    Conference on Decentralized Biogas Digesters

    Conference on Decentralized Biogas Digesters in November 2014

    04 July 2014

    In light of rapidly rising costs associated with energy supply and waste disposal and increasing concerns with environmental quality degradation, conversion of organic wastes to energy is a more economically viable solution. Bioconversion technologies such as anaerobic digestion (AD) are more suitable compared to thermochemical conversion technologies such as combustion and gasification. AD is a biological process in which bacteria break down organic matter with biogas as the end product. AD is a promising technology which could effectively address the problem of waste disposal yielding valuable outputs like biogas and fertilizers. This conference will focus on the various anaerobic digestion technologies available and the methods to manage the slurry coming out of the digesters. This conference is organized to bring together researchers, scientists and professionals working in the field of biogas production so as to share experiences and to update technologies and to provide a platform for strong collaborative network among researchers, scientists, industrialists and end users. The conference to be held in Goa will provide a platform for the participants to share new approaches, knowledge and findings on biogas production and slurry management which are necessary for pollution control.

    The Braille Dicta-teacher - An innovative endeavor by Sanskriti and Aman

    29 May 2014

    Sanskriti Dawle and Aman Srivastava of BITS Pilani, K K Birla Goa Cmapus have made their university proud by initiating an innovative project “ Project Mudra ” –a Braille Dicta-teacher .

    This project is so insightful to Braille learning that a user simply has to say a letter / number and the tactile interface denotes the corresponding Braille character. It works in two modes : browse and auto.

    Mudra aims to be a low cost Braille learning device and Sanskriti and Aman are now in the process of testing the device to check whether it can be produced at a mass scale.
