Project Highlights Vacuryogen T8, a students' team from IIT Madras, Chennai chose transportation as their sector. Global CO2 emission by shipping transport is 17% or nearly 4.5 % of the total greenhouse gases emitted. Fuel Oil consumption for electricity generation per reefer container: 1562 L (fuel oil) CO2 emission – 4139 kg (CO2) per year [...]
Project Highlights Vent Tech I5, a students' team from Loyola ICAM College of Engg & Technology, Chennai did the project in Industries sector. In current AC systems, where fresh air is required, e.g. Basements and cold storage facilities, the fresh air dilution process is constant. The constant fresh air is a waste and we have [...]
Project Highlights TurboT I1, a students' team from Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering, Karnataka chose Industries as their sector. Within the industrial sector, maximizing day-lighting is one of the most efficient ways of reducing power consumption for lighting in large commercial /industrial buildings. Hence they came up with an idea of auto-adjusting and positioning of light-sensitive roof [...]
Project Highlights EcoStar I4, a students' team from KCG College of Technology, Chennai did the project in Industries sector. In the industrial sector, around 30- 40% of heat in I.C engine is wasted from exhaust. This results in loss of power and decrease in efficiency of a vehicle. Hence the team came up with Exhaust Powered [...]
Project Highlights Grawy I6, a startup from Karnataka did the project in Industries sector. Clean Energy is not sufficient in the world. Ever increasing CO 2 emissions are causing major damage to the environment. Wave Energy is extremely underutilized. Hence it was intended to build a machine that harnesses wave energy without harming the ocean [...]
Project Highlights STEP Recoder I7, a students’ team from IIT Madras, Chennai chose industrial sector for doing the project. Electroplating industry is a high carbon footprint and high water footprint industry. This industry consumes about 18000 tonnes of chemicals every year in India and spews more than 50% of this as waste along with water. [...]
Project Highlights Solarize I12, a students’ team from CSIR, Chennai chose industrial sector for their CZC project. In India, 2% (1 million tonne per year) of the oil is consumed for low temperature industrial process heating, spending around 30 billion INR. This can be easily replaced by renewable energy based solution to reduce carbon footprint. [...]
Project Highlights Regulators T6, a students’ team from SSN Engineering College, Chennai chose transportation as their sector. In the transportation sector, availability of bus and travelling is a major problem. Some buses in a route are extremely crowded and other buses run with not even half its capacity. This disparity is caused because of poor [...]
Project Highlights Vision X - T9, a students’ team from PES University, Karnataka chose transportation as their sector. Owing to lack of sustainable energy infrastructure, people are becoming aware of electric vehicles and affordability of solar energy systems is also possible these days. Clearly, there is a necessity for a truly “green” solution that provides [...]
Project Highlights Innovative Building and Cooling Systems U2, a students’ team from IIT Madras, Chennai selected urban areas/cities as their sector for doing the project. According to IEO 2013, building sector consumes one fifth of the total global energy consumption, and India resembles the same. In India, more than 60% of all the buildings projected [...]
