the patient when his next appointment
is due.
Methodology:
RFID Technology are being used and applied to
provide information to visually impaired people to
travel in bus independently from one place to other
place especially in Metropolitan cities. For common
people and also for the people who are new to the
city, LCD is provided in bus to identify the next bus
stop, the information provided in LCD can be in any
language. The voice processor system is rerecordable.
The whole project can be implemented in railway
system, libraries and shopping malls.
68
The basic block diagram of the system
The microcontroller synchronizes all the activities of
the system. It calculates the timings to send the
reminder SMS. GSM modem is used for the
communication part, i.e., to send and receive SMS.
Now as a receiver the modem receives all the SMS
sent by the patients and sends it in an order to the
microcontroller and it also sends SMS in an order to
the corresponding destination. I2C memory stores the
details of each patient in a particular location, the
medical prescription for a particular reading of any
parameter. RTC also acts as a reminder. The timings
are calculated by the systems and the remainders are
sent based on the RTC. But for the internal working of
the microcontroller, it uses the internal crystal oscillator
output as clock pulses. The 4x4 keypad is used to feed
in all the information required. The doctor uses the
system directly to control the system. The doctor
can view the SMS sent received by the device or
the details stored in the memory using the LCD
screen.
Results and conclusions
The system designed thus ensures the proper
medical assistance by intimating the patient of the
appointments with the doctor and also the medical
prescription from time to time. It intimates the doctor
about the patient’s abnormal condition and thus
provides the patient with appropriate medical
advice or the next appointment given by the doctor.
It also helps the patients in getting their medical
history at any time by requesting for it.

Time sharing when used in general purpose operating
system provides good response time to the users.
However response times vary with load conditions in
the system and this behavior is not acceptable for a
class of applications called real time applications. A
real time application is an application which requires a
‘timely response’ from the computer system to prevent
failure. Thus real time operating systems are used to
meet the response requirements of time critical
applications.
A Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) is a
multitasking operating system intended for real time
applications. Real-time response describes the
software that produces the correct response to
external and internal events at the proper time. RTOS
is an operating system with timing contraints i.e. each
task has to be completed before a deadline. The
“Async RTOS” is a multi-tasking kernel designed for
time-critical embedded applications.
Async refers to events occurring without central control
or in unpredictable time interval between successive
events.
Objective

Conclusion:
Real time operating system i.e. micro-os is developed
for Zilog-Z8F64 processor which can be used for real

Introduction
Iris recognition is an overview of the new emerging
biometric technology. A biometric system provides
automatic identification of an individual based on the
unique feature or characteristic possessed by an
individual. The focus will be on image processing and
security aspects. This new technology overcomes
previous shortcomings and provides recognition of an
individual without contact or invasion at extremely high
confidence levels. In this project there is a real time iris
pattern recognition system and personal details
database using CCD (charge coupled device) camera
and
suitable
lighting
conditions
successfully
implemented.
Objective
To solve the security problem by checking the validity
of persons.
70
Methodology
Firstly, image preprocessing is performed followed
by extracting the iris portion of the eye image. The
extracted iris part is then normalized; the Iris Code
is constructed using 1D Gabon filters. Finally two
Iris Codes are compared to find the Hamming
Distance, which is a fractional measure of
dissimilarity. Canny Edge Detection is performed on
the preprocessed image. The Hough transform is a
technique, which can be used to isolate features of
a particular shape within an image. Eyelashes can
be masked by using thresholding where a certain
level is set. Specular reflections along the eye
image are detected using thresholding. MATLAB
Implementation is done. To test the system, two
data sets of eye images will be used as inputs.
But, this model senses the faults itself and alerts
concerned person in time; this system tells which
parameters have failed audibly in control room and
also SMSes about the faulty parameter to
maintenance engineer’s mobile which reduces the
time requirement of whole fault detection process.
Objective
To make the fault recognition in large scale production
industries easier and time efficient without being in
contact with the machine.
Methodology
Testing the uniqueness of iris patterns is important,
since recognition relies on iris patterns from
different eyes being entirely independent, with
failure of a test of statistical independence resulting
in a match. The mean Hamming distance for
comparisons between inter-class iri templates was
found to be 0.36. It can be stated that segmentation
is the critical stage of iris recognition, since areas
that are wrongly identified as iris regions will corrupt
biometric templates resulting in very poor
recognition. The results presented have also shown
that segmentation can be the most difficult stage of
iris recognition because its success is dependent
on the imaging quality of eye images.

system could be implemented.

power to the load only during no-theft condition and
cuts off power supply when theft occurs.
Objectives
To reduce the power theft by designing embedded
power theft detector and controller using pic
microcontroller for single phase.
Methodology
When the software is executed ADC takes place
and compares the values of current transformer 1
and current transformer 2. When both the values
are equal it indicates No-theft conditions whereas
as unequal condition indicates the theft condition,
and if theft condition occurs relay is used to cut off
the load and another relay out put is given to


To remove turbidity, bacteria, toxic chemicals like
arsenic fluoride, suspended solids and colloidal
solids.

To make comparative study with conventional
coagulants and low cost treatment.
Methodology
The system is working satisfactorily for all test

Matured seeds are removed from the pods & shelled.
Seed kernels are crushed & sieved. The seed powder
is mixed with a small amount of clean water to form a
paste. The paste is then diluted to the required
strength before using it. Insoluble material is filtered
out using either a fine mesh screen or muslin cloth.
The milky white suspension is added to the turbid
water & stirred fast at least for half a minute. Then the
water must be slowly & regularly stirred for about 5
minutes. After stirring the treated water should be
covered & left to settle for at least 1 hour. If moved or
shaken before then, clarification will take much longer
time or failed to reach completion.
The removal efficiencies of various parameters by
Drumstick seed powder are tabulated. For constant
dosage the efficiency of turbidity removal by Moringa
Oleifera is more compared to alum to treat same
sample of water. The efficiency of turbidity removal is
high in filtered solution than in unfiltered solution.
Coagulant feeding done by wet process is more
efficient compared to that of dry process. The
amount of sludge produced from drumstick seed
solution is less compared to that of alum. Moringa
seed solution has the ability to reduce iron to very
high extent and will reduce hardness. Water
clarification using Moringa Oleifera is a low cost
water treatment and can be effectively used at
household levels.

Introduction
Electrochemical treatment (ECT) technology has been
shown considerable interest during recent years as a
very effective treatment method for wastewaters
containing refractory and non-biodegradable materials.
It uses sacrificial electrodes in an electric field, which
can
directly
or
indirectly
degrade
the
pollutants/contaminants at ambient temperatures.
Hospitals use a variety of chemical substances such
as pharmaceuticals, radio-nuclides, solvents, and
disinfectants for medical purposes as diagnostics,
disinfections and research. These effluents are loaded
with pathogenic microorganisms, partially metabolized
pharmaceutical substances, radioactive elements, and
other toxic substances. Such effluents if not treated
properly could be dangerous to the ecological balance
and public health.
Objectives

To electrochemically treat the real hospital
wastewater (HWW) stream generated from the
operation theatre (OT) (diluted blood water with
solids-tissue) as also combined sewage.

To study the effect of number of electrode plates,
cell voltage, electrolysis time, and the
concentration of additives viz, coagulant aid and
73
sodium chloride (NaCl) on the removal of COD
and solids.

To study the settleability of the solid residue
and the filterability characteristics of the treated
effluent from the batch ECR.
Methodology
Hospital wastewater was obtained from the
operation theatre as also the combined sewage.
Both these wastewaters had a very low
transparency with OT-HWW having blood red color.
This wastewater was directly subjected to
electrolysis using iron plate electrodes. The ECC in
batch mode were conducted in a 1.5L ECR of
cubical shape using iron plates as electrodes. The
electrodes were arranged in parallel and connected
to the respective terminals of the DC rectifier. In
each batch experimental run, 1.5L of wastewater
was fed into the electrochemical reactor and stirred
continuously to maintain good mixing in the reactor.
The ECC in batch mode was carried out by varying
the cell voltage and by varying the number of
plates.

Introduction
Irrigation with wastewater is a form of recycling that is
practiced in many developing countries. In this study,
an attempt is made to assess the effect of wastewater
on soil properties and soil fertility. In developing
country like India, where agriculture is the main source
of economy, the disposal of wastewater on land for
irrigation is of great importance. The fast paced growth
of population has led to an increase in industrialization
& urbanization leading to increase in demand for
water. This results in water scarcity from the naturally
occurring sources. Increase in demand of water also
leads to increase in generation of wastewater. The
disposal of wastewater without any treatment may
have deleterious effect on the soil. The effects depend
on nature of soil and also the quality of wastewater
used for irrigation.
Objectives

To assess the effect of wastewater on soil
properties.
The optimal results were obtained at 4V and 4 plate
configuration. Use of NaCl as an additive at optimal
operating conditions to improve COD degradation
was a total failure, as the chloride content in the
wastewater increased thus increasing the applied
current. Al electrodes showed no sludge formation
nor showed good filterability. SEM micrographs
showed the changes in the anode plate structure
with dents formed after repeated ECC cycles.
Prolonged use of iron electrodes as anodes
produced large number of dents on their surface.

To examine the suitability of wastewater for
irrigation purpose.

To analyze the various soil characteristics

To trace out the heavy metals present in soil fed
with wastewater.
Standard sampling procedures were followed for
collecting wastewater and soil. Four samples of
Wastewater were collected near the treatment plant at
different locations. Seven soil samples were selected
from wastewater irrigated agricultural lands around
treatment plant from a radius of about 3 km. Then the
samples were air dried, pounded and passed through
a 2mm sieve and preserved in clean plastic bags for
analysis. The soil and water samples are analysed for
various parameters such as pH, Electrical
Conductivity, Alkalinity, Turbidity, Phosphates, Nitrate,
Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Copper, Cadmium, Chromium,
Lead, Magnesium), Calcium, Sodium, Potassium,
BOD, COD, Chlorides. The Wastewater samples were
characterized for various physico-chemical properties,
nutrient and heavy metal contents. The results are
tabulated and the required parameters are determined.
The results from the present study suggest a novel
electro-coagulation scheme for the treatment of the
segregated waste stream from hospitals, except for
the fact that at higher applied voltages the
electrochemical reactor overflows with treated
wastewater, while at lower voltages it displays long
electrolyze times.

Introduction
Intrusions and anomalies are two different kinds of
abnormal traffic events in an open network
environment. An intrusion takes place when an
unauthorized access of a host computer system is
attempted. The intrusion detection system (IDS)
offers intelligent protection of networked computers
or distributed resources much better than using
fixed-rule firewalls. The newly proposed HIDS is
designed to solve these problems with much
enhanced performance. This project presents a
new hybrid intrusion detection system (HIDS). This
system combines the positive features of both
intrusion detection models to achieve higher
detection accuracy, lower false alarms .The
episode rules are used to build the HIDS, which
detects not only known intrusive attacks but also
anomalous connection sequences. the intrusion
detection system (IDS) offers intelligent protection
of networked computers or distributed resources

Objectives

To detect unknown attacks.

To provide information about the attacks to the

A base-support data mining scheme is proposed to
facilitate episode rule generation. Combining SNORT
and our ADS, the HIDS outperforms the SNORT and

This project deals with the measure of moisture
contents of the diary products which is monitored
during manufacturing by the use of humidity sensors.
Objectives
To maintain a ripening process, humidity monitor &
temperature control.

Methodology
If the cheese is manufactured with high moisture
content, the humidity in the storage area can be a
little lower, than if the cheese is made with lower
moisture content. For moist cheese, which goes to
storage, air humidity of 86-90% should be sufficient;
for a more dry cheese it will be necessary to keep
air humidity at 90-92%. Air circulation units should
come on only 1-2 minutes every hour.

Based on the audit, the following conclusions were
drawn:
Introduction

Energy audit is an important tool in transforming the
fortunes of the organisation. This is highly relevant
in sugar industry as it deals with renewable energy
source which is looked upon as rural power house.
The scope for conservation is immense and, if
properly harnessed, it can take the organisation to
the path of prosperity. Increasing industrial
competition and ever increasing of energy,
Use of Energy Efficient Motors is cost effective in
saving electrical energy. With replacement by
energy efficient motors, saving can be as much as
Rs. 40 lakhs per season.

It is found that boiler efficiency is directly linked to
moisture content. Reduction of moisture will help
in improving efficiency.
76

Ceramic wool insulation reduces the radiation
loss considerably.


Similar audit can be performed at other sugar
industries and a bench mark can be set up so
that performance can be evaluated.

An indirect bagasse dryer can be developed to
reduce moisture from 50% to 45%. With this
boiler efficiency can be improved up to 72%.
Based on the study, Form Fill Machine (FFM) was
fabricated. This involved – procurement of frames,
welding of frames, design and fabrication of
suitable wooden rollers (for smooth movement of
plastic films), coupling with high torque motors,
fabrication of filler unit (which provides vertical
platforms for pressing operation while heat-sealing
and cutting), providing heater unit and protection
cover.

The entire assembly can be done with much lower
cost which makes this quite affordable by cottage
and home industries.

The machine does not include any complex parts
and this makes it very user-friendly. As there are
no pneumatic or hydraulic parts, it requires much
lesser floor space.

No heavy duty electrical units are included in this
machine. The machine will run on single phase
power supply.
Aesthetics and hygiene play a very vital role in
deciding the product life management of FMCG
products in global consumer market. These two
factors can be enhanced by implementing various
new food handling packaging techniques before
releasing the product for sale in the market. Though
the technology is well known to many food product
manufacturers, the problem in adapting these
techniques in their plant is the cost parameter.
Packing machines in today’s market conditions are
quite expensive. This makes packing machines
affordable only to medium and large scale
enterprises, while small home and cottage
industries will still rely on the very same manual
methods of packaging, thus hinders the production
rate, in spite of good demand for their product. This
explains the need for a low cost, yet economical
and affordable, packing machine.

The size and quantities of packets formed can
easily be varied by adjusting the size of rollers.

Based on packing requirement, the speed of
machine (packets per unit time is controlled by the
operator (by varying the speed of the motor).
Objective
Introduction
The objective of the project is to fabricate an ultra
low cost food packaging machine that can pack
both liquid and solid foods which is affordable by
cottage and home industries.

Methodology
MATLAB has a built-in function to perform this posttraining analysis. The network output and the
corresponding targets are processed through posttraining. The resulting correlation coefficient (Rvalue) between the ANN outputs and the targets
presents the measure of how well the ANN predicts
the results. If the resulting R-value is one, then
there is a perfect correlation between targets and
outputs.
The presently used flash tank has a single level
controller value and a gravity drop value. When the
button is pressed, the gravity drop flow valve is raised
and water flows. Once flushing is over, the valve drops
due to gravity, thereby, cutting out the tank once it is
full, it also shuts off. Take a tank with a dimension
46*22*14. Then take other steel sheet of dimension
3*22*14. At a distance of 20cm from left plane place
the sheet. Using M-SEAL, seal the gap and make it

place a gravity drop valve. Now at the height of 22 cm
place a control valve on right side. Next at the 14 cm
height on the bifurcation plate, place a float valve
facing left. Connect the 2 pipes coming out of each in

turbines and other structural materials in coal-fired
boilers are recognized as being the main cause of
downtime at power generation plants. This has
increased interest in wear and friction properties of
alloys and the development of wear protection
systems in industrial applications. High velocity oxyfuel (HVOF) thermal spray process, using oxygen
and liquid petroleum gas as the fuel gas, has been
used successfully to deposit Ni-Cr-Al alloy on Nickel
based super alloy Nimonic-75. Under the given
spray parameters seemingly layer structured
coating has been achieved. The coatings are
characterized regarding their microstructure,
porosity and micro hardness. The unique micro
structure containing flat un-melted particle improves
the wear resistance of the coating. The wear
performance of the HVOF sprayed coatings was
found to be further improved by furnace heat
treatment to grow stable α-Al2O3 oxide layer.
Methodology
The present work is focused on a. The development of wear resistant Ni-Cr-Al

Aluminium is the earth’s most abundant metallic
element, making up approximately eight per cent of
the planet’s crust. Aluminium is three times lighter than
steel, but when alloyed, can attain steel’s high-strength
characteristics. It is corrosion-resistant, making it
hygienic and long-lasting. Grain refiner leads the world
in the development and production of highly effective
grain refining agents for the aluminium industry. Grain
refiners are considered to provide benefits in a number
of ways including improved feeding during
solidification, reduced and more evenly distributed
79
porosity, and reduced hot tearing. There are a
number of refiners for the foundry industry used
industrially. Many potential grain refiners, such as
ALSR and TIBAL, are suggested for Al-Si casting
alloys.

Objective
Methodology
3 Kgs of LM 6 is heated in the range of 700 to
730˚C, cover flux is added to it to remove the slag
present on the surface area. According to the
weight % the powdered grain refiners are added to
this and stirred for uniform distribution. 2 to 3
degasser tablets was added to reduce blowholes
and minimize porosity in the casting. The two die
halves were held firmly together with C-clamps.
Then the molten metal is poured into the dies. After
solidification the cooled castings in the form of
cylindrical bars of diameter 25 mm and length 150
mm were removed from the dies by loosening the
clamps. A similar approach was adopted for all the
other compositions and corresponding castings
were obtained. Throughout the investigation, the
castings were prepared by heating the 3 kgs of LM6
and adding the corresponding weight % of grain
refiners. Two specimens were prepared one for
CTE testing and other for microstructure study.
From the obtained graphs, it was concluded that at
6% of ALSR expansion is minimum in the
temperature range of 40-200˚C and at 4% minimum
expansion is at temperature range of 270-400˚C.
Optical microstructure examination has been
carried out to check the homogeneity of grain
refiners. Aluminium alloys can prove to be very
good substitution for heavy metals in high
temperature areas. With the decreased cost and
high efficiency these alloys can hence prove to be
very economically used in all the above mentioned
fields.

To design an energy generating unit using foot steps
(thereby, helping to solve the present energy crisis).
Methodology
Dynamo: The DC Generator used here is a
Permanent magnet DC Generator which means it has
a permanent magnet inside, which creates magnetic
lines of force. And the winding are coupled to the
Generator’s shaft and in turn it is connected to the
pinion which receives the primary rotation from the
rack. When the winding are rotated the magnetic lines
of force are cut, then a small amount of electric current
is generated .Again the electric current generated is
directly proportional to the reciprocating height.
Electronic circuit: After receiving the voltage induced
by the DYNAMO it is made to pass through an
OPAMP circuit which configured to give a gain of 100.
This amplification is sufficient enough to for the
purpose of our plan. In this circuit an attempt is made
to actual control the current and voltages generated
and bring it to an almost continuous supply mode by
using capacitor at place where it is in need. And an IC

maximum gain of 2*105 that’s too more for us and the
resistors used plays a major role in the amplification
.So once the voltage is amplified to a sufficient count
then the output voltage from the electronic circuit is
given to the display.
Display (LED): This is a LED which when glows gives
a indication that the current is flowing across it. This
will illustrate that the project designed is accomplished
because the end result expected is glowing of the LED
and a final voltage reading and current reading is
taken and the power generated is calculated by using
the formula, P=V*I
The generation could be simply increased by
increasing the windings which increases the amount of
interaction with the magnetic field and also by
simply amplifying the produced one.

Introduction
A judicious combination of two or more materials
that produces a synergistic effect is called a
composite material. It is a material system
composed of two or more physically distinct phases
whose combination produces aggregate properties
that are different from those of its constituents. In
order to obtain reliable composite materials in
structural applications and to utilize fully the
potential of reinforcing fibers, both perfect
impregnation and strong interfacial bond formation
have to be guaranteed. In the present study, the
mechanical properties of jute roving reinforced
epoxy composites were investigated as a function
of fiber loading and fiber surface wettability.
Objectives

To prepare Jute roving reinforced epoxy
composites by using hand lay-up technique.

To study the Mechanical properties of prepared
laminates on Universal Testing Machine.
Methodology
Glass reinforcing fabric is positioned manually in
the open mold, and resin is brushed, over and into
the glass plies. Entrapped air is removed manually
with squeegee and rollers to complete the
laminated structure. A hardener initiates curing in
the resin system, which hardens the fiber reinforced
resin composite without external heat. Figure below
shows the basic process of hand lay-up.
Laminates are fabricated by hand lay-up technique
and cured under light pressure at room temperature
for 24 hr. One group of E-glass epoxy composite
laminate is also fabricated for comparison purpose.
The best combinations of the constituents which
exhibit good mechanical properties are chosen as
the optimum. The result of various tests is recorded
& graphs are plotted.
The preparation of Jute roving reinforced epoxy
composite laminates is done by hand lay up technique.
It is noticed that the specimen-1 is a brittle material but
specimen-2 and specimen-3 are ductile materials.
Among the three compositions, specimen-2 stands first
in withstanding high compressive and also bending
loads.The specimen-1 which is made of Jute roving is
an organic material and eco-friendly. Also it is found
that the bending strength of specimen-1 and
specimen-2 is almost equal.

This work can be extended with Organic Grass,
Coir pith and Bamboo fibers as the reinforcement.

The Jute roving and Glass fiber can be combined
together to form the reinforcing phase of the
composite laminate to get a higher strength which
results in Hybrid composites.

Introduction
Composites materials are those, which are created
artificially by combining two or more materials, which
usually
have
dissimilar
characteristics.
The
constituents of a composite material can be identified
macroscopically. This is in contrast to the usual
metallic alloys whose constituents i.e., phases can be
identified only under a higher microscopic examination
and not macroscopically. Composites are materials
that are comprised of strong load-carrying materials
(known as reinforcement) imbedded in a weaker
81
material (known as matrix). Reinforcement provides
strength and rigidity, helping to support structural
load. The matrix, or binder, maintains the position
and orientation of the reinforcement, balance loads
between
the
reinforcements,
protect
the
reinforcement from environment degradation, and
provide shape and form to the structure. The matrix
phase surrounds the reinforcement.
Objectives

To create an awareness on the various
environmental pollution aspects and issues.

To collate, interpret, analyse and disseminate
recent international research knowledge and
development of polymer composite materials in
construction to encourage uptake.

produced from quarry/mines, if not disposed in a
proper manner, may create environmental nuisance in
near by areas. These materials can be economically
used for various purposes, sometimes with proper
treatment. So, keeping this in view, a case study was
done to investigate the possible use of quarry dust and
waste from limestone mines in manufacture of
construction bricks.
Objectives

To investigate the use of quarry (granite) dust and
limestone dust in manufacture of construction
bricks.

To evaluate the best possible mixture/aggregate

Introduction
Quarrying of granite and limestone has been
extensively done in Karnataka mainly for
82
From the test results it is revealed that the mix 1:1.5:3
(cement : sand : baby jelly) of standard mix and its
corresponding modified mix using granite dust and
lime stone dust have the highest compressive strength
in its class. The use of quarry dust with cementitious
properties can result in major savings of conventional
raw material. The economic value of the dust can
be further increased by sieving the dust for
standard sizes as required by the consumer. Waste
from quarries/mines can be effectively used to
improve the strength of concrete in certain
applications.
Scope for future Work

Similar tests can be done with different mix
ratios and by varying curing time.

The strength can be compared for a known
range of particle size, thus the influence of
particle size on strength properties would be
evaluated.

Tests can be done with other waste materials
like fly ash, mill tailings etc. to study the
possible use of these materials in construction
industry.


The motor will not turn on after sending the
command on if the wet level is high due to rains.
Methodology
The circuit is connected to the mobile through the data
cable. The signals send from the mobile are in RS 232
format, so these are converted in TTL using the
MAX232 IC. The TTL signals are given to the
microcontroller to the serial input. The signals send
from the microcontroller are in serial format.
The micro controller takes the serial signal and
converts it and send a decimal signal to switch on the
device. The signal sent from the microcontroller is
amplified and a relay is turned on. The relay turns on
the motor. The dryness checking section verifies for
the dryness, when the soil becomes wet the motor is
automatically switched off.

Silk, popularly known in the textile industry for its luster
and mechanical properties, is produced by cultured
silkworms. Silks represent a unique family of structural
83
proteins that are biocompatible, degradable, and
mechanically superior, offer a wide range of
properties, are amenable to aqueous or organic
solvent processing and can be chemically modified
to suit a wide range of biomedical applications.
They are a unique group of fibrous proteins with
unusually high mechanical strength in fiber form.
The clinical success of silk sutures and availability
of silkworm silk have encouraged a recent
expansion of new biomaterials generated from the
original suture-based protein harvested and
processed from silkworms. Silks from silkworms
and orb-weaving spiders have impressive
mechanical properties in addition to environmental
stability, biocompatibility, controlled proteolytic
biodegradability, morphologic flexibility and the
ability for amino acid side change modification to
immobilize growth factors.
This project explores the possibility of using silk
fibres including waste silk fibres as useful
biomaterials with suitable applications in biomedical
field. For this purpose, silk fibres from waste
cocoons, reeling industry and spun silk industry will
be utilized and suitably modified to convert into
useful biomaterials.
Objectives:

To investigate the possibility and efficiency of
Silk degumming using natural materials and
Enzymes.

To understand the dissolution behaviour of Silk
Fibroin in Metallic salts.

To analyse the properties and possibility of
application of various biomaterials for
biomedical industry.
Methodology:

Degumming of Silk using enzymes (Trypsin or
Alacalase or others).

Dissolution of degummed Silk fibroin in Metallic
Salts.

Regeneration of Silk Protein using Dialysis
Method.

Concentrating the protein by air drying and
acidification.

Conversion of fibroin protein into Biomaterials
such as Films, Powder, Gels Etc,

Analysis of regenerated Protein and study of
properties of various biomaterials.
Fibroin is the principal water insoluble protein (i.e.
78% of the weight of raw silk) with a highly oriented
and crystalline structure. Fibroin has a low
proportion of amino acids residues with large side
84
chains in silk. It is a macromolecular protein of 300450kDa. The reeling waste (grade A) contains a vast
amount of silk fibers which has fibroin protein. This
waste silk is used to recover the fibroin protein for the
production of bio materials. Results suggest that the
fibroin is a valuable protein in production of
biomaterials. Silk reeling waste can be suitably
modified to convert into useful biomaterials such as
film, gel, powder and scaffold etc.

Different varieties of silks like Muga, Eri, Tussar
and their wastes may be used for making
biomaterials.

Advanced techniques such as X-Ray diffraction,
FTIR, Thermal Studies etc., may be used to
examine the behaviours of these biomaterials.

Industrial wastes are of great concern to the society
as they cause environmental pollution by adding
toxic compounds and bad odor to the environment.
Chemical treatment to overcome such problems are
temporary and add to the pollution over space and
time. Hence a Biological intervention causing
effective microbe (EM) technology appears to be a
sustainable, environmentally friendly technology
benefiting the society.
Lactobacillus: produces lactic acid which acts as
strong sterilizing agent and helps to degrade
cellulose, pectin and other organic matters.
Yeast: produces some of the antibiotics and other
useful substances.
Photosynthetic bacteria: The photosynthetic or
phototropic bacteria are a group of independent, self
supporting microbes.
The wastewater from the winery contained a number
of winemaking chemicals and sediment and residues
from cleaning out ferment tanks and barrels. The
process for treating this acidic waste water, was

The determination of fat in dairy effluent by
Werner–Schmid method: A portion of the sample is
digested with hydrochloric acid, and after cooling, the
fat is extracted using a mixture of diethyl ether and
light petroleum or alcohol. The solvent is then
removed by evaporation, and the amount of fat
remaining is determined by weighing.
Protein estimation by Lowry’s Method: The
phenolic group of tyrosine and trytophan residues (
amino acid) in a protein will produce a blue purple
color complex , with maximum absorption in the
region of 660 nm wavelength, with Folin- Ciocalteau
reagent which consists of sodium tungstate
molybdate and phosphate. Thus the intensity of color
depends on the amount of these aromatic amino
acids present and will thus vary for different proteins
Determination of BOD level of waste water : The
biochemical O2 demand (BOD) is the amount of O2
required by bacteria which stabilizing decomposable
organic matter under aerobic conditions.
Determination of COD levels: COD test is widely
used for measuring the pollutional strength of
wastewaters. All organic compounds with few
exceptions can be oxidized to CO2 and water by the
action of strong oxidizing agents regardless of
biological assimilability of the substances.

Introduction:
Vermicomposting has intrinsic benifits. Soil gets good
nutrients through an organic means of agriculture.
87
Vermicomposting is a simple biotechnological
process of composting, in which certain species of
earthworms are used to enhance the process of
waste conversion and produce a better end product.
Vermicomposting differs from composting in several
ways. It is a mesophilic process, utilizing
microorganisms and earthworms which are active at
10-32°C. The process is faster than composting;
because the material is passes through the gut of the
earthworm and a significant transformation takes
place, whereby the resulting earthworm castings
(worm manure) are rich in microbial activity and plant
growth regulators. In short, earthworms, through a
type of biological alchemy, are capable of
transforming garbage into usable product.
Objectives:

Laboratory analysis of the compost to assess the
micronutrients.

Application of compost on field and performance
evaluation of crop.
Methodology:
Study plots were prepared. Construction of
Vermicompost unit. Collection of waste from the
Hostel and campus, Releasing earthworms to the
vermipits. Sowing tomato seeds in the filed. Applying
vermicompost and chemical fertilizer in the study
plats. Soil Chemical Analysis is carried out to
determine the required parameters.
Compare to plot with chemical fertilizers, plot
vermicompost has yielded more in terms of product
and biomass. Before the application of the
vermicompost, organic carbon in the soil measured
was 9.38% and after the addition it was increased to
12.3%. Vermicompost contain nutrients in forms that
are taken up by the plants readily, such as nitrates,
exchangeable phosphorus and soluble potassium.
Vermicomposts promote favorable soil properties
such as efficient aeration, easy root penetration and
improved water holding capacity.

Provision of a sustainable environment in the soil
by amending with good quality organic soil
additives enhances the water holding capacity
and nutrients supplying capacity of soil and also
the development of resistance in plants to pests
and diseases.

By reducing the time of humification process and
by evolving the methods to minimize the loss of
nutrients during the course of decomposition, the
fantasy becomes fact.

Introduction:
Biofiltration is a simple low cost pollution control
technology used for the treatment of industrial
effluent using living materials to capture and
biologically degrade the process pollutants. A biofilter
is a batch depth filter comprising of simple bed of
organic matter or living systems arranged in a series
of layers. Biofilters are easy to construct and operate.
Biofiltration units can be designed to physically fit into
any industrial setting. They can also be designed
with stacked beds to minimize the space
requirements and multiple units can be run in
parallel, different media, microbes and operating
conditions can be used to design a biofilter system
depending on the mode of operation.
Objective:

To obtain industrial effluent which could be used
to understand its properties and the challenges
its poses to the environment.
Methodology:
Screening of biological material having filtering or
degradation potential. Selection of sand, coconut
fibers, water hyacinth roots and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa immobilized in sodium alginate as filter
beds to be used in construction of the main filter
unit.. Pre-processing of Sand was done by acid-base
treatment followed by wash with water. Coconut
fibers were pre-processed by cutting the fibers into
small fragments and washing with water and drying
it. Pre-processing of Water Hyacinth Roots was done
by selecting fresh fibrous roots and cleaning with
water to remove dirt particles. Initially, filtration
analysis was done in 50ml. Analytical test: Turbidity
test, total dissolved substance (TDS), microbial
count, and dye reduction are then carried out.
In the purification of the industrial effluent, significant
drop in color as well as in odor was seen when
biofilter was used to filter the industrial effluent. The
solids that are dissolved in water are termed as total
dissolved solids. The considerable reduction in the
concentration of dye by biofilter shows its potent
application in many microbiology labs and various
other life science related labs. Colorless, odorless
water was obtained when the dye was filtered using
biofilter. n the first place this technology can be used
up by industries to meet up their effluent challenges
by tailoring an appropriate unit. Biofilters are very
well useful to reduce contaminants from the effluent
without causing any pollution. This technology can be
used even in rural areas; where the agricultural lands
are constantly exposed to industrial effluent.
extract and flavonoid fraction was subjected to
antioxidant studies using DPPH Assay, Scavenging
of ABTS Radical and Estimation of Total Phenol
Content. The hepatoprotective activity was screened
using CCl4 Induced Hepatic Injury Model.
Scope and future work:
More attention can also be given on the constitution
of the filter unit on a larger scale which would enable
better filtering capacity, filtering larger volumes of
effluent at a stretch and easy maintenance Recycling
and stability and the filter beds hold a key for
successful application of any biofilter and these
parameters must be standardized accordingly.
The extent of hepatic damage is assessed by the
elevated level of biochemical parameters which is
attributed to the generation of trichloromethyl free
radical during metabolism by hepatic microsomes

Introduction:
Liver disease is still a worldwide health problem. In
the view of severe undesirable side effects of
synthetic agents, there is growing focus to follow
systematic research methodology and to evaluate
scientific basis for the traditional herbal medicines
that are claimed to possess hepatoprotective activity.
Recent research revealed that treatment with
multiple antioxidants for people with chronic HCV
was well tolerated and has a therapeutic benefit for
hepatic inflammation and liver cell death. Therefore,
antioxidant therapy can reduce liver inflammation
and cell death. The study indicates that antioxidant
therapy may have a role in slowing disease
progression to cirrhosis.
Objective:

To identify a cost effective safe plant based drug
for hepatitis.
Methodology:
The bark of Butea superba was collected from the
Western Ghats range of shimoga. About 250 gram of
powdered material was defatted by subjecting to
soxhlation using Petroleum ether as the solvent for
about 48 hours. The marc was re-extracted with
Ethanol which gave a reddish residue. The crude
drugs obtained were filtered and were subjected to
distillation process for removing the solvents and
later concentrated in vacuum under reduced
pressure using rotary flash evaporator and dried in

Introduction
Cellular is one of the fastest growing and most
demanding telecommunication applications. There
are various types of services offered by GSM among
which SMS is fast growing and widely spreading. The
keypad based user interface of mobiles makes typing
messages inconvenient and also undesirable during
emergency situations. Even though mobiles are often
built with durability in mind, many are not resistant to
contaminants such as water, dirt, oil and grease.
Hence, a new system based on Touch Screen is
used to send SMS. The proposed system is user
friendly, time efficient and in particular affordable
than any other high end mobiles.
Methodology:
Block diagram of the system
The system includes four basic components: A 4wire resistive touch screen (TS), touch screen
controller which is a PSoC device CY8C27443,
PIC18F458 microcontroller and GSM modem with a
SIM card. Remaining components are MAX232,
RS232 cable and LCD. The CY8C27443 TS
controller is programmed using Embedded C in PsoC
IDE. Whenever the touch screen is pressed, the X
and Y co-ordinates are sent to the CY8C27443 which
processes them and determines the option selected.
A 16x2 LCD is connected to the microcontroller, on
which the names and the messages selected by the
user will get displayed. Finally, to send the message
the user should select the “Send” option on the touch
screen.
The Touch Screen based system that was developed
can be used to send SMS to the concerned person in
real time environment. It is cost effective and time
efficient in its operation during emergency.

Introduction
Introduction:
Looking at the thriving mobile phone market led to
the idea of combining it with various needs of the
common man as a whole. One is used to paying for
stuff at the actual outlets, then the internet and now
m-commerce has taken us to a new level of ease. It’s
so much easier to use that little device to talk, text
and at the same time pay for all the facilities you use
without the need to actually go to that particular
place. Hence a system that includes all of these and
makes life a charm with technology being an
indispensable coin of trade is introduced.
Movies constitute a large portion of the entertainment
industry. Currently several websites host videos and
provide users with the facility to browse and watch
online. Therefore, automatic genre classification of
movies is an important task and with the trends in
technology, likely to become far more relevant in
near future.
Objective:

The consideration of security that plays a major
role in the networking terra firma.
Methodology:
Block Diagram of the Model.
Due to commercial nature of movie productions,
movies are always preceded by previews and
promotional videos. From an information point of
view, previews contain adequate context for genre
classification. As mentioned movie directors often
follow general rules pertaining to the film genre.
Since previws are made from actual movies, these
rules are reflected in them as well.
More and more home videos are being generated
with the ever growing popularity of digital camers and
comcorders. For many home videos, a photo
rendering, whether capturing a moment or a scene
within the video, provides a complementary
representation to the video.
Video mining can be defined as unsupervised
discovery of patterns in audio visual content. It is
based on detection of known patterns in audio-visual
content such as speaker-changes or high motion
followed by audience reaction etc.
This concept is widely used in developed countries
like the US, UK, Australia since both application and
services are outsourced to professional IT
companies to maintain transaction and data
securities. This concept is employed to avoid hacking
on wireless technology precisely mobile technology
as mobile phones are widely used for personal
applications.
Video mining is needed when the events we are
looking for in a segment of video content are not
known. This is often the case in the furvelance video
in which most of the videos consist of long stretches
of repetitive or “uninteresting” parts occasionally
interrupted by unusual or “interesting” parts, which
are too diverse to be anticipated in advance.
Video mining is useful for all kinds of genres that
spam the gamut from highly produced, such as news
video, to spontaneous but constrained such as sports
video and further to completely spontaneous, such
as surveillance video.
Methodology:

Further enhancement provides a feasible
registration process via the internet similar to an
email registration.
The whole project is devided into three modules
namely : 1. Authentication module 2. Histogram
module 3. Audio analysis module.

For a larger application this could further be
enhanced by employing a stronger DBMS like

Introduction
In today’s fast growing Internet, traffic conditions
changes and failures occur at some parts of the
network from time-to time, in unpredictable manner.
Therefore, there is a need for an algorithm to
manage traffic flows and deliver packets from
sources to the destination in a reasonable time. The
process of transmitting packets from its source nodes
to its destination node d in a network is called
routing. Q-Routing was able to route packets more
efficiently at higher network loads than the static
Shortest Path algorithm. It is also found that QRouting is more stable than a straightforward
implementation of the distributed Bellman-Ford
algorithm, using queue length as metric. A Q-Routing
algorithm allows a network to continuously adapt to
congestion node failure, or link failure by choosing
routes that require the least delivery time or shortest
distance. When a route becomes congested or fails,
Q-routing learns to avoid that route and uses an
alternate optimal path.
Objectives:

Algorithm which have a control over congestion.

Algorithm which provides better packet deliver
ratio.
Methodology:
The Routing Manager and Dispatcher are present at
each node. The Routing manager is responsible for
routing table calculations. The Dispatcher takes care
of dispatching of aglets for supporting the routing
operation and packet generation. Packet Generator
generates the packet at some fixed rate.
Result and Conclusion
From the graphs it is seen that the delivery time
required to reach the destination for 5 packets, 20
packets and 300 packets are studied. Q-routing also
takes care of the failed node or congestion after
every packet transfer hence the number of drop
packets are less in case of Q-routing. Which leads to
have better Packet delivery ratio in case of Q-routing
compare to Bellman Ford algorithm.

Extending Q-Routing in mobile Ad-hoc networks.


making use of the backward direction of
exploration.

Introduction
In these days, the universal electronic connectivity, of
viruses and hackers, of electronic eavesdropping and
electronic fraud, there is indeed no time at which
security does not matter. First, the explosive growth
in computer systems and their interconnections via
networks has increased the dependence of both
organizations and individuals on the information
stored and communicated using these systems. This,
in turn, has led to a heightened awareness of the
need to protect data and resources from disclosure,
to guarantee the authenticity of data and messages,
and to protect systems from network-based attacks.
Second, the disciplines of cryptography and network
security have matured, leading to the development of
practical, readily available applications to enforce
network security.

processes. The crossing-over and mutation
processes, used with keys, are used to scramble the
input file. After the second cross-over process, the
file will be completely encrypted. The encrypted file is
transmitted across the network to the recipient. In the
recipient’s side, the initial keys have to be provided
which must be same as that provided by the sender
for the successful decryption. The same processes
are performed at the receiver side in the reverse
order to get the decrypted file which will be same as
that of the original file.

Introduction
The digital image is easy to edit, modify and exploit
and at the same time, image editing programs are
becoming more powerful so that even an amateur
can maliciously modify digital images and create
perfect forgeries without leaving any trace on the
original image. So there is a need of authenticity.
Authentication is said to be “Exact” if the system
detects the slightest changes. Some applications do
not need exact authentication and only require some
selective places in the work to be authenticated,
which is known as “Selective” authentication.
Previous systems were using spatial domain and
some
used
messages
digest
for
fragile
watermarking. Wavelet coefficient technique and
signature based techniques were used in semi-fragile
watermarking.
Objectives:

To authenticate and protect the integrity of digital
images.

To identify the incidental and intentional attacks
on digital images.
Methodology:
The user interface of Dataguard is allows user to
select the type (Text/Image) of the file and accepts
the filename. The use of genetic algorithm for the
encryption is an efficient technique in the field of
cryptography. The key generation technique used in
Dataguard tries to achieve one-time padding since a
large number of keys are generated. Hence it is
difficult for the cryptanalyst to get back the original
message.

Dataguard can be made to work also for audio
and video files with further enhancement.

The complexity of the algorithm can be increased
by increasing the number of iterations of
crossover and mutations.
There are two types of Content Authentication
System. Exact Authentication – is achieved through
fragile watermarking. In this scheme, the security
requirement is to reject any message that has been
altered to the slightest degree. A signature is
93
extracted from each block of the image and is
inserted in that block. Extraction of this signature and
appropriate parameters for computation are analyzed
in this project. The system comprises of Embedder
and Authenticator modules.
Selective Authentication - is achieved through Semifragile watermarking. The proposed technique is
based on eigen values and eigen vectors of real
symmetric matrix generated by the pair of four pixels.
A signature bit for detecting malicious tampering of
an image is generated using domainant eigen vector.
The dominant eigen value can reduce the sensitivity
of quantization based watermarking. Because of the
orthogonality property of real symmetric matrix, its
possible to combine both superiority of watermarkbased
and
signature-based
semi-fragile
watermarking technology for image authentication in
this method to improve the robustness against
malicious tampering and also resist high quality
JPEG compression processing.
The extraction function (Authenticator) recovers the
fragile watermark information from the received
watermarked data. The fragile watermarking
algorithm shows a very high data payload to fidelity
trade-off when compared to existing watermarking
algorithms. It is a logical consequence since at most
two bits are flipped when embedding number of bits
equal to log (blocksize). It provides very high level of
security. In order to improve the detection of
malicious tampering of images, it is necessary to
decrease the fragility of hidden watermarks, even for
digital images which have been distorted incidentally.
Semi-fragile watermarking designed is fragile to
intentional attacks and robust to incidental attacks.
The future work should focus on recovery and a
design of “invertible” watermarking. Semi-fragile
system based on EVRSM should be enhanced to be
robust against geometrical attacks and distortions.

Introduction:
Integrated architectures in the automotive and
avionic domain promise improved resource utilization
and enable a better coordination of application
subsystems compared to federated systems. In order
to support a seamless system integration without
unintended side effects in such an integrated
architecture, it is important to ensure that the
software components do not interfere through the
use of these shared resources. For this reason, the
DECOS
integrated
architecture
encapsulates
application subsystems and their constituting
software components. Due to encapsulation, the
temporal properties of messages sent by a software
component are independent from the behavior of
other software components, in particular from those
within other application subsystems

network is an effective foundation for establishing
multiple VNs, each tailored to a respective
application subsystem via its control paradigm (event
message versus state messages) and its temporal
properties
(for
example,
bandwidth).
The
experimental assessment has yielded evidence that
the realized VNs exhibit predefined temporal
properties for the messages transmitted by a job,
independent of the transmission behavior of other
jobs and other application subsystems. In particular,
rigid temporal partitioning is achievable while at the
same time meeting the performance requirements
imposed by present-day automotive applications and
those envisioned for the future (for example, X-bywire). These results are particularly important in the
context of the increasing complexity of embedded
systems. System architects become forced to follow
divide-and-conquer strategies that permit a reduction
of the mental effort for developing and understanding
a large system by partitioning the system into smaller
subsystems that can be developed and analyzed in
isolation.

Introduction:
The Power Sector in the country sustains a loss of
over 25-30% because of pilferage of electricity, which
is a major cause of concern to all of us. The weakest
cog in the wheel is the human element involved in
the reading of the meters and also the easy
accessibility of the meters to the customers, a large
number of whom tamper with it. A solution to this
ever burgeoning problem would be to eliminate the
human element involved on the part of meter
reading. This can be done with a set of technologies
called AMR (Automated Meter Reading) or RMR
(Remote Meter Reading). AMR (Automatic Meter
Reading) is a technology gives utilities the ability to
obtain meter-reading values remotely without having
to physically visit and manually read the customer's
electric meter. AMR allows us to collect an actual
meter reading without entering your property to read
your meter, giving customers better control of their
use of electric energy, gas usage, or water
consumption. The reading on your meter is
transmitted through various transmission rmats and
protocols like GPRS, RF, RS 485, PLC (Power Line
Carrier).

Introduction
The main aim of this project is to make the ATM
machine accessible by everyone with enhanced
security. ATM is an acronym for Automated Teller
Machine, a machine at a bank branch or other
location which enables a customer to perform basic
banking activities even when the bank is closed.
ATM provides self-service banking machine that
connects to a host computer through a network. The
major requirement is to develop a tool that helps the
user to access the ATM more securely. The solution
to the problem is to use biometric technology as
security. Biometrics consists of automated methods
of recognizing a person based on unique physical
characteristic. Among many biometric technologies
such as person's fingerprint, iris, voice pattern or
even facial pattern, person’s finger print is most
effective due to low cost and high accuracy. So in
this ATM system fingerprint technique is used
instead of CARD and PIN.
Objectives:

To provide most effective and low cost ATM
machine.

To provide high accuracy.

To enable uneducated people to access ATM
without any difficulty of remembering passwords.
Methodology:
Technology Used: Touch screen and finger print
reader technology used.
Meter reading to accounting units through GSM
modem. Reading, billing at corresponding accounting
units. Reading and billing data transferred to Remote
station (PC) as well. Monitoring at Central Control
Room. Billing Application at Remote station (PC).

Softwares Used: Embedded C, Visual Basics.
The system is developed using an object oriented
approach class testing is done at unit level and
functional testing at system level. The use of GSM in
this particular system provides numerous advantages
over methods that have been previously used data
transmission is charged at standard sms rates, thus
the charges are not based on the duration of data
transmission. The cost efficient transmission of
reading ensures that power consumption values can
be transmitted more frequently to remote station.
This application provides the accessing of ATM in all
time at any ATM centre more securely with accuracy
and consistency. The application is basically built
using Visual Basic 6 with MS-Access. The developed
application works on a Windows environment with
the application installed on a Windows machine.

transmitted wirelessly over weekends and evenings
from equipment they install on the front of the ATM
The equipment used to capture your ATM card
number and PIN is cleverly disguised to look like
normal ATM equipment. A "skimmer" is mounted to
the front of the normal ATM card slot that reads the
ATM card number and transmits it to the criminals
sitting in a nearby car.
At the same time, a wireless camera is disguised to
look like a leaflet holder and is mounted in a position
to view ATM PIN entries.
The thieves copy the cards and use the PIN numbers
to withdraw thousands from many accounts in a very
short time directly from the bank ATM.
The solution to the problem is to use biometric
technology as security.

Patients with chronic illnesses that require constant
tracking by doctors will be able to submit
measurement results (such as blood pressure, body
weight, etc.) using electronic forms. Facilities will also
be provided for the preliminary diagnosis of patients.
Patients will be able to submit queries to doctors
using their mobile phone. This will be able to arrange
visits with doctors. The medical personnel will be
able to look after their patients without the need of
arranging visits to the hospital.
This software also provides an information resource
to the medical marketing personnel, to get
information about the medicines and about the
hospitals and doctors details, through their mobile.
This Telemedicine application is developed with
WML (Wireless Markup Language) and WAP
(Wireless Application protocol). Since the usage of
the constrained devices like mobiles are increasing,
this project aims to cater to the mobile users of this
application.
The following block diagram depicts the architecture
design and the interaction between a mobile client
and web server via a WAP gateway.
Introduction
Telemedicine employs information technology,
through the judicious use of computers, related
softwares (WML), and telecommunications systems
comprising of compatible telephone lines,contrained
devices (mobiles), fibre-optic cables, WAP etc., to
provide premium quality health care.
Distance is no barrier to better diagnosis and
management of a patient with this technology. In
other terms, it is remote telemetric health care.
Telemedicine is still largely experimental though this
situation is expected to change very soon with the
technology moving out of the desktops of the
researchers / developers on to the desktops of the
doctors and his patients and other potential users.
Objective
To demonstrate the feasibility of the different
formulations and services that may be offered by
telemedicine to the mobile clients. Further the aim is
to automate the contacts between doctors and
patients and between doctors and medical marketing
personnel.
Conclusion
Telemedicine is a high-tech solution to the universal
problem of access to health care. Telemedicine

wireless transmitters each transmitter capable of
transmitting a pulse of electromagnetic energy on a
selected one of a group of predetermined
frequencies. Each frequency selected on which to
transmit corresponds to one of a group of suggested
responses to a given stimulus. The polling system
includes a receiver for receiving the transmitted
pulses and electronic counters for tallying the
number of pulses received on each of the selected
frequencies. An electronic display presents the
results of the tallying for observation by the audience

Introduction:
A robot is a virtual or mechanical artificial agent.
Robots tend to do some or all of the following: move
around, operate a mechanical limb, sense and
manipulate their environment, and exhibit intelligent
behaviour, especially behaviour which mimics
humans or other animals. They are widely used for
various scientific purposes and they also form an
integral part of many industries. The project attempts
to control the movements of a robot using concepts
of embedded systems.
objective:

Common system to obtain binary file from design
To design a joystick which can control robots
movements using wireless technology just by
tilting it.
Methodology:
99
Initially the joystick is tilted to control the movement
of the robot. SPI interface is enabled and is made
master. The X, Y, Z axes are enabled in the
accelerometer and their values are available to the
external world through SPI interface. These values
are compared with predetermined threshold values
and based on that commands for forward, reverse,
right, left and stop are sent to the modulator.
In the modulator the frequency is changed to carrier
frequency by HT12E encoder and transmitted using
RF 433MHz transmitter and PCB antenna. On the
robot microcontroller, Port A, Port C are initialised as
output ports and Port D as input port.
The decoder checks its address thrice for valid
transmission and then data is sent to Port D of the
ATmega32. If valid transmission takes place then,
LED on the robot goes high. This data from Port D is
sent to Port C through registers which is given to the
motor drivers and hence the robot moves
accordingly.
and implement a sensor network which can be
deployed to monitor vital properties like temperature,
relative humidity and then report them through a
routing tree to a base station for further analysis. As
with all other sensor networks, the pressing issue
would be to minimize communication between the
nodes. Module has an embedded processor, a flash
memory, a radio and one or more sensors.
Traditional efforts at monitoring environmental
parameters such as soil moisture, temperature and
humidity have seen remote sensing and personnel
using hand-held instrumentation as the main
methods of data collecting.
Objectives:

To set up a reactive sensor network to monitor
spatial variation in environmental parameters like
temperature and relative humidity over time.
Methodology:
An attempt has been made in this project to study
and comprehend aspects of embedded systems. The
joystick is able to control the movements of a robot
without having any physical connection with it using
wireless technology. The robot is given directions
regarding its movements just by tilting the joystick.
This is to a large extent simplifies control of the robot.

Introduction
Auto dialing system is designed to acknowledge a
particular person about the accidents taking place at
home by giving call to that person. Here we have
used GSM service to acknowledge a particular
person. The user activates the system just by
switching ON the power supply. Once the auto dialer
unit is activated and when the fire, Gas leakage,
theft, unauthorized opening of door takes place it is
detected by the sensor and this control signal is
given to the control unit. The microcontroller unit is
activating the GSM mobile. The auto-dialer unit gives
the warning information to the particular person
mobile.
Methodology:
The block diagram of the robot is given below.
The prototype can be employed in military ground
surveillance in the places like- naxal threatened area,
Once the auto dialer is activated IR transmitter
transmits IR rays continuously and IR receiver
senses the IR rays and converts it into electrical
signal until and unless there is no interruption. On
receiving the signal, microcontroller executes the
program and drives the mobile to dial. A switch is
used to illustrate the opening of door. To drive any
output device to provide the required output voltage
for their working. When the control signal comes from

a particular circuit corresponding button is pressed
and call goes to particular number assigned to it.
In this project three problems concerned with safety
and security are considered-Fire occurrence, theft
and unauthorized opening of doors. For each of
these cases when mishap occurs information goes to
the person/office whose numbers are stored in the
mobile phone kept in the house via GSM to the
individual care taking persons.
a Signal Data Converter. Buffer is used for isolation
of the PC from the rest of the circuit. Strength of the
RF signals present in the surroundings is displayed
on the monitor of the PC.
In addition to displaying the signal strength on the PC
screen this system will also drive the rotors of the
antennae so as to adjust their position to maximum
signal strength. Output of the buffer is applied to the
driver stage which is responsible for driving
additional device drivers. Additional device drivers
will drive the rotors of the antennae.

Introduction:
Auto Tapping System using RF Spectrum Analyzer is
a perfect tool for easing the job of such security
agencies. Basically this project is an automatic
system, which is designed to monitor the chosen
area for an unauthorized RF Spectrum utilization. So
typically, the project will be set to scan mode round
the clock, and when it intercepts an unauthorized RF
activity in that area, it stops scanning and alerts the
operator to keep track of the communication it has
detected. Further the project also starts recording the
communication with the aid of a tape recorder so that
one can decode that communication and retrieve a
meaningful information about the anti-social
organizations.
Objective:
A step towards easing out the job for the RF
monitoring authority involved in such RF scanning &
monitoring projects.
Methodology:
The circuit consists of 2 antennae for picking up RF
signals. Each antenna is connected to a RF receiver.
Here the signals picked up by the antenna are
amplified and detected. Outputs of the RF receiver
are fed to respective Band Pass Filters for filtering
out the unwanted signals.
Filtered output from each band pass filter is
multiplexed into a single stream signal using an
encoder. Analog output of the encoder is converted
to digital data using an A/D converter. Digitized data
is passed on to the I/O interfacing card of the PC via
102
RF RECEIVER :
1) RF RECEIVER UNIT
2) DIGITAIZER UNIT
The VHF receiver used for demonstrating the
functioning of the project. As seen there in the above
block diagram, the output of the VHF / RF receiver
unit is connected to the digitizer system thorough an
opto-coupler circuit. This is a safe end noise free
method of coupling of VHF receiver to the digitizer.
Job of the opto-coupler is to convert the output from
the RF / VHF receiver to light, and then transfer them
to the digitizer unit. The significance of this optocoupler is that, all electrical & other RF noise
possible present in the RF / vhf receiver are filtered
out. There by generating only variable dc output. As
the strength of the vhf / RF Receiver depends upon
various factors like strength of the RF source,
amplitude of the data present in that and also other
factors like type of the antenna used etc., and can
approximate the signal to suitable scale, so that that
received signal can be represented on a display
device like PC / CRO.
In real time application, the project is configured to
take the inputs from a wide band commercial
receiver, but as the commercial wide band receivers
cost in terms of lakhs.
Instrumentation amplifer block : The output of
opto-coupler will be very feeble to drive any further
sections. So some kind of amplification is needed
before utilizing that sensed signals. This amplification
is done using reliable amplifier circuit called
Instrumentation Amplifier. This Amplifier, as name
implies, is specially used in Instrumentation field to
amplifies the weak sensed field signals from various
sensors spread all over the area.
A.D.C : The conversion of Analogue signals received
from Instrumentation Amplifier Block is done using
this A.D.C block. The Analogue-To-Digital Converter
block converts any inputted signals, which are in
analogue form, into digital form. This is necessary as
computer understands digital form data and
processes them very quickly. The output of A.D.C is
given to I/O Interface block, through Buffer stage, to
pass the signals from A.D.C to Computer.
Micro-Controller Unit: The project employs 89C51
microcontroller for the data conversion purpose. This
chip is from ATMEL Corporation, and follows 8051
architecture of Intel Corporation. The advantage of
this IC is that, it has onboard user accessible 4 K
EEPROM, so that one can burn the program on this
chip directly. This eliminates the usage of an external
EEPROM memory chip. Here the job of the
Microcontroller is to provide connectivity between the
ADC and PC. This is essential to convert the parallel
data generated by the ADC 0809 to PC / Serial
Compatible data. With the aid of this microcontroller,
this objective is achieved.
Advantages:

Fully automatic system to detect, intercept & alert
the operator about the potential illegal radio
frequency communication.

Cost effective as it is based on conventional PC,
there by eliminating the special hardware.

Gives the graphical representation of the user
interface, thus making simpler to use.

Introduction
Habitat loss and fragmentation is threatening the
survival of species across the world. Combine this
with unsustainable illegal poaching, and much of
India's wildlife, including elephants, is under threat.
The replacement of forest habitat with agriculture has
led to the emergence of conflict between elephants
and humans. As their habitat becomes fragmented
and degraded, elephants come into more frequent
contact with both domestic and commercial
plantations and farms. Annually elephants have been
reported to damage millions of rupees worth of
agricultural crops and hundreds of people are killed.
This can then also lead to the killing of hundreds of
elephants in retaliation to this conflict.
Adding to this, domestic crop can also be more
palatable to elephants than their wild forage, leading
them to raid crops, even when they have other
alternatives.Damaging crops, and sometimes injuring
people, many elephants have been killed in
retaliation.
Objective:
To design an effective Elephant Intrusion Alarm
System that can help both the farmers and the
elephants as well.
The proposed project will have the following features.

Low power consumption.
Conclusion:

An alarm system to ward off intruding elephants
The main aim of this project is to prevent anti- social
activities through walky-talkies, Basically this project
is an automatic system, which is designed to monitor
the chosen area for an unauthorized RF Spectrum
utilization. The further developments on the project
may make it further compact.

Farmer’s Home Setup: The microcontroller in the
farmer’s home will be continuously monitoring its
ports data to which RF receiver is connected. Upon
receiving the valid data it turns on the buzzer system
to alarm the farmer about the intrusion of wild animal
in his field.
Currently the people who have suffered from the wild
life intrusions have gone for electric fencing which
has resulted in the threat for intruded wild life. Our
project clearly overcomes this disadvantage and with
certain modifications can be implemented in wild life
intrusion affected regions.

Introduction
Proper Utilization of electrical power is where the
terminals of the energy meters are connected to the
respective terminals of the supply wires and the
loads. The pilferage of power is done by the
consumers where the terminals of load are left open;
the loads are directly tapped to the supply terminal.
This type of pilferage will benefit the consumers
since they will escape from paying the electricity bill.
About 15-20% energy losses during transmission
and distribution. Even some of the consumers are
contributing for this energy crisis by power theft,
which is affecting the economy of our country.

Introduction
Initially the system will check the parking area, if
there are any free slots, then according to the prority
it will display the free space number on the LCD, so
that the next user, who wants to park the vehicle, has
to insert the smart card and he has to park his
vehicle at the displayed space number, then the
system will check again and displays the free space
number to be parked next or else it indicates if the
there is no space by displaying the space is full on
the LCD display, so that the user can go to other
parking area. In this smart card based auto parking
system we have used two stepper motors. These
motors are controlled by the micro controller through
the stepper motor driver circuit. Hence two stepper
motor are driven by two stepper motor drivers. First
motor is used to lift the trolley up and down through
successive floors. Second motor is used to park the
car to the particular place where the free place is
available in a perticular floor. The microcontroller will
read the card, and it assigns the prestored code to

Introduction
This paper studies the ATM based on fingerprint
encryption/authentication scheme for banking
systems. In this scheme, the system authenticates
each user by authenticating biometrics (fingerprint).
The proposed scheme is fast and secure.
A Bio metric Authenticated Automated Teller
Machine (ATM) is a computerized device that
provides the customers of a financial institution with
access to financial transactions in a public space
without the need for a human clerk or bank teller. On
most modern ATMs, the customer is identified by
ATM:
All the communication between the ATM and the
server is done by the main microcontroller. The main
microcontroller connects to the server using the RX
and TX pins. The main microcontroller also
controllers all the on board devices of the ATM
machine directly or indirectly. The direct device that
is controlled by the microcontroller is the key pad
(4x4). The indirect devices controlled by the ATM are
the display, fingerprint scanner, money tending
machine, dot matrix printer. The indirectly controlled
devices are controlled through serial and parallel
communication through microcontrollers. The display
is controlled through 2 ports and finger print scanner
109
is controlled through 1 port. The money tending
machine and the receipt printer is controlled serially.
The display controller is also a 89s52 microcontroller
it receives commands from the master controller and
send the data’s to be displayed on the CRT serially
to the AVR Atmega 8 display controller. The display
controller holds all the data’s that has to be displayed
on the CRT.
The finger print scanner SM630 is used to scan the
used finger for authentication the finger print receiver
the command from the master regarding its nature of
operation. The commands given to the FPS are hex
command the FPS controller stores all the hex
commands necessary to activate the FPS. The FPS
communicates serially so the hex commands are
sent serially to the FPS by the FPS controller. The
out put of the FPS is directly sent to the server for
verification.
The receipt printer and the money tending machine
are controller by there respective controllers. The dot
matrix printer works when we feed it with serial data
by the microcontroller. The money tending machine
is determined by the number of notes to be tended.
The command to tend money is given by the receipt
printing microcontroller.
Conclusion:
Through this independent study, we have come to
develop a greater appreciation for real-world
engineering. By going through the initial stages of the
product development cycle-from initial design
concept to a working prototype-we have come to
realize that engineering is more about cost/benefit
analysis.
This project has also allowed us to use what we have
learned in the classroom and to apply it to a practical
application.
Security to the data/information is the need of the
hour. In Biometric authenticated ATM, we are
providing an advanced, reliable and a very secure
technology to provide security to the ATM. For this
we are using fingerprint of the user as the pass code
to access any information required for him/her. A
user will be allowed to access the required
information and perform the required operation only
after his fingerprint is authenticated by the server.
Fingerprint of a person being very unique identity, it
prevents any unauthorized access to users’ data.
With this, the purpose of providing security to the
system by restricting any unauthorized access to the
system is achieved to a great extent. Thus the
technology we are using here provides a high degree
of security to the system thus fulfilling the whole
intention of the project with great reliability.

Complex bio-chemical reactions take place within a
living being’s cell consisting of cytoplasm, nucleus,
nucleons etc. From quantum theory of Physics
energy radiations are emitted from an atom when an
electron gets excited from lower energy level to
higher energy level and then jumps back to lower
energy level due to un-stability .This excitation of
electron happens during chemical reaction. Same
thing happens within a living being’s cell emitting
radiations. Hence each cell is considered as
miniature radiator.
The amount of energy liberated from the radiations is
dependent on parameters like temperature, pressure,
Ph – value, humidity etc within a cell. These
parameters in-turn depend on mental status and
emotions of living beings.
The bio-electric field is exploited to make out the
changes in the complex functioning in living beings

Methodology and Conclusion:
Block Diagram Description
In manual operation the mechanical valves are
operated at different time intervals at different areas.
But this existing system has got some draw backs
like improper speed regulation, improper timings etc.
Because of these drawbacks the wastage of water
increases which decreases the efficiency of water
supply department.
The system shown here is a microcontroller based
solenoid operated valves system which can
effectively control the water supply system. The
microcontroller is programmed to operate the
solenoids at particular time interval at particular
areas. As per the requirement the main pump
operates and a microcontroller even turns on the
particular area solenoid also. The water now flows
through solenoid and supplies the water to particular
area.
To improve the present system, the group developed
a electronic controlled operation, which uses
microcontroller-89S52 as a controlling device and
solenoids as mechanical valves. For main pump all
the sub pipe lines of different areas are connected
through solenoid valves. Microcontroller will send the
controlling signal at particular time operate solenoid
valves. The microcontroller is programmed and
modified through computer using manual and totally
mechanical system for the supply of water in the city.
Leakages in the pipe lines can be detected using
metallic mesh structures over the pipe lines. As the
leakages take place in any of the pipe line, this
makes a closed loop control for the mesh and it
provides a signal to control room. The water in the
main tank can be monitored with level indication
circuit.

The solenoid will be triggered by microcontroller and
the whole system operates at same concept through
microcontroller. The modifications to timed operation
and day requirement operations can be modified
through PC. The new programme has been entered
to microcontroller. As per the new programme
system operates at that schedule. For safety point of
view status indications are provided in each area to
indicate the working condition of particular solenoid.
The particular solenoid working has been displayed,
the workings of solenoids with programmed output
are scanned and the same solenoid should be
operated, failure to this gives an alarm indication.

Introduction
This system is designed to help the paralyzed person
who moves on a wheel chair. Instead of the
handicapped person moves the wheel chair by his
hand, the chair will automatically move to a particular
direction as the patient moves his eyes towards a
direction, with the help of Eye ball movement
detection sensor. The chair will also sense the
obstacles in front of it and gives a beep sound. An
electric wheelchair can be moved on controlling the
motors attached to wheel shaft by operating joystick
lever located by the hand. This requires great skill
and it is impossible for the paralyzed peoples.
Objective:
This project directs on the development of a robotic
wheelchair
system
based
on
infrared
occulography.The system allows the user to tell the
robot where to move and will carry out that
navigational task using common sensical constraints,
such as avoiding collision.
The principle of occulography has been used in the
principle of eye ball sensor. Oculography is a method
of recording of eye movement and eye position. The
eye position is recorded in terms of analog voltage
and then converted into digital form. This is then
given to microcontroller which makes the
corresponding decisions like to turn left, urn right and
move straight. These commands are then given to
stepper motor. Then stepper motor rotates as per the
command.
Master Controller: This part consists of
microcontroller and its associated circuits like power
supply circuit and reset circuit and its crystal interface
and I/O interface which monitors, controls and coordinates the tasks. The controller is all so
responsible for communicating with the card and
authenticates the card.
Eye ball Movement Sensor: This is used to sense
the movement of the eye ball’s direction and converts
it into digital data and transfers it to the Master
controller. (Straight Command, Left/Right Command,
Stop Command)
OptoCoupler with Stepper Driver Board: The need
of Optocoupler is to isolate the Interface Board form
the Stepper Motor to restrict any high voltage to the
Interface board.
Stepper Power Supply: The power module converts
the 120 V 60 Hz AC input from wall socket into 5V
DC to power up the Microcontroller, the LCD, the
Keypad and the two relay switches. This board
contains the power Supply for the stepper motor and
relay driver.
The Beeper: This takes a square wave signal from
the Microcontroller and produces a monotone sound
of specific frequency
Sensors for Artificial Intelligence: Sensors are
provided to achieve this task.
Result and conclusion:
The project is aimed towards developed a usable,
intermediate-cost assistive robotic wheelchair system
for disabled people. In this work, a system can be
used as a means of control allowing the
handicapped, especially those with only eyemotor
coordination, to live more independent lives.
Eye movements require minimum effort and direct
selection techniques, and this increase the response
time and the rate of information flow. Some of the
previous wheelchair robotics research are restricted
a particular location and in many areas of robotics,
environmental assumptions can be made that
simplify the navigation problem.

Introduction:
Electronic Nose (e-Nose) is a device used to detect
and recognize odors/vapors, i.e., a machine olfaction
device with an array of chemical sensors.
The most common use of the e-Nose is within the
food and drink industries. In addition, e-Nose can be
used in other areas such as petroleum qualitative
and quantitative analysis, detection of explosives,
classification and degradation studies of olive oils,
development in the field of odor detection for
environmental
applications,
quality
control
applications in the automotive industry, discrimination
between clean and contaminated cows' teats in a
milking system, cosmetic raw materials analysis, and
many other important areas such as the medical and
space fields.
The principle of e-Nose is that it uses an array of
sensors, whether in the form of different types of
polymers or via the use of metal oxide
semiconductors.
Objective:
The main objective of this project is:

To make use of a sensor to detect and recognize
the sample.

To develop database of recognition patterns for
various samples.

To test the ability of the electronic nose to
accurately classify unknown samples.

To discriminate between good and bad samples.

Figure : Block diagram of e-nose.
The sensing unit consists of the sensor circuitry
which includes fan and sensor. A fixed volume of
sample which is to be tested is taken in the test tube
which is kept in the sample holder and then the
sensor is made to sniff the sample. After sensing the
sample, the sensor unit is being blown with air in
order to remove the sensed odor from the sensing
chamber using a fan, this helps to improve response
time considerably.
The data acquisition and signal processing unit
consists of hold circuit and an analog to digital
converter (ADC). The hold circuit takes the sensed
output voltage from the sensor circuitry. This circuit
consists of two voltage followers and a charging /
discharging unit. This circuit holds the voltage for a
time that will be sufficient for ADC to process the
incoming analog signal. The ADC (0808CCN) is
being used to convert the incoming analog signal
from the hold circuit to the digital format which is then
fed to the computing unit for further computations.
The computing circuit consists of microcontroller
which is the heart of the whole circuitry which
performs the function of detection and adulteration of
the sample given. The microcontroller combines the
responses of the sensor, which becomes the input to
the data treatment. This data treatment includes the
intelligent
pattern
recognition
engine
for
classification, analysis and declaration.
Other circuits such as display circuit for displaying,
power supply circuitry for giving power to the different
units of the e-nose, etc., are used.
The e-nose
samples:

detects
the
following
1. Kerosene
2. Petrol
3. LPG
The e-nose also checks for the quality of the petrol.
Temperature Sensor: Thermistor is used as
temperature sensor. The output is used to control the
fan/AC.
The figure shown below is the working model of the
gadget.
Conclusion:
The e-nose was able to detect the odors of kerosene,
petrol and LPG. Using this property, the e-nose is
able to determine the quality of petrol. Hence, e-nose
developed was able to achieve the objectives set.
Scope of future work:
By changing the type of the sensor and some
modifications in the circuitry, e-nose can be used in
different

Introduction
A number of people suffer from various kinds of
physical disabilities. To help them cope with their
problem, many facilities are made available to them
like a person with a missing arm can use a prosthetic
115
arm, a person without a leg can survive with a set of
crutches and also a person who does not have both
legs or arms can make use of a wheelchair equipped
with a joystick. But no facilities are provided for
people who are paralyzed totally and are only
capable of speaking. Hence, implementing a voice
controlled wheelchair that is designed keeping in
mind that speech is the only way with which they can
overcome their disability.
The voice controlled wheelchair makes use of an
intelligent voice recognition system. This voice
recognition system, along with a micro-controller and
a set of motors control the speed and direction of the
wheelchair.
This system is capable of accepting a predefined set
of voice commands. Depending on the input
command, appropriate action is carried out to move
the wheelchair in the required direction.
The basic idea is taken from a voice controlled toycar, which has been implemented to automate a
wheelchair.
Objective
The aim of this project is to implement an application
using small vocabulary word recognition system. The
methodology adopted is based on grouping a
microcontroller with a speech recognition system for
isolated word from a dependent speaker. The
resulting design is used to control a wheel chair for a
handicapped person based on the vocal command. It
therefore involves the recognition of isolated words
from a limited vocabulary. The system is easy, not
bulky, with low power consumption and easy in
operation.
Methodology
Block Diagram:
An IC-HM2007 is used for this purpose, which when
interfaced an external 8KX8 SRAM (HM6264)
memory and a keypad, an intelligent speech
recognition system can be built. The processor
responds to a set of 4-8 commands which enables
the wheelchair to move in all the four directions.
Microcontroller: It accepts an input from speech
recognition system and processes it. The output is
then fed to the interfaced driver circuit to control the

A smart card, chip card, or integrated circuit(s) card
(ICC), is defined as any pocket-sized card with
embedded integrated circuits. Although there is a
diverse range of applications, there are two broad
categories of ICCs. Memory cards contain only nonvolatile memory storage components, and perhaps
some specific security logic. Microprocessor cards
contain memory and microprocessor components.

Introduction:
This project is an advanced system for Toll Gate
Automation & Toll Collection. Here this system is
designed to automatically display the number of
vehicle, check the currency, deduct the amount using
RF technology.
The main part of project is 8051 Microcontroller. The
microcontroller chip consists inbuilt EEPROM(flash)
memory, which is electrically erasable. The memory
can be read and written fast. The code for project is
written in this EEPROM memory, which consists
identification of 8 vehicles such as vehicle number
and currency.
Once the receiver detects any vehicle, it compares
the ID detected with stored ones in the code. If the ID
matches then appropriate amount will be detected
117
according to the code and the updated currency will
be displayed on LCD. If the ID does not match then
the motor will be activated by microcontroller and the
gate will be closed.
Objectives:
The main objective of this project is to simplify
activities at toll gate by using RF technology, to
decrease man power and to save time.
Methodology:
Receiver (RF ID Reader)
RF Transmitter Module
RF Rx Module used in remote control applications
where low cost and longer range is required. The
transmitter operates from a 1.5-12V supply, making it
ideal for battery-powered applications. The
transmitter employs a SAW-stabilized oscillator,
ensuring accurate frequency control for best range
performance. Output power and harmonic emissions
are easy to control, making FCC and ETSI
compliance easy.
OOK (On Off Keying) modulation is a binary form of
amplitude modulation. When a logical 0 (data line
Low) is being sent, the transmitter is off, fully
suppressing the carrier. In this state, the transmitter
current is very low, less than 1mA. When a logical 1
is being sent, the carrier is fully on. In this state, the
module current consumption is at its highest, about
11mA with a 3V power supply. OOK is the
modulation method of choice for remote control
applications where power consumption and cost are
the primary factors. Because OOK transmitters draw
no power when they transmit a 0, they exhibit
significantly better power consumption than FSK
transmitters. OOK data rate is limited by the start-up
time of the oscillator. High-Q oscillators which have
very stable center frequencies take longer to start-up
than low-Q oscillators. The start-up time of the
oscillator determines the maximum data rate that the
transmitter can send.
118
The full circuit of the projects is shown in schematic
diagram the brain of the receiver is the Pre
programmed micro controller. The circuits comprise
89S52 micro controller (U2), 434MHZ RF receiver
module, relay, buzzer, and MAX232, RS232 Voltage
Level Converter. 89S52 is an 8-bit CMOS micro
controller. Its internal circuitry reducing the need for
external components, thus reducing the cost and
power consumption and enhancing the system
reliability. 89s52 is an 8-bit, low-cost, highperformance flash micro controller. Its key features
are 4k words of flash program memory, 192 bytes of
data RAM.
The automated toll collection will fasten activities at
toll gate there by saving time and reducing man
power. Alcohol detection will ensure safe driving
there by reducing accidents and saving human life.

Introduction
Nowadays, as cities are growing a break-neck pace,
it is very difficult to very difficult to maintain street
lights (switching ON/OFF at proper times, repairing
119
etc). Hygiene is another major concern to civic
authorities. When it comes to maintaining these, it is
the municipal authorities who play a very important
role. It is necessary that these authorities should get
information about such things as quickly as possible
so that they can initiate remedial action immediately.
This project is about developing a system of
providing information, at the earliest, to the
authorities about – (a) faulty street lights and failure
in switching automatic ON/OFF, (b) drainage
overflows in major streets and (c) over filled garbage
containers. This will help authorities to act fast on
such complaints.
Objectives
To design an electronic system to provide
information (mentioned above) to municipal
authorities for immediate action.

Overview
There are some instances when some photos are
damaged or any old photographs of real life heroes
some archeological remains are obtained with
scratches, dots, signatures etc. and these needs to
be removed without damaging the background. This
algorithm provides us with the restored photo or
image, without the unwanted dots, scratches within a
matter of seconds which is reasonable to human eye.
The block diagram of the inpainting technique by fast
marching method is as shown in the figure 3.6. An
image of 208 X 308 pixels is considered for the
process.
The unwanted part of an image is decided first and
that image is taken in paint. The unwanted portion is
painted manually with any of the RGB colour. This
image is then considered as the damaged image.
The original image and the damaged image are read
into the matlab software for processing image.
Block diagram of receiver part
This project can help in :

Reducing theft and other crimes.

Making effective use of power.
120
The next step is to compute the gradient function of
the damaged image. The gradient function of a hole,
which is painted by any of the RGB colour, will be
comparatively higher than that of the known part of
the image. Thus finds the boundary between the
known part and unknown part of the image. The
boundary is also called as Narrow band. This image
undergoes fast marching process. The algorithm of
FMM proceeds as described previously. The process
is carried out until the last patch of the hole is filled.
The Narrow band goes on moving inwards as the
algorithm proceeds. The reconstructed image is
obtained after the process completes.
The hole is completely filled with the known values of
the image surrounding it. An output image is
obtained where the filled region should look
“reasonable” to the human eyes which is shown by
animation.
Applications:






The restoration of old photographs and damaged
films.
Removal of superimposed text like dates
subtitles, logos, signature or publicity.
Removal of entire object from the image like
microphones or wires in special effects, etc.
Image & video editing in entertainment area,
films and etc.
Removal of scratches on image which are
produced in case of any defects of optical lenses
of camera.
Removal of scratches on image can be extended
to videos.
Scope for improvements:
An improvement can be done on performing the
inpainting not only on captured image but also in
moving images (videos). And another improvement is
it can be extended to frequency domain images and
satellite images other than time domain images.
This method can be extended by developing new
inpainting functions that are better able to preserve
isophotes directions. One such way is to integrate
anisotropic diffusion.
Conclusion:
The FMM for object removal is a novel way of
reconstructing damaged or deteriorated parts of an
image. Efficiency and time are the major constraints.
The project is simple to implement, fast i.e. a matter
of seconds and easy to customize for different
inpainting strategies.
The meter not only does the calculation of energy
consumption but also has many advanced and
futuristic features like Tampering Detection unit,
which is able to detect and restrict major tampering
methods. The meter also consists of a GSM module
for communication purpose. The monthly readings in
units are directly sent to the electricity board
periodically, hence there is no need of manual meter
reading. Any attempt to tamper is immediately
detected and informed to the office by sending a
message. If electric bills are not paid timely the
power connection can be easily disconnected by
issuing the command to the meter from office itself
through a message. Similarly it can be reconnected
also after the bills are paid. The meter also informs
the electricity office and also restricts in case a
consumer tries to overload the power line more than
their prescribed limit. The meter also has a LCD
display for convenient viewing of units consumed,
wattage reading and the present month bill details
including the due date for payment. Hence this meter
will not only benefit the electricity board but also the
customers.
Objective

To Design an Electronic meter with advanced
and unique features.

To restrict Meter tampering.

To solve the problem of meter reading in and on
time meter reading.

To provide information about the power usage

bills are not paid in stipulated period.
This FMM method algorithm where there are no
much complex image processing parameters but it
mainly uses the source of information that is already
present in the image to fill or reconstruct the
damaged or deteriorated parts of the image.

Introduction
A Smart Power Meter, which is a single phase digital
electronic energy meter used to measure the active
power and energy consumption in a houses.
121
Electronic Meter Unit
The Smart Power Meter mainly consists of Voltage
Sensing Circuit which senses the voltage across
the load and gives a proportional value as the output,
to be processed by the ADC and then read by the
microcontroller. Current Sensing Circuit which
senses the current and gives a voltage signal directly
proportional to the current flowing through the load.
This is again processed by ADC and read by
microcontroller. Microcontroller is the main
controller of the meter. It performs all the core jobs,
namely Reading the voltage and current signals to
calculate power and energy units. For this purpose
the instantaneous power obtained by multiplying
voltage and current signals are accumulated over a
period, to get an approximate of integration, then
averaged to get the active power and then multiplied
by time period to get desired energy units. Hence
Power Factor is not needed for this purpose. Other
actions include detecting suspicious situations like
meter
bypassing,
current
reversal
etc,
communicating with GSM network and real time
clock, and performing necessary actions on
situations like power disconnect, displaying relevant
information on LCD screen.

Introduction
In this project, the robot is controlled by a mobile
phone that makes a call to the mobile phone
attached to the robot. In the course of the call, if any
button is pressed, a tone corresponding to the button
pressed is heard at the other end of the call. This
tone is called ‘dual-tone multiple frequency’ (DTMF).
The robot perceives this DTMF tone with the help of
the phone stacked in the robot.
It performs the following operations:
1. It requires five controls to roam around. (buttons
2, 4, 5, 6, 8)
2. Two control for video reception.(button 1, 3)
GSM and Real Time Clock is needed for
communication purpose between meter and
electricity office. The RTC keeps track of date and
time. Every month the consumed electricity units
details are sent through the GSM module. The other
necessary informations like TAMPER are also
conveyed through GSM itself. Tamper Detector
uses a neutral current sensor, i.e. a current
transformer connected to the neutral line. The neutral
sensor output and the output from main line current
transformer are given to a comparator. If the current
levels are different in both C.T.s, then a tamper
condition is detected. This detects both bypassing as
well as current reversal.
3. Two way audio communication.
Conclusion
As a method of in-band signaling, DTMF tones were
also used by cable television broadcasters to indicate
the start and stop times of local commercial insertion

the specific purpose with some modifications in the
source program of the microcontroller.

points during station breaks for the benefit of cable
companies.
Telephone Keypad:
The contemporary keypad is laid down out in a 3*4
grid although the original DTMF keypad had an
additional column for four now-defunct menu selector
keys. When used to dial a telephone number,
pressing a single key will produce a pitch consisting
of two simultaneous pure tone sinusoidal
frequencies. The row in which the key appears
determines the low frequency, and the column
determines the high frequency.
The original keypads had levers inside, so each
button activated two contacts. The multiple tones are
the reason for calling the system multifrequency.
These tones are then decoded by the switching
center to determine which key was pressed.

Introduction
Low speed shunts and collision are the most
common type of accidents which causes enormous
damage to life and property.
Power Supply
The power supply section generates a regulated
supply of 5V power supply for the various sections .
The camera needs a 12V supply. The supply is
obtained with a 12V battery. This 12V AC is
converted to DC by passing through rectifier. The
rectifier used is Full wave center tap rectifier. It uses
rectifier diodes IN 4007 the rectified DC is pulsating,
so it is filtered, with an electrolytic capacitor of value
of 10uF / 25V; this is connected in parallel with
rectified o/p for filtering purpose.
Later it can reduced to 5 volts, so the regulator I.C
7805 is used for regulation purpose. This I.C with pin
no 1 as input, to as common, & 3 as o/p. The i/p to
this I.C is 12V. The i/p to this I.c is 12V & o/p from a
regulator is 5V regulated DC supply, which is
supplied to I.C. In between ceramic capacitors are
used for filtering purpose. From this section the
power (DC) is supplied to all the sections of the unit.
Camera Driving Unit:
The Video section consists of a CCD camera. The
camera converts a picture into electrical signals &
those signals can be transmitted to the other end
with the help of a wire or through radio waves. The
camera used is black and white type or color. The
camera operates on 9V D.C regulated power supply.
It connects the power supply & connect the video o/p
signal to the video inline of the T.V then the picture in
front of the camera can be viewed.
The aim of this project is to design ultrasonic sensors
which measures the distance between the device
and an obstacle and then successfully avoid crashing
into it.
Objectives
This project implements speed limitation based on
distance measured between the car and the obstacle
and then using an effective anti braking system
(ABS) using PWM of the signal, thus the regulation of
speed is achieved. The vehicle gradually loses speed

standard
calculations.
 Depending on the distance, speed of the motors
is controlled using PWM.
 Threshold is associated with a predetermined
speed level and within the microcontroller.
 The motor runs at the designated speeds, when
the device crosses each of the distance
thresholds.
 Ultimately the system gradually reduces speed
as it approaches the obstacle thus providing the
user with a timely intimation of a probable
accident.

Test Results and Conclusion
An anticrashing system is designed which is installed
on the moving vehicle (robot) which detects
obstacles during its motion. If an obstacle is
detected, then it estimates the distance to the
obstacle and in case of a probable crash, gradually
decreases the speed to avoid either the crash
completely or reduce the impact of the crash.

control circuit. Using IC CMP 8870 DTMF signal are
decoded. These signals are transmitted as a FM
modulated signal through FM transmitter for
controlling direction of camera. Transmitter antenna
is used to transmit DTMF tones generated from the
DTMF tone generator and also transmits direction
control signal of vehicle from the joy stick control.
The output of motor controller is connected to DC
motor present in the robotic vehicle. Receiver
antenna receives the DTMF signal and outputted to
Mobile receiver. The signal transmitted from the
camera is received by TV receiving antenna and TV
antenna signal is connected to TV receiver to display
the target.
Micro controller based robotic vehicle system was
working correctly for different test condition. It can be
used in surveillance applications for detecting the
unauthorized person in buildings. Simplicity in
operation, less weight, small size, and low power
consumption, portable and reliable operations are the
main advantages of this system. This can be used in
many applications by making little changes in

Methodology
In this model, a GSM based community electric
billing mechanism which will monitor energy meters
and keep a tab of their readings (consumption &
cost) & also display’s to the consumer every time. At
the end of every day, GSM module will send a
consolidated report of the meter reading to KPTCL
base station. at the end of every month the base
station sends a signal to the GSM module of the
customer where the counter starts to count upto the
due date of the payment. If the counter cross the due
date, the module will disconnect the power line. After
consumer pay’s the bill, the base station gives the
command to the module to continue/connect the
power line & also to reset the counter.
Meter Attachment:
The meter attachment will be a micro-controller
based device, which will count the number of
rotations by the circular disk, which rotates inside the
energy meter. This device will hold the meter number
and current reading in an 12c based EEPROM,
24c04 with 4k bits of information, this module will
employ a motor controlled disk which will be
signifying the disk rotation in an analog energy
meter.
In this project the following concepts is being
covered:

8051 based coding.

GSM Modem – AT commands set

I2C protocol.

RS232 Protocol

Processor-To-Processor Communication.

Opto-Couplers.

Sensor
Objective

Database Management.
The GSM based centralised electricity billing system
reduces the human error factor involved. There had
been many cases of these representatives reading 3
as 8, 5 as 6 or vice versa and there had been huge
losses to the Electric company or their clients. There
had been instances that on the request of the tenants
wrong readings were purposefully taken and then the
owner adjusted the bill amount next month in case
the tenant was leaving the house that month. Also,
there had been instances in which the
Representative had not been to the site to take the
actual reading but guessed it depending on the last
reading taken.
Block diagram:
Also, many a times the representative from the
power company comes and disconnects the power
line in case the bills are not settled on time. But the
user instead of paying the bills simple uses a
conductor material and connects the line back
without paying the bill.
Advantages:

It reduces the Human Errors.

It reduces the time
127

It saves power.

Power theft can be controlled

It reduces the number of employ’s
Outcome of the Project:
The project is intended to design a prototype of a
GSM based community electric billing mechanism
which will monitor energy meters and keep a tab of
their readings (consumption & cost) & also display’s
to the consumer every time. The product helps in
monitoring the power consumption by the customer
and also helps the administration of electricity board.
The overall expenses of maintenance and
administration are reduced. Upon the successful
designing and satisfactory working the module can
be produced in mass and can be used commercially.
The module dissipates around 500mWatts of power
for its working.
Aluminium is used to fabricate the structure as it
gives good strength at a reduced weight.

Introduction & Objectives:
A humanoid is developed through the project to
simulate Artificial Intelligence by responding to the
voice instructions of the user. The humanoid
developed is a Speech Controlled Robot. A Speech
Controlled Robot is one whose motions are controlled
by a user by giving voice commands. The Speech
Recognition Engine running on a PC identifies the
voice commands spoken by a user. These
commands may be a single word or a group of words.
For example: “Move”, “Stop”, “Left”, “Right”, “Back” or
“Lift Left Arm”, “Turn Head Right” etc.. After
processing the speech, the necessary motion
instructions are given to the mobile platform through
a serial cable link.
The Skeleton Structure
Methodology:
Mechanics: Artificial Intelligence though involves lots
of Signal Processing and Electronics, a Mechanical
structure is necessary to make it more realistic. The
humanoid has a Mechanical structure made of
aluminium and acrylic. The Mechanical body is not
only meant to give the humanoid a more human
appearance, but also to give the structure an
adequate strength to serve its purpose.
Designing of Mechanical structure is done using
hand drafting. The dimensions are set so that the
humanoid has better load bearing and distribution
capacity and to maintain consistent centre of gravity
while in motion. The core substance is the
Mechanical structure happens to be aluminium.
128
The System Overview
Electronics: The system developed involves a PC
performing the speech processing operations while
the rest of the system remains mobile on the
humanoid. For mobile Digital Signal Processing
(DSP) operations and computations, an on-board
Digital Signal Processor (DSP) and its supporting
peripherals can be used (Ex: ADSP BF561 EZ-Kit).
The PC acts as the Master intelligence core. It is the
Master which can initiate a communication and hence
get commands executed. The Microcomputers are
Slave intelligence systems. They collect the
commands sent by the Master and execute them
efficiently. The Master is thus spared from the details
of actual control which is a slow process.
Speech Recognition: Speech Recognition Engine
(SRE) is used to identify the voice commands and
guide the ECS to realise whatever was commanded.
The Speech Recognition is done through Hidden
Markov Model Tool Kit (HTK) on the a Personal
Computer (PC). The SRE is trained to identify
speech commands that can be used to command the
Humanoid to perform a particular operation. The
commands are sent through a serial link to the
Humanoid. The ECS processes this command and
performs the required operation.
The humanoid can move around and is capable of
lifting small things based on Speech Commands. The
Kerb weight of the humanoid comes up to 18 Kg. The
batteries can last up to 2 hours when continuously
operated. The LCD s display the status of Power
source and the currently running commands.
The HTK writes the recognised utterances into a file.
This file is read by the C-Program . Once a valid
command is found, the corresponding command
code is sent to the humanoid by the program. This
interface with Speech Recognition Engine (SRE)
forms the on-line command execution platform.
The SRE has a possibility of misinterpreting some
noises as one of the voice commands given to the
humanoid. The accuracy of word recognition reduces
in the presence of ambient noise. Words which
sound similar are difficult to recognize. The sound
from motors can also have a significant effect on
accuracy.

More voice commands may be added to the
command list.

The humanoid can be made wireless which gives
it greater degree of freedom to move than the
wired connection.

The humanoid can made completely automatic
using Digital Signal Processors and Image
processing techniques.

The humanoid size can made small and
compact.

It can be made interactive with its environment
and it can display images and give out Speech
Signals.

The complexity of the arm can be increased so
as to imitate or replicate the human hand
functions.

Introduction
It is the duty of every citizen to pay the road tax,
along with a legal license. With the increase of
number of automobiles the rate of accidents is also
increasing so insurance for every vehicle is
necessary. Accidents rate may also increased due to
the invalid licenses. This project aims at
implementing an electronic embedded data
verification i.e., payment of taxes and validity of
license and control of automobiles which can be
efficiently used in RTO stations.
Maintenance of automobile’s data such as payment
of taxes and the manual checking of licenses of
individuals is seems to be a tedious job in RTO. So
there is a need for a system which electronically
verifies all the data and also checks the license
validity.
Objective
The objective of the project is to design electronic
embedded data verification systems for automobiles
that can be implemented in the RTO stations to
check proper collection and updating of different
taxes such as road tax and insurance tax along with
the testing of valid license. This project aims to
develop a tamper proof unique identification system
for each automobile that can help in vehicle as well
as driver identification. In this scenario, the owner of
the car registers in a RTO station so as to create the
data base. The owner is authorized to use the
vehicle if he possesses valid license with payment of
all taxes verified by RTO electronically.
Methodology
Setup: The RF tags will be fixed inside the car. The
reader, which is able to detect the unique number, is
connected to the microcontroller through DB9
connector. In the vehicle a microcontroller circuit will
129
be present. This circuit has a radio frequency
transmitter and receiver (TLP315 and RLP434).
Encoder HD12E is connected to the RF transmitter
and decoder HD12D is connected to the
microcontroller. Also it has a relay switching
mechanism that will be able to deactivate or activate
a car based on the signal received.
In the RTO station the microcontroller circuit contains
radio frequency transmitter and receiver (TLP434
and RLP315). Decoder is connected to the RF
receiver and encoder is connected to the
microcontroller which is connected to the serial port
of the PC through DB9 connector. The computer will
have a Visual basic front end that will contain the
information of all the vehicle status.
through TLP434 transmitter.
It is then received in vehicle through the RLP434.
Depending on the status the microcontroller sends
the enable or disable signal to the relay mechanism
of the vehicle which controls the on and of
mechanism of vehicle. If it is valid, the power supply
flows through relay. The relay is ON. If it is invalid,
there is no power supply, the relay is OFF. The relay
operation shows whether the vehicle starts or not.
The status of the vehicle (insurance, road tax,
pollution) is displayed on the PC in the RTO station
and also on the LCD which is present in the vehicle.
Results and Analysis
Block diagram
Figure 2: Result for valid case
Figure 1: Block diagram
Working
To activate the vehicle the driver is first required to
swipe his license across the RFID reader which is
fixed inside the vehicle. When the driver swipes his
license card, the RFID module reads the RFID tag. It
is then given to the microcontroller circuit through
DB9 connector. The microcontroller then fetches the
data from the EPROM. This is encoded by the
HD12E encoder. Then this information is transmitted
through TLP315 transmitter present in the vehicle to
the RTO station.
The information of 13-digit RFID number of each
vehicle is received in the RTO station through
RLP315 receiver. There it is decoded by the HD12D
decoder present in the RTO station. Then the
conditional status of insurance, road tax and pollution
is checked whether it is valid or not. The status
information of vehicle is transmitted to the vehicle
130
Figure 3: Result for invalid case
The above windows are the data base in RTO station
from where all controlling will be done. With these
above windows we have shown the results. After
swiping the authorized card, valid license will be
displayed on the window. After verification of data we
are checking it gives the status.
In window you can see three parameters. They are
insurance, road tax and pollution tax. Also codes and
due dates of the respective parameters are
displayed. After verification of all the parameters, if
they are valid i.e. insurance, road tax and pollution
tax are up to date; it will show valid status as shown
in Fig 2. Otherwise any of the parameters are not
valid i.e. any of insurance, road tax, pollution tax are
not up to date; it will display invalid status as shown
in Fig 3. Corresponding status will be displayed on
LCD fixed in the car.
Conclusion
This technology gives a view turn in the field of
transportation i.e. all the automobiles will be
controlled wirelessly and this project gives the
effective and systematic collection of all taxes.
Future Scope

Since the concept of wireless transmission is
used as backbone, work should be done to take
care for the proper data transfer without any loss.

Development for the proper network coverage
must be installed to all the remote places
systematically.

Introduction and Methodology
Robotics is the area of science and technology of
robots, and their design, manufacture, and
application. Fascinated by NASA’S project which
involved in controlling an unmanned robot in planet
mars, a simpler version of this is attempted.
This project mainly involves in controlling the rover
with the help of a cell phone. Both the user as well as
the rover should be equipped with a cell phone each.
The signaling as a medium of communication
between the user and the rover is “DTMF”. The cell
phone present in the rover should be in auto answer
mode such that it is ready to pick the call of the user
at any respective time. The microcontroller is pre
programmed to take a decision for any given valid
input and outputs its decision to the appropriate
driving circuits. Hence the rover could be controller
from any place on earth provided the cell phone
network is existent both at the transmitter and the
receiving ends.
The microcontroller used for controlling the rover is
PIC18F8722. Features like IR have been used
primarily to detect obstacle and to avoid collisions.
An additional camera has also been placed at the top
of the rover in order to survey a particular area. The
rover has also been programmed to operate in auto
mode, where in the rover propagates without
encountering any collision with the nearby obstacle.
An additional feature of FM circuitry has been
provided as a just in case the cell phone fails to
operate due to network failure, where in DTMF tones
are generated and transmitted using FM channel and
are received at the rover’s receiver.
The rover has been programmed to achieve different
speeds through rear wheel control using pulse width
modulation. Hence depending on a particular terrain
appropriate speed could be chosen. Front wheel
control was achieved by a stepper motor. Camera
movement is controlled by another stepper motor.
The microcontroller was programmed in a manor
such that all motor can function independently. For
this four timers were used, each were controlling
each motor. Each subroutine checks the status
registers present in the Ram and performs necessary
actions.
Observations:





The primary requirement for proper functioning
requires open surroundings.
One of the major cons of this project is that rover
can be controlled by any cell phone; hence there
is a need for password protection scheme to
ensure safety.
The FM remote constructed provides a
controlling range of only 50-75 meters on open
grounds.
The rover moves outside the range the control is
lost.
Continuous working of the rover is difficult and as
it takes a lot of power to drive various motors.
Experimentally it was observed that the rover
was drawing a current of 2A, so power
consumptions have to be reduced considerably.
131

Power consumption seen above could be
reduced by the following means:
 Reducing the net weight of the setup.
 Use stand alone microcontroller instead of
using the PIC demo board.
 Replacing stepper motor by servo motor.
•
Applications

It automatically detects improper locking and
displays particular door locker is not properly
locked.

It senses the engine heat and cools the engine
automatically

As soon as accident occurs sms is transmitted
displaying the message at owner home through
rf tx.

It can be employed even in industries, with slight
modification in the circuits.
The following future enhancements are suggested:


A GPS kit could help to know the exact position
of the rover.
Full duplex communication can be adopted
So that the rover can communicate with the user
and give valid information like speed and
position.
Pic 32 bit microprocessor could be used to
perform image processing on the captured
image.

Lithium batteries could be used for longer
standby time.

Introduction:
Remote control and operation of a ground vehicle is
taken up here. Dual Tone Multiple Frequency
(DTMF), which has wide application in the area of
wireless communication, has been used. Controlling
the motion of the vehicle is done depending upon the
video feedback that is obtained from the vehicle side
using DTMF keypad. Depending upon the key
pressed, the micro controller within the vehicle
performs the necessary actions such as movements
of the camera both in horizontal and vertical
directions, activating the laser source, etc. The
vehicle sends live video pictures through video
transmitter, which is received at the controlling end
through Video receiver. Depending upon the
received video, the operator at the controlling end
performs necessary actions.
Objective:

To save the human life in military field Using the
designed vehicle.
Methodology:
The system has been designed that controls the
headlight focus in two degrees of freedom, the
horizontal and vertical direction. The output, in terms
of the position of the headlight, obtained for different
steering wheel angles was tabulated. The output is in
terms of the position of the shaft from the mean
position.
When a key is pressed, the corresponding upper and
lower frequencies get combined to generate a DTMF
tone. This tone is frequency modulated by a carrier
frequency of 99MHz. and transmitted using a FM
transmitter. The FM receiver receives the frequency
modulated signal and demodulates the received
signal and original DTMF tone. This tone is given to
the input of the DTMF decoder IC CMD8870. The
decoder IC produces the corresponding 4-bit binary
value.When the steering signal goes low, the PIC
disables the current function and waits for the
steering signal to go high. Port D is the output port in
which one of the bits is activated depending on the 4bit binary input value in port C. Depending upon the
output port status, corresponding functions such as
turning ON or OFF of the corresponding relay or
activating the laser source are carried out. A video

Introduction
Methodology:
When the vehicle is run by petrol engine, the AC
produced is converted to DC and stored in the
battery pack. Battery pack not only gets charged
through engine alternator but also by the hub motor
through reverse charging. Engine drive can be
directly switched over to the battery drive after
neutralizing the gear followed by engine turn off.
When the engine is switched over to battery mode,
the hub motor acts as a driver motor and twowheeler starts moving. Electric current from the
battery pack is drawn to drive the hub motor forward
by using throttle with PWM unit.
If four-stroke vehicles can be fitted with this system
(instead of two-stroke Hero Puch 2G vehicle is used
in this project), the fuel savings can be even greater.
Further, batteries need no external charging. Further,
the noise created from the vehicle is reduced.

Front braking system and speedometer
mechanism need to be re-designed.

The use of deep discharging batteries can be

A lot of new technologies are being developed to
reduce the pollution caused by it. Hybrid Technology
has become highly successful in cars, improving the
efficiency and reducing the pollution. In some foreign
countries, hub motor has been used in combination

Face detection is the essential front end of any face
recognition system, which locates and segregates
face regions from cluttered images, either obtained
from video or still image. The task of face detection is
so trivial for the human brain, yet it still remains a
challenging and difficult problem to enable a

computer to do face detection. This is because the
human face changes with respect to internal factors
like facial expression, beard and mustache, glasses
etc and it is also affected by external factors like
scale, lightning conditions, contrast between face
and background and orientation of the face.
The problem of face detection in still images is more
challenging and difficult when compared to the
problem of face detection in video since motion
information can lead to probable regions where a
face could be located.
Objective
neighboring places, then both the pixels belong to
the same region.
The centroid is found by the average of the
coordinates of all the pixels in that region. For finding
height

The y-coordinate of the centroid is subtracted
from the y-coordinates of all pixels in the region.

Find the average of all the positive y-coordinates
and negative y-coordinates separately.

Add the absolute values of both the averages
and multiply by 2.
The goal of this project is to implement a system
capable of Detecting faces in near real-time and to
address the issue of developing a face Detection
system under reduced constraints like Variability in
face size, Face orientations, Face locations, Facial
expressions , Partial occlusions and Lightning
conditions.
This gives the average height of the region. Average
width can be found similarly by using x coordinates.
Since the height to width ratio of human faces falls
within a small range on the real axis, using this
parameter along with percentage of skin in a region,
the algorithm should be able to throw away most of
non face skin regions.
The goal of a face detection algorithm is to identify
the location and Scale of all the faces in the image.
Using Edge Information
Face Dectection
It consists of three steps.

The first step is to classify each pixel in the given
image as a skin pixel or a non-skin pixel.

The second step is to identify different skin
regions in the skin detected image by using
connectivity analysis.

The last step is to decide whether each of the
skin regions identified is a face or not. This is
done using two parameters. They are the height
to width ratio of the skin region and the
percentage of skin in the rectangle defined by the
height and width.
There are many ways to perform edge detection.
However, the most may be grouped into two
categories, gradient and Laplacian. The gradient
method detects the edges by looking for the
maximum and minimum in the first derivative of the
image. The Laplacian method searches for zero
crossings in the second derivative of the image to
find edges.
Figures below shows a normal Image and its edge
image respectively.
Methodology
Skin Pixel Classification : Different color spaces
used in skin detection previously include HSV,
normalized RGB, YCrCb, YIQ and CIELAB. Skin
color can be modeled using a histogram, a single
Gaussian or a mixture of Gaussians. It is
demonstrated that the histogram model is superior to
other models. Also, the histogram is easy to
implement and is computationally efficient.
In the HSV space, H stands for hue component,
which describes the shade of the color, S stands for
saturation component, which describes how pure the
hue (color) is while V stands for value component,
which describes the brightness.
Connectivity Analysis : Using the skin detected
image, one knows whether a pixel is a skin pixel or
not, but cannot say anything about whether a pixel
belongs to a face or not. Grouping the skin pixels in
the image based on a 8-connected neighborhood i.e.
if a skin pixel has got another skin pixel in any of its 8

Experimental Results
Introduction:
The algorithm is applied on a wide variety of images
taken under different lighting conditions and with
different backgrounds. The images also have areas
containing skin from other parts of the body like
hands, and areas with color very similar to that of
skin. These areas get classified as skin and they
form skin regions accordingly.
µC based Patient Care Monitoring System is mainly
developed to monitor the patient’s health regularly.
Here sensors are used to monitor the specific
parameter of the health i.e. to measure heartbeat,
heartbeat sensor is used and to measure
temperature, temperature sensor is used. The
gadget works in two modes one is GSM mode and
other is PC mode. When doctor is far from the patient
he will switch the device to GSM mode by which he
will get patient details via SMS. In PC mode, when
he with patient there is no need of sending message
to doctor so the patient will be monitored through PC
itself. The main advantage of this gadget is patient
may also be in home and if abnormalities occur that
will be informed to doctor soon.
Objectives:

To monitor body temperature of the patient and
sending a call at times when heart beat is
abnormal and a call is given to specified user
defined location through a telephone call.
Different training faces for skin color
Conclusion
A fast algorithm for face detection based on skin
color, connectivity and edge information has been
proposed. The algorithm is fast and can be used in
real-time applications. The images
on which the algorithm is tested are natural images
taken under uncontrolled conditions and the
algorithm does well on them. The algorithm locates
faces but does not give the exact contour. Some kind
of post-processing (such as extraction of eyes) will
help to capture the face contour exactly
for use by a face recognition system. Detecting faces
that are partly occluded or that are overlapping
remains a challenge to be addressed.

Methodology:
ECG sensors are used to keep continuous watch on
heartbeats. It sends ON pulse when it is activated i.e.
at times when it gets heartbeats or breathing. The
output of sensor is given to the preamplifier for
adding extra strength to the signals because the
output of sensor cannot drive any circuit directly.µC
Unit controls the working according to the program
that means µ-Controller sends appropriate pulses /
signals to display unit. Buzzer detects the fault or
error. Trans-receiver which is used to communicate
between microcontroller unit and the GSM modem. It
sends data to & from the µ-controller unit. P.S.U.
(power supply unit) provides appropriate voltages to
all the sections.
This is one of the better methods to monitor a patient
those who suffer from illness continuously. With the
help of GSM modem the doctor gets the message of
patient illness. Also doctor can check heart beat rate,
glucose level etc.
Extremely user friendly and requires no special
training for operating it.
Scope for Future Work:


The Aluminum body can be replaced by a
material called as GLARE, which is a explosive
resistant, bullet proof material.

This module can be placed on the vehicle so that
the batteries are charged periodically when not
engaged in a combat. This helps the vehicle to
stay on site for a longer duration.
By little modification the same unit is useful for
any hospital even to check glucose flow, blood

Introduction:
With the growth of terrorism all over the world, the
threat to the lives of civilians and the army has
increased to a great extent. This project is a small
step towards protecting the precious lives of our
brave soldiers who lay down their lives countering
terrorists. The main feature of this design is that it is
economically feasible, user friendly and completely
Remote controlled.
Objective:

Introducing and inducting modern technology like
Robots for the defence.
Methodology:
The Detect and Destroy vehicle is a remote
controlled shooting vehicle. A video camera and a
gun are mounted on the vehicle. As the vehicle is
wireless, it can be sent to a location where kind of
action/operation is being carried out. The camera
captures the images of the operation site. These
captured images are streamed with minimal delay to
the control room from where the vehicle is being
controlled by an operator. The images are displayed
on a laptop or on a CRT depending upon the need. If
the operator finds any suspicious object or person,
he can give various commands to the vehicle
(Movement of the vehicle, rotation of the turret etc).
All these commands are executed with high
accuracy. A pair of RF trans-receivers is being used
for data transmission. It uses ASK and works at a
frequency of 434 MHz.
The Remote controlled detect and destroy vehicle
might help in giving a momentum to the ongoing
technological revamp of the Indian army. It is a low
cost robot which can make mass production.

and the problems faced by people who are suffering
from severe visual impairment. In this project, a
mechanism is designed which should cater to the
following features:
1. Inform the ‘blind person’ of the obstacles that are
present around him.
2. Inform the ‘blind person’ of any puddle of water in
front.
3. Inform the ‘blind person’ of any vehicles are
coming at the bus stop.
Objectives:

To design a belt/ jacket, which will be consisting
of sensors, which will be sensing any object
present in-front of sensors.

To attach a water sensing mechanism, which will
be attached to the soles of the shoes, the ‘blind
person’ will be wearing.

To attach wireless transmitters on the vehicles
on a particular route and display the bus number
on a watch kind of wearable arrangement on the
‘blind persons’ wrist.
Methodology:
With advent of embedded technology, the entire
circuit can incorporated in a single chip which is
compact yet performing all the specified operations.
The Photo-IR sensors that were currently employing
for obstacle detection work on the wavelength of 0.71.0 µm. currently the sensor can detect the presence
of obstacles only around 12cm, perhaps by
employing high range sensors it can realistically help
blind person in real time situations.
137
All the three features of this project viz obstacle
detection, vehicle identifications, puddle detection
has been successfully accomplished. Though the
entire project circuit looks highly complicated and
complex. Another gain is that the burden on the blind
person will be substantially reduced and the blind will
not feel an iota of discomfort with the
implementations on a single chip.

Introduction
In this project, the water is supplied to the crops by
knowing the moisture content of the soil
automatically using microcontroller. This reduces
the workload of the farmer. Also the wastage of
water may be reduced, as some crops may not
require much of the water supplied to them, so there
may be wastage of water. The pump supplies only
the required amount of water, reducing the excess
supply of water
In this technique the sensors inserted in the soil
detect the actual moisture level of the soil.
According to the moisture level of the soil there will
be change in conductivity between the sensors that
are placed in the form of probes. Signal from the
sensors is fed to the microcontroller through the
driving stage. The microcontroller is designed in
such a way that according to the moisture level
between the probes the pump closes or opens the
valves to irrigate the field.
The microcontroller also receives a logical signal
about the abnormal conditions such as high
temperature of the pump, the improper voltage level
of supply and dry running of the pump. In such
situations microcontroller won’t allow the pump to
‘turn on’. The abnormalities are indicated by the
LEDs.
According to these three parameters and the
condition of soil the pump goes to ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’.
The output of pump can be further connected to
solenoid valves, where these supplies water to the

Introduction
Pomegranate is scientifically known as Punica
granatum and belongs to the family of punicaceac. In
India pomegranate is commercially planted in
Maharashtra,Gujarat and to a limited extent in UP,
AP, Karnataka and Tamilnadu. This fruit crop can
tolerate salinity and saline irrigation water does well
even in shallow soils. It can also tolerate drought.
Large production of pomegranate products like juice,
ready to serve beverage, squash, preservation of
seeds by canning or bottling and by modified
atmospheric packaging, there is necessity to
development of mechanical device. At present such
device is not been developed and hence it is not
available commercially. In view of this it is very
essential to take up a project for development of
such a device.
Objectives:
3. To provide good quality of chapathi.

To help the farmers to get maximum benefit.
4. To use Mechatronics effectively and efficiently in
food processing industry.

To relieve the stress on industrialists induced by
manual separation of seeds.
Methodology:

To increase the rate of production.

Selection of materials.

To reduce the cost of separation.

Design and drawings.
Methodology:

Fabrication and assembly.

Testing.
In the initial stages the approaches for seed
separation are found as follows:
The equipment is most useful as far as domestic
applications are concerned. Since it is made modular
the parts can be easily removed and cleaned. The
equipment parts are made of non-sticky material in
order to maintain hygienic condition. The quality of
chapathi is made to be good in this equipment.

The entire equipment can be made remote
operated.
1. Centrifugal action.
2. Impinging water jet.
3. Relative motion.
Pomegranate fruit is cut into four pieces by cutter
which is placed at top of the rotating frustum, which
are fed in between cylindrical permanent square hole
grid and rotating frustum. The fruit pieces rubbed in
between two parts and seeds separated and
collected in outer stainless steel drum. The seeds
along with the bark are dropped in a vibrating sieve
and finally seeds are separated from the bark. Bark
remained in sieve must be removed manually.
139
The machine can extract seeds from the fruit without
crushing the fruit, with a higher removal rate of
around 120 fruits per min which is very economical,
comparatively requires less labour and easy to
construct and dismantle. It can be concluded that the
relative motion mechanism is best suited for the
separation of pomegranate seeds and developed
device is cost effective, user friendly, the seeds
damage is negligible during the optimum speed for
which design is carried out.
This project is aimed at providing a crash impact
reducing system for the vehicle cabins. A set of
parallel springs are mounted between the cabin and
the bonnet which produces a repulsive force in case
of a crash, and hence reducing the impact by sliding
the cabin backwards on the rails provided. This
enhances the safety of the passenger by a
considerable amount.
There is a high scope for future scope like making a
bigger high capacity product by increasing the drum
size, making it a little compact.

Introduction:
Crash Sliding System is an innovative safety feature
in automobiles. With the automobiles being better in
terms of technology, this project provides a
comprehensive method of reducing deaths due to
crashes. Hence this is an effort to put forth the
knowledge for the betterment of the society and help
save millions of lives. A bunch of parallel springs are
fixed between the front end of the cabin and the
bonnet. The cabin is made to slide back for beyond
the critical value of impact. This critical value
determines that the vehicle has undergone an
accident. And hence this system is made active by
detaching the lock provided for the springs for this
critical value.
Objective:

To protect the lives of people commuting in cars
and reducing deaths due to crashes.
Methodology:
The crash sensor operates when load on it exceeds
critical load. It actuates a bell crank lever connected
to a tension springs through links. The lever operates
beyond the designed value of spring tension when
sensor operates. The offset holes which is provided
for locking becomes concentric. This results in
detachment of the cabin. The cabin slides on the
guide ways/slots which is fitted with a journal bearing
to facilitate smooth slide. The slot even has a
restriction so that cabin doesn’t completely fall off
from the sides. To aid the vehicle to an actual crash
test drive system is provided with an electric motor
with belt drive.

Introduction
Seed coating is a process wherein the seed before
sowing is coated with desired inoculants (mixture of
various fertilizers, pesticides, micro-organisms etc).
At present farmers in and around get the required
materials in the form of adhesive and coating
powder, and just before sowing ‘Hand- Coat’ the
seeds. Due to evident human errors the coating is
not uniform and this is affecting the overall yield of
the crop. Even though seed coating machines are
available with the government departments, it’s
beyond the scope of the farmer to afford them or
even get the seeds coated from them. The project
team proposes to design and fabricate an
indigenously built ‘Seed Coating Machine’.
Objectives:

To design and fabricate an indigenously built
affordable ‘Seed Coating Machine’, which will
decrease the non-uniformity of the coatings from
the current practices and hence will lead to a
substantial increase in the crop yield.
Methodology:
In the machine the inputs are collectively mixed
together to deliver the output. The seeds which are
present in the perforated drum are lowered into a
bath of coating mix consisting of the adhesive and
coating powder, present inside the sump at the
bottom. Then calculated number of rotations is given
to the drum. This ensures the uniform agitation of the
seeds inside the drum and the coating mix. The
perforated drum is then lifted up with the help of the
screw and allowed to stand at an intermediate
position. The drum is again rotated at this position.
This allows the dripping of the excess bath mix from
the seeds ensuring a more uniform coating. The
uniformly coated seeds are then taken out through
the circumferential opening of the drum. The power
for rotation of the drum is manual. The seeds are
then shade dried for about an hour before sowing.

Three model designs have been worked upon so far
and the third model was decided upon finally after
the preliminary testing was Okayed. Uniformity and
Germination rate tests were conducted which yielded
noticeably beneficial results hence leading to the
conclusion of the machine being successful in
achieving its stated objectives.
This dryer uses a “through pass” collector
configuration . Solar energy passes through a glazing
material(glass of 6mm thickness) and is absorbed by
the copper sheet placed at the bottom of the
collector. The air around the absorber is heated and
rises into the drying chamber. A slight vacuum or
negative pressure is created by the rising air which
draws in additional air through the inlet vent and
copper absorber sheet. Air is heated and the process
continues. Tilting the collectors is more effective than
placing them horizontally, for two reasons. Solar
energy can be collected when the collector surface is
more nearly perpendicular to the sun’s rays. Second
by tilting the collectors the warmer less dense air
rises naturally into the drying chamber .The size of
the collector depends on the following:

Mechanization can be achieved by coupling the
model to a bicycle with the help of reduction
gears to maintain constant RPM.

Even motors can be used.

The material for the sump and cylinder can be
suitably changed by using materials such as
Stainless steel, aluminum, tin, plastic, PVC,
wood.

Introduction
An attempt has made to reduce the size as well as
cost and make it more portable so that it can be
moved any where in farm or the house top with ease.
The solar dryer which is fabricated in this project
operates simply by natural convection. It can dry full
lot of coconuts in two sunny to partly sunny days in
humid climate or a smaller load in one good sunny
day. Obiviously the amount of sun shine and
humidity will affect performance, with better
performance on clear, sunny and less humidity days.
Methodology:
The passive indirect type coconut solar dryer
consists of the following components

Flat air collector

Drying chamber

Inlet vent

Outlet vent

The amount of material being dried

The materials moisture content.

The humidity in the air.

The average amount of solar radiation available
during the drying season.
Copper absorber: Copper is used as absorber and
coated with black paint. Black coating is done
because the absorptivity of the perfect black body is
unity and hence by Kirchoff’s law : Emmisivity =
Absorptivity =1. thus maximum utilization of solar
energy is possible as the black body will absorb all
wavelengths at every incident angle
Drying Chamber: The drying chamber is made up of
anodized Al sheet , internally insulated with Al foil
faced thermocol(of half inch). The door is made up of
ply wood provided with the transparent glass for the
frequent observations of test items.the drying
chamber as six sliding trays which of mesh type for
the free air circulation through food stuffs. The door
of chamber is sophisticated with magnetic lock for air
tight chamber. Once side of the chamber is provide
with the hole from which the chamber inlet air
temperature is measured a. and the another side
chain drive is present for rotating the cylinder.
Inlet vent: The inlet vent is provided at the base of
the flat plate collector. A screen is provided at the
inlet vent,so that the air cannot rush into the flat plate
collector. The principle here is,as the air flows inside
the flate plate collector through the vent, the air gets
heated up. The advattage of providing screen is,not
only to avoid rushing of air but, it also prevents the
dust particles, insects and pets entering the chamber
through the inlet vent.
141
Outlet Vent: The oulet vent is provided at the top of
the drying chamber. The air coming through the
cylinder after providing heat to the food stuff passes
out side through this outlet vent. The outlet vent is a
one inch gap given at the top of the drying chamber.
It is provided with a small canopy which is slanted
downwards so that the from the atmosphere should
not get into the chamber to decrease the efficiency of
the drying chamber.
Outlet vent covers the top,if closed at night wood

hence it is insulated properly using half inch
thermocol and provided with a thin layer of Al foil
sheet on top provide an reflective surface for heat
into the chamber. The drying chamber sides are also
provided with Al foil faced thermocol for insulation.
Cylinder: The two cylinders are placed in the drying
chamber pivoting centrally by means of bearings to
the side wall of the drying chamber. It can be rotated
with the help of chain drive in order to maintain
uniform temperature. The cylinder is made up of
perforated mesh. The hot air is passed through the
mesh to dry the coconut powder.
Conclusion
The “Passive Indirect Type Coconut - Solar Drier”
technology has been successfully demonstrated and
is ready for commercialization.
The proposed dryer has worked well in our test. It
can produce temperature range of 130-180 deg F
(54-82 deg F).
The best performance in our outdoor was attained
with bright sunny day and copper absorber plate
painted black. The surface behind the absorber
should be reflective, and for best performance the
exhaust wet should spread uniformly.
The cost of the dryer and the time to construct it is
reduced by using locally available items like mild
steel and aluminum and is easier to work with. We
made the unit more portable by adding wheels and
improved the durability by using the anodized AL
sheets for body outer covering and fastening with
rivets. This would further decrease the cost of the
dryer.
Drying Compartment: side view of drying chamber
Mobility: The coconut solar dryer is compact one
and it can be moved to any where easily. For the
easy movement of the system wheels are provided at
the front. These wheels are not only enhance the the
easy movement but also provide easy handling for
the user.
Frames and Casing: The system is simple and
robust in desiogn. The basic skeleton structure which
holds the whole system and gives rigidity to it is
made from M.S. angles welded together. The outer
body covering the structure is Anodised Al sheet
which is fastened to the structure using rivets. This
gives it durability as the Al is free from rust and
corrosion and gives light weight construction.
Insulation: Insulation is an important criterion in the
effective drying of food stuffs and has to retain high
temperature for long time. When solar radiation
enters through the glazing into the the collector
chamber and heats it up, there is always a possibility
142
It is our hope that once the simplicity of solar energy
system design is understood, engineers and
manufacturers will provide new system designs for
the factory for large scale production, that will expand
the solar market worldwide and permit all to benefit
from this clean, sustainable and distributed source of
energy.

Introduction
Solar energy is a clean and abundent energy
resource that can be used to supplement many of
our energy needs. Solar energy can be utilised as a
form of heat, such as solar water heating, as an
electricity and in photovoltaics.
In this project the fluid is used instead of water as a
working medium. The fluid flows in a closed loop and
heats up the water in the storage tank.
Methodology
The evacuated tubes are made from copper typically
ultra strong and heat resistant pyrex with a double
wall construction. The fluid is used in the system also
called as heat transfer oil and help for transferring
heat energy from heat source to the required vessel,
where the heat energy is used. The copper tube is
coated on its outer surface with an absorbent
coating, and on its inner surface with a reflective
coating. Sunlight enters through outer copper tube
and strikes the absorber tubes and changes to hear.
The heat is transferred to the liquid flowing through
the absorber tube. The evacuated space is filled with
a low boiling point thermal fluid, this thermal fluid is
converted into steam. When the sun rays falls on the
outer cover of the collector with the help of the
steam. The evacuated space available around the
copper tubes through which water is circulated. Heat
conduction takes place to the water, which is flowing
in the copper tube, which eliminate conductive and
convective heat loss.
The external reflectors increases the radiation
received by the collector as the radiation that usually
passes through the gap between tubes is driven back
on to the absorber. As heat rises, hot vapours from
the antifreeze rise up to the top of the heat pipe
where its copper tip connects with a header pipe
through which more antifreeze flows. This hot
antifreeze is than pumped through pipes inside the
hot water tank and with the end water gets hotter and
antifreeze cooler. The antifreeze move around the
system and solar water heater to be reheated.
engineering concepts with low cost and high
efficiency. A lathe is a machine tool used principally
for shaping pieces of metal, wood, or other materials
by causing the work piece to be held and rotated by
the lathe while a tool bit is advanced into the work
causing the cutting action.
Objective:

To use the sensors for controlling the tool
movement in a lathe machine.

To make programming simple, understandable
by any user, to lower the cost of the machine and
can be used or implemented with very little
practice.
Methodology :
The microcontroller is programmed according to the
requirement of machining. A home position of the
tool is set so that each and every machining or the
program starts from that point.
When the system is switched on the x axis motor
sets itself to starting position, if motor X rotates in a
direction until the starting position in x direction is
reached which is decided by the limit switches used
in the setup so there is an if loop used over there.
Then, similarly the y-axis motor rotates and sets itself
to home position if not motor Y rotates in a direction
until the home position is reached which is also
decided by the limit switch which is shown by another
if loop.

Introduction:
With an increase in the need for quality
manufacturing along with the factors of short lead
times, short product lives and increasing consumer
awareness regarding the quality of the product, it is
becoming important for the manufacturers to initiate
steps to achieve their objective. This objective can
only be achieved by the use of alternate innovative
When both the axes, X and Y are set to starting
position, the third Stepper motor which runs the band
143
program stars rotating and then the program loop is
entered. This loop shows the working of the sensors.
There are 4 sensors and 4 different directions of the
tool movement X +ve and X-ve, Y+ve and Y-ve. The
band program contains 4 different columns in front of
each sensor. When a particular sensor is activated
the tool moves in that particular direction. That
direction is achieved by that particular motor rotating
in that particular direction. If the metal strip get
sensed in X+ve column then the motor X rotates in
that direction and the tool is moved in that particular
direction. The distance is proportional to the length of
the strip or the time through which the sensor is
activated. The same principle is used to achieve the
tool movement in other three directions.
This Controller is called 3 Axis Controller as it
controls the 3 stepper motors rotating parallel to 3
different axes.
Conclusion:

It works automatically.

Almost manual work is reduced.

Accuracy of the machining depends upon the
accuracy of the sensors.

The sensors give good sensing result with iron,
aluminum and copper.

Machining Accuracy depends upon the stiffness
of the programmable band.

Dimmerstat can be used to control the speed of
the spindle motor.

Any other sensors lake colour sensors may be
used to achieve the accuracy.

To achieve higher accuracy different like
polymers, resins with high stiffness may be used.


To manufacture a small car from scratch utilizing
conventional as well as renewable sources of
energy
The mini car weighing ~ 230 kg with 3.15 HP Kinetic
Honda 2 stroke petrol scooter engine with
indigeneously fabricated chassis is completed. A DC
motor is also mounted on the chassis to
simultaneously power the car. The motor is supplied
with electrical power from 2 standard storage
batteries connected in series . The batteries also can
be charged by solar power & wind turbine(to very
small level though).The vehicle has been completed
& tested on road.
Due to time & cost constraints the control on dc
motor could not be completed though efforts were
made by the students. The same can be done with
dc motor controls on a future vehicle.
Also the percentage contributions of non
conventional sources can be enhanced for a future
vehicle .Also new renewable sources such as
hydrogen etc. can be incorporated in futuristic
vehicles.

Introduction:
Alcohol intake is one of the major causes of road
traffic accidents and many of them turn out fatal.
Actually drinking and driving do not mix. Alcohol is
known to interfere the driving ability of the individuals
because it affects the visual acuity, reaction time and
reflexes. The Alcohol Breath Tester is commonly
used at laboratory, Police, Military, Airport or while on
the road. Units activated through a micro switch, after
a brief internal self test; the test subject blows
through the sensor and result are converted and read
within few seconds. Breath Tester used as a monitor,
it can indicate when equivalent alcohol percentages
are below or above the legal limits. The Alcoholmeter
was introduced as it becomes easy for the police to
deal with the suspect drunk driver. Breath alcohol
concentration from exhale air is obtained using
Breath alcoholmeter.
Objectives:

To educate people to use these instruments
properly and scientifically so as to avoid legal
complication.
Methodology:
LCD is used for user interaction with the system,
16*2 LCD display based on Hitachi HD 447780
controller. The sensing elements is installed in the
metal housing which uses double stainless steel
mesh (100 mesh) in the path of gas flow. The change
of the sensor resistance (RS) is obtained as the
change of the output voltage across the fixed or
variable resistor (RL). Sensitivity characteristics of
the gas sensor are expressed by the relationship
between
the
sensor
resistance
and
gas
concentration. The sensor resistance decreases
within increase of gas concentration based on a
logarithmic function. The sensing material in gas
sensor is metal. Inside the sensor, electric current
flows through the conjunction parts (grain boundary)
of SnO2 micro crystals. At grain boundaries,
adsorbed oxygen forms a potential barrier which
prevents carriers from moving freely. The electrical
resistance of the sensor is attributed to this potential
barrier. In the presence of a deoxidizing gas, the
surface density of the negatively charged oxygen
decreases. So the barrier height in the grain
boundary is reduced. He reduced barrier height
decreases sensor Resistance.
Block Diagram:
Result and Conclusion:
This project demonstrates a simplified Breath
Analyzing system using microcontroller, gas sensor
and LCD. As this is the microcontroller based project,
it is very accurate in its actions. This project designed
to be all practical, can be implemented by the police
to detect the excess alcohol consumed by drivers.
On improving the sensing efficiency of this project
design it would be possible to distinguish between
ethanol and methanol. Institutions and business with
policies of random drug testing may use this breath
analyzer.

impaired. For them, all that objects, which exists in
their way, is not easily accessible. There are number
of recent technical developments which will assist
people with disabilities to find features within their
environments. The devices include ones which give
the users information on what is available in their
vicinity, ones which help them to navigate to a
particular facility and ones which assist the user to
get help. This project idea sets out to list and
describe a number of items of new technology and
how they can be used to assist blind and partially
sighted people.
Objectives:

To build an automatic object detecting assistant
which combines small-size, mobility and low
cost.

Methodology:
The design of a product is a laborious task, which
tasks tall of immense creative skills bringing out the
artist and designer with an engineer. He is directed
by the axioms of the industrial designs, which are:

The user one who experiences the need

The user who is only constant

The user who is the final datum
The project named “Blind Assisting Device” has been
successfully designed and developed within the
allotted time. This system is a compact instrument,
which is developed to help a blind person. Since the
device is centered on PIC Microcontroller the
hardware section is tremendously reduced. The
system can be further developed with more sensors
and camera. Here we have tried our very best to
include all the features stated in the beginning.

Introduction:
Human life is very precious. Micro controller based
robotic vehicle system is a sincere effort made by us
to save the precious human life in some dangerous
field such as military and fire brigade.
Conventional wireless controlled robots use RF
circuits; the disadvantage of this robot is short
working range, limited frequency range and limited
control. Use of mobile phones for robotic control can
overcome these limitations, and provides robust
control. Working range as large as the coverage area
of the service provider, no interference with other
controllers.
Objectives:
Robotic army surveillance project implements a
system that can be used in the real time applications
in army purposes. The robot can be move in all
terrine,( i.e. it can move in all the surfaces). It carries
a weapon over the plate provided. The target in the

RF Transmitters and Receiver: The RF system is
used as a communication system between the robot
and PC. The PC can access the robot through RF
system. It is used to transmit the composite video
signal. The received audio and video camera is
amplified and then transmitted through transmitter to
the system.
GSM Module : The GSM module uses two mobiles
one is kept in the robot with auto answering mode
and another one is used as a remote. When the
particular key is pressed the signal is received by the
mobile stacked in the robot and processed by the
DTMF decoder.
DTMF Decoder: The robot is controlled by a mobile
phone that makes a call to the mobile phone
attached to the robot. In the course of call, if any
button pressed, a tone corresponding to the button
pressed is heard at other end of the call. This tone is
called Dual Tone Multiple Frequency (DTMF) tone.
The robot perceives this DTMF tone with the help of
the phone stacked in the robot
Microcontroller: The microcontroller forms the main
control system of the robot. It is the heart of our
system; it is a single chip micro computer with inputoutput ports, timer, clock generator, program
memory,
stack and serial port etc. It is a 40 pin IC made by
Micro chip Company. The microcontroller is used in
controlling and processes it through digital camera,
and then control the weapon.
Camera: The digital camera used is the high
resolution camera to capture the image in the war
field. It gives the good quality of the image, and it
converts picture information into video signals then
send it to the system.
Weapon control: A suitable weapon is used to fight
against the terror at the present situation. The
weapon control is used to control the direction of the
weapon and target the weapon at the right direction
and fire the weapon accurately. A weapon with
accuracy is used to destroy the enemy. This uses
two DC motors one for horizontal and another for
vertical rotation.
Motor drive : The whole movement is controlled by
the DC motor drive i.e., L298 IC through a
microcontroller system. A circuit is used in controlling
the speed and direction of motors. L293D IC is used
to control DC motor which in term controls the
movement of camera and weapon in all direction.

MICROSYSTEMS TECHNOLOGIES
Prof. K. J. Vinoy
[email protected]
Microsystems are increasingly used in several branches of science and engineering due to its
immense potential in application areas of very high significance to the mankind. The technology
has already been used in addressing several lingering challenges in aerospace, automotive, civil,
mechanical, biomedical and communication engineering disciplines. This has been made possible
by a series of innovations in developing materials which exhibit features such as electromechanical/magneto-mechanical coupling and in establishing their fabrication processes. In many
of these devices one form of energy (say electrical) is converted into another (mechanical-e.g.,
force, vibration, displacement). Furthermore, many of the underlying phenomena are found to be
reciprocal, paving the way for fabricating both sensors and actuators with same materials.
Researchers world over have devised various ways to embed these components to
introduce smartness in a system. Originally introduced in bigger systems in the bulk form, this
science is increasingly leaning towards miniaturization with the popularization of micro
electromechanical systems (MEMS). One of the reasons for this is the stringent lightweight
constraints imposed on the system design. The use of MEMS in smart systems is so intensely
intertwined that these technologies often treated two faces of the same coin. The engineering of
smart systems and MEMS are areas for multi-disciplinary research, already laden with myriad
technological issues of their own. With the smart systems technology branching towards several
newer disciplines, it is essential and timely to consolidate the technological advances in selected
areas.
One of the application areas of strong potential is the market for wireless personal
communication devices which has expanded dramatically in the last two decades. The production
volume has increased manifold, and the power handling capacity required in these systems have
reduced considerably. In this context several micro-fabricated components including MEMS find
applications in many current and future microwave and millimeter wave communication
technologies. Apart from having the advantages with bulk production, and being miniaturized,
these can often lead to more efficient systems, compared to conventional ones.

SYNTHESIS OF BIOACTIVE HETEROCYCLES AND
THEIR IMPLICATIONS AS THERAPEUTIC AGENTS
Department of Studies in Chemistry,
University of Mysore, Manasagangotri, Mysore-570006, INDIA.
[email protected]
During the past twenty years, a multitude of novel bioactive heterocycles have been developed
and several of these are being considered as therapeutic agents for various diseases. In this
context, we have synthesized several small molecule comounds and checked for their efficacy as
antiangiogeneic, anti-leukemia and M1 receptor agonists and AChE inhibitors. We synthesized the
substituted imidazole and 1-benzhydryl-sulfonyl-piperazine derivatives and evaluated the
antineoplastic activity using a mouse mammary carcinoma (MMC) cells grown as ascites tumor in
mice. Our data suggest that the antitumor activity of the substituted imidazoles is due to
proapoprotic and antiangiogenic effect. Pro-apoptotic activity was due to activation of nucleases,
which degrades intranucleosomal fragments. Secondly, we synthesized some 3- (4-substituted-1piperidinyl)-6-halogeno-1,2-benzisoxazole
substituted-δ2-isoxazolines
and
hydrochlorides,
piperazine
derivatives
3-(2-butyl-4-chloro-1H-imidazolyl)and
found
that
1,2-benzisoxazole
heterocycle was an appropriate bioisosteric replacement for the benzyl functionality present in the
N-benzylpiperidine class of inhibitors for acetylcholinesterases.
Further we synthesized and
characterized several alkyl/aryl derivatives of arecoline thiazolidinones, arecoline emides and
arecoline morpholines as M1 receptor agonist and screened by several in vitro and in vivo
pharmacological studies. Novel derivatives of 5-(4-methyl-benzylidene)-thiazolidine-2,4-dione
and diazaspiro bicyclo hydantoin were synthesized and evaluated for their cell antiproliferation
activity by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay viable
human skin fibroblast cell line and carcinoma cell lines namely HeLa cells, HT-29 cells, MCF-7
cells, HepG-2 cells and human leukemia, K562 (chronic myelogenous leukemia) and CEM (T-cell
leukemia) cells respectively. Hydantoin derivatives possess a wide array of important biochemical
effects and interesting pharmacological properties and consequently are used to treat many
human diseases. This study was undertaken to examine the molecular mechanism that
determines the cell fate in response to DFH, DCH, DFHE and DCHE exposure in human leukemic
cell lines K562, Reh, CEM and 8E5. All the compounds exhibited dose and time dependent
cytotoxic effect. Cytotoxicity was determined using Trypan blue, MTT and LDH assay. Tritiated
thymidine assay in conjunction with cell cycle analysis suggest that these compounds inhibited
the growth of leukemic cells. The treatment of DFH, DCH, DFHE and DCHE induced an apoptotic
response, characterized by an increase of the sub-G1 fraction of cells, by cells with chromatin
condensation, DNA fragmentation. The early and late apoptosis was further quantified by dual
staining, annexin V/propidium iodide. Downregulation of PCNA and p-histone H3 confirm that the
31st Series : SPP : KSCST : 2007-2008
167
growth inhibition could be at the level of DNA replication. Our western blot results suggests that
DFH and DFHE induces apoptosis by activation of the intrinsic mitochondrial pathway such as
decreased level of antiapoptotic protein Bcl2, increased level of proapoptotic proteins Bad and
Bax, elevated levels of p53, activation and cleavage of caspase 9, caspase 3, PARP cleavage,
downregulation of DNA repair proteins like Ku70 and Ku80. To support our data, we have also
checked the expression of some of the cell cycle related and signaling proteins which are involved
in the regulation of apoptosis. Based on these results we discuss the mechanism of apoptosis
induced by DFH in K562 cells and DFHE in Reh cells and its implications in leukemia therapy.
DEVELOPMENT OF
CONJUGATED POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITES FOR
PHOTOCATALYSIS
Prof. M. Giridhar
Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore – 560 012
Solution combustion technique was used to synthesize a new TiO2 catalyst that exhibits superior
properties than the commercial catalyst. Some of its applications will be discussed initially. Next,
an heterogeneous conducting polymer composite, Poly (3-hexylthiophene) / TiO2 (P3HT/TiO2),
was synthesized. The photocatalytic activity of P3HT alone and the composite was investigated for
the first time by degrading a common dye under UV exposure. It was shown that the
photocatalytic activity of the nano-composites was higher compared to either the polymer or TiO2
alone. A simple mechanism was proposed to explain this observed synergetic effect. Next, we
investigate the uses of conjugated polymers for removal of dyes by adsorption. A method for the
selective removal of sulphonated dyes from aqueous dye solutions by using the chemical
interaction of dye molecules with polyaniline is reported. Polyaniline (PANI) emeraldine salt was
synthesized by chemical oxidation. Sulphonated dyes undergo chemical interactions with the
charged backbone of PANI leading to significant adsorption of the dyes. This phenomenon of
selective adsorption of the dyes by PANI has been reported for the first time and promises a
green method for removal of sulphonated organics from waste water. The adsorption of anionic
dyes causes the variation in electrical conductivity of PANI, indicating its potential as a
conductometric sensor for these dyes at very low concentration. The adsorbed dyes were
desorbed from the polymer by using a basic aqueous solution. The adsorption and desorption
kinetics of the dye in the presence of doped PANI were also determined.
