It has variety of applications like purification of drinking water,air purifications, gas purification, chromatographic separation, in agricultural feedstock, in treatment of waste water and inmedical field for the treatment of poisoning or overdoses, kidney health, intestinal gas, diarrhoea and oral health. These applications of activated carbon do not only take care of environment but also the human health. The main property of activated carbon behind all these applications is “Adsorption”. Due to the varied applications of activated carbon, it has very high demand. But, at the same time it is very important to prepare cost effective activated carbon as the commercial activated carbon available in market is costlier. Hence, the production of low cost activated carbon from different natural raw materials is the need of present and future. This study reviews the different methods for preparation of Activated carbon from different natural raw materials by using activating agents, method of activation and condition of activation. The aim of this paper is to use low cost and naturally available raw materials as a precursor for preparation of activated carbon which can take care of environmental pollution as well as human health.","PeriodicalId":194611,"journal":{"name":"2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ADVANCED MATERIALS BEHAVIOUR AND CHARACTERIZATION: ICAMBC_2021","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130531861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A deep introspection has been made to find the doping effect on its structural, micro structural and electrical microstructure which consequently changes its dielectric, ferroelectric, electrical and magnetic, multiferroic and other properties. A systematic analysis has been made to find how the doping at both A and B site of its ABO3 perovskite structure causes a compositional driven structural change resulting in improved multiferroic properties. In this review attempt has been made to reveal the physics behind the major issues in BFO like single phase preparation, oxygen ion vacancy, leakage current, suppressed latent magnetization in spin cycloid, low value of electrical polarization, low magnetoelectrical coupling, microwave properties and how these issues have been addressed so far by modifying BFO. Many theoretical and experimental investigations on BFO, modified BFO and its composite establish a competitive mechanism due to which improved ferroelectricity is achieved at cost of magnetism or improved magnetism is achieved at the cost of ferroelectricity. Thus, the desirable multiferroic properties have not yet achieved completely to make the material device ready. Finally, a detailed analysis have been made to explore all possible applications of these materials taking into all the physical parameters achieved so far in these materials to make them truly multifunctional and on the basis of this study, we have proposed how to modify the BFO to achieve a new generation multifunctional material.","PeriodicalId":194611,"journal":{"name":"2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ADVANCED MATERIALS BEHAVIOUR AND CHARACTERIZATION: ICAMBC_2021","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122686858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, such deep sedimentary rocks in the presence of water and brine saturation undergo degradation in their mechanical properties – elastic modulus and toughness. Therefore, it is very important to understand and quantify the degree of degradation of mechanical properties of those rocks under varied brine concentration. For this purpose, a detailed experimental work is carried out in this paper. The specimens are saturated under varying brine (0% NaCl to 30% NaCl) and water of different degree of saturation (0% DOS to 100% DOS) saturated sandstone and siltstone rocks, respectively. The rock samples namely, sandstone and siltstone material used in this work collected from Gosford, New South Wales and Eidsvold, Queensland, respectively in Australia. The mechanical properties, namely elastic modulus, E and fracture toughness, KIC estimated using Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) and Three-Point Bending (TPB) tests, respectively. From the powdered X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, the sandstone material mineralogical composition has 65.5% quartz, 27.6% kaolinite, 5.4% montmorillonite and 1.4% anatase. Similarly, the siltstone material mineralogical composition has 35% quartz, 53% kaolinite, 8% muscovite, 3% alunite and 1% other minerals.","PeriodicalId":194611,"journal":{"name":"2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ADVANCED MATERIALS BEHAVIOUR AND CHARACTERIZATION: ICAMBC_2021","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127131117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study; assessment of groundwater changes is done over the Krishna river basin using the water balance method (WBM) & water table fluctuation method (WTFM) using IMERG-GPM, GLDAS2.1, WRIS, & APSDMA data for the year 2018-2019. Rainfall data from IMERG-GPM & WRIS have a close relationship as indicated by R2 of 0.91. Evapotranspiration & runoff derived from GLDAS2.1 shows a close relationship with WRIS & APSDMA data with R2 as 0.9 and 0.56, respectively. This shows the good reliability of evapotranspiration & runoff data from GLDAS 2.1 datasets over an entire region. The estimated recharge using WTFM using WRIS data is compared with recharge estimated using IMERG-GPM & GLDAS2.1 data to check the reliability of WBM during monsoon months of 2018-2019, which shows a close relationship indicated by R2 as 0.52. The estimated average groundwater recharge over the monsoon months for WTFM and WBM was 127.1 mm, 40.41 mm respectively with an average rainfall of 138 mm. The percentage of rainwater recharge over the Krishna river basin is 32.8, 39.17, 30.25, and 6.9% for June, July, August, and September 2018 respectively. Results show that the basin having a positive water balance of 14692.3 MCM yr−1 during the year 2018-2019.

If any power failure is occur in the system then it takes some time to switch on the generator section to continue with the existing system. So for fulfilling this condition Automatic Mains Failure (AMF) control panel is needed for self-shifting of existing supply which is coming from distribution substation to DG set which is used as back up during the disturbances from MSEB.
