The anerobic bacteria decompose the organic matter into sludge and methane, a gaseous fuel with a good calorific value. A number of organic wastes are suited to this method of methane generation: animal refuse such as cow dung, municipal and sewage wastes, vegetable wastes, human wastes and algae. Out of all these, for many a developing country with large population of cattle, cattle dung holds high promise. In this paper, I shall concentrate on the methane fuel economy based on cattle dung.","PeriodicalId":231350,"journal":{"name":"IEEE CSIT Newsletter","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1976-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132134338","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}

The reviewer concludes that the shortcomings of the articles appear to be due in part to an effort by Spectrum to publish the material as soon as possible; yet, Spectrum has been in no great hurry to air the issues raised by other knowledgeable nuclear critics (e.g., Gofman, Tamplin, Ford, Kendall, Alfven, et. al.) over the past five years. Editor Christiansen conceded that the articles do no more than \"open the door to further, substantive discussion of the complex issue of nuclear power implementation.\" It is to be hoped that Spectrum will now follow through and provide the thorough, substantive discussion that is so long overdue.","PeriodicalId":231350,"journal":{"name":"IEEE CSIT Newsletter","volume":"241 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1976-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116707719","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}

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), a U.S. Government body, is one of the truly significant products of the somewhat amorphous consumer movement. I speak from personal experience with the CPSC; and as an engineer and a Professor of Electrical Engineering. I offer the following account of one engineer's effort to follow his conscience and look out for the interests of society, and his own interests as well. This may sound oddly reminiscent of a soap opera, with never ending complications surrounding Young Doctor Malone. Indeed, that appraisal is very close to the truth; with all parties — the good guys, the bad guys, the doers, and the talkers — all viewing themselves as Young Doctor Malone, who somehow must correct the ills of society and, in particular, the ills of power lawn mowers, which is what this article is all about.","PeriodicalId":231350,"journal":{"name":"IEEE CSIT Newsletter","volume":"38 7-8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1976-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121003789","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}
