Modeling the Dynamics of the Energy, Environment, & Poverty Nexus: A Study of Biogas Unit Diffusion in Andhra Pradesh, India

نویسنده

  • John Peipert
چکیده

 Households in rural India depend on traditional fuels – primarily fuelwood-for meeting their daily energy needs.  Fuelwood combustion creates emissions that pose a significant threat to human health and ecological wellbeing.  In times of scarcity, fuelwood dependence can cause inefficiencies in household economy.  Foundation for Ecological Security (FES), a rural development NGO in India, disseminates biogas units as a more efficient, emission-reducing cooking technology.

MHD ‎r‎otating heat and mass transfer free convective flow past an exponentially accelerated isothermal plate with fluctuating mass ‎diffusion

In this paper, we have considered the problem of rotating, magnetohydrodynamic heat and mass transfer by free convective flow past an exponentially accelerated isothermal vertical plate in the presence of variable mass diffusion. While the temperature of the plate is constant, the concentration at the plate is considered to be a linear function with respect to time t. The plate is assumed to be...

Study on an Existing PV/Wind Hybrid System Using Biomass Gasifier for Energy Generation

Untapped pine needles with high potential for energy generation in the hilly area are not only a waste of resource but also increase the chance of environmental hazards as forest fires and GHG emission. This study is conducted to propose a new hybrid system (PV/Wind/Biomass) using abundant pine needle resource as a replacement of existing roof-mounted PV/wind hybrid system and analyse the feasi...

Phosphorylation of Staphylococcus aureus Protein-Tyrosine Kinase Affects the Function of Glucokinase and Biofilm Formation

Background: When Staphylococcus aureus is grown in the presence of high concentration of external glucose, this sugar is phosphorylated by glucokinase (glkA) to form glucose-6-phosphate. This product subsequently enters into anabolic phase, which favors biofilm formation. The presence of ROK (repressor protein, open reading frame, sugar kinase) motif, phosphate-1 and -2 sites, and tyrosine kina...
