Investigation and prediction on emissions and performance of CI engine employing binary and ternary blends with Karanja oil, used cooking oil, and Dunaliella salina oil.

Massive consumption of fossil fuels and alarming environmental degradation are motivating researchers to learn about alternative fuels. Straight vegetable oils are an alternative to fossil fuels to meet the standards. Microalgae is also a viable carbon-neutral alternative to depleting conventional fuel sources, a solution to the industrial requirement of organic consumables and an option for a green and sustainable economy for biofuels.

Interrupted time series segmented regression analysis for detecting waterborne disease outbreaks by syndromic surveillance.

Introduction: Pathogens can enter the drinking water supply and cause gastroenteritis outbreaks. Such events can affect many people in a short time, making them a high risk for public health. In Australia, the Victoria State Government Department of Health is deploying a syndromic surveillance system for drinking water contamination events.

Prediction of effluent quality in ICEAS-sequential batch reactor using feedforward artificial neural network.

It is highly essential that municipal wastewater is treated before its discharge and reuse in order to meet the standard requirements for safe marine life and for farming and industries. It is beneficial to use reclaimed water, since availability of fresh water is inadequate. An investigation was conducted on the Jamnagar Municipal Corporation Sewage Treatment Plant (JMC-STP) to develop a feedforward artificial neural network (FF-ANN) model.
