AutoBike

AutoBike: An automatic motorbike
-Harman Shah Singh

This thing is called an autobike......automatic motorbike.....
It basically uses the concept of EMI and the air currents to self sustain a motorbike......
We'll require a partially charged battery, a dc generator,and a vacuum pump.....
The battery is used to slightly move an iron coil between the magnetic poles.....by virtue of eletromagnetic induction,the coil can keep up the rotation and this motion is used to charge up the battery....
The battery is in turn connected to a vacuum pump placed in sucha way as to suck air in the backward direction......this suction can help take care of the air friction in the coil and ensure ita constant rotation......moreover the battery and the coil movement can be used to move the wheels by connecting the wheel axle with the coil plus the battery just to ensure an appreciable speed which cant be achieved with just a coil-axle coupling.....

Vermi-Compost: A solution for organic urban waste

Vermi-Compost: A solution for organic urban waste
-Jaspreet Singh Anand

To solve the garbage menace to some extent in metropolitan, we all gotta put our hands together and contribute towards.

The main point is to segregate the organic and other waste in different bins. The earthworms(special species) have a wonderful miracle in their digestive system. They eat up the food and give a nitrogen rich and nutrient full excreta. The excreta is homogeneous, finely graded and a perfect manure for plants and fields. The organic waste includes, kitchen waste, paper, garden waste, non-spicy cooked food etc. It takes about 30 days, for worms to degrade the food if given in small pieces to them.

This whole process of making manure is called vermicompost.

For stats our organic waste constitutes 30% of total waste which can totally be reduced to ZERO and converted into a 100% useful product there and then it is generated.

Modified Cycle Rickshaw

Modified Cycle Rickshaw

-Joanna Shruti Sundharam

Using the dynamo principle, the rickshaw puller can generate electricity and store it in a small battery. After a day's work he can use this battery to power a light fan in his home. 

Implementation details: Implementation would require a dynamo set, a battery and rickshaw. 

Applications: A rickshaw puller can use the battery at his home. Another application could be to use the electricity to run his rickshaw itself. 

Improved R/O system

"Optimization of the average R/O water purification system." 
-Joanna Shruti Sundharam

The normal RO systems produce 4 times the waste, of the water it purifies. For 1 litre of pure water, 4 litres are wasted. In RO systems, water pressure is used to force water molecules through a very fine membrane leaving the contaminants behind. Purified water is collected from the "clean" or “permeate” side of the membrane, and water containing the concentrated contaminants is flushed down the drain from the "contaminated" or “concentrate” side. 

Implementation details: Zero waste RO units are available, however problematic, as they can re-inject the concentrate waste water back into the water feeding the RO thus forcing the RO to work harder and shortening its service life. The contaminated water can be treated in such a way that it would be suitable for other purposes like 'dish-washing' etc.  

Solar-Powered-Wastewater-Treatment-Plant

Solar-Powered-Wastewater-Treatment-Plant 

-Joanna Shruti Sundharam

The design is very simple. The heat from the sun rays will cause the water to evaporate, and due to the inclined glass surface the clean water will get collected in one end of the structure. 

Implementation details: An airtight chamber will have to constructed which must be at a location that is exposed to sunlight for the better part of the day. Rooftops will be ideal locations. The major problem will be that the speed of operation will be slow, as it would take a lot of time for the water to heat up enough to evaporate. 

Applications: Once constructed, the plant will be a low maintenance, and will supply clean water for a variety of purposes. Evaporation will make the water quite clean, though not potable.
