Project Name : Environmental Renovation through Sustainable Practices
Theme Name : Environmental Issue and Concerns
Looking at the environmental degradation today, the million dollar question is will humans survive? So keeping in view the future we have hereby incorporated various sustainable practices to prevent further degradation. These are as follows:
1. HVLAC System – Automated sensors to control heating and lightning are used to minimize wastage of electricity.
2. Piezoelectric effect (Discotheque) – Electricity produced in response to mechanical stress by using piezoelectric material like bone, DNA, proteins etc can be used in footpaths, airports etc.
3. Green Concrete – Made from rice husk, ash, micro-silica cheap and made from waste products helps the building in energy conservation, lowers the costs, reduces maintenance etc.
4. Transparent Cement – Allows daylight flood in the room using light material which allows light to enter in the building.
5. Himawari solar lighting system – System of lens is used along with optic fiber devices. It responds speedily to the changes in the weather, it is UV free, gentle to the eyes and skin. It can be stored in capacitors and can be used during night time.
6. Red mud Terrace farming – Red mud is an insoluble waste produced from the extraction of aluminum from bauxite. It is highly alkaline and poses health and environmental risks. Gypsum and bacteria are used to treat it to promote more vegetation.
7. Biolamp – Converts the CO2 into O2 and also helps in the conversion of algal biomass used for the production of O2 to produce electricity.
8. De – Desertification – Bacillus pasteurizing bacteria produces certain enzymes which binds the sandy soil and stops further erosion of soil.
9. Antibody Based Bio-sensors – Detects marine pollutants like oil (PAH) which is sensed by the protein antibodies produced from the infected mice (Cancer) and is attached in the boat.
10. Bio-solar Breakthrough – During Photosynthesis PS I and PS II from green algae can be bioengineered to artificially interact with a semi conductor (Zeric oxide) and produces electricity.
11. Green Habit – Houses can be made from bricks and mixture of straw dust and cow dung. To make environment cleaner, greener and cheaper. It is antibacterial coolant and light in weight.
12. Plastic Road – 3% to 4% of waste plastic (polythene) is mixed with bitumen which increases the melting point of bitumen and makes the road to retain its flexibility during winters. It acts as a binding agent and can withstand high temperature.
