Various spatial environmental factors have an effect on this disease. Several attempts have been made to review the use of GIS and remote sensing to predict vector-borne disease transmission. The analysis of the correlation between the environment and malaria are rare. The present study gives us information about the past and helps us to determine the future role of GIS and remote sensing for the control of vector-borne diseases. Remote sensing technology allows the user to extract measurements on a local level and thus generate spatial patterns which would otherwise not be visible. This system helps us to find a relation between malaria, different land types and the vegetation index. The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is an indicator used to predict the live vegetation that is present in an area and the land type of the location selected. Environmental information for monitoring malaria and thus providing an early warning will be possible through this study. It will provide information as to not only where, but also when malaria is most likely to occur. Thus, decision makers can select various procedures such as nets treated with insecticides, drugs and draining of stagnant water by observing the graph generated by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient which will depict which area needs more treatment against the disease.","PeriodicalId":270099,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Technologies for Sustainable Development (ICTSD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131581300","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 resulting detection gives rise to a reliable output source which can guide the user beyond the limits of danger.

Overall 61% gain was recorded when PCM was used, where as a 34% nocturnal and 64% gain in the day time distillate was recorded. The daily experimental uncertainty was approximated to 16%. The water quality has shown a good agreement with the standards as proposed by WHO and BIS.

Normally a patient is sent to pathological laboratories for blood extraction to quantify the actual urea percentage. Although this method is accurate, it requires a lot of time and reagents. It also involves the fear of infection during the extraction of blood. The method described in this manuscript gives a simple technique based on RF response of urea in the human tissue. In this paper, laboratory samples of various urea percentages were prepared and their responses were measured using a RF dielectric loss cell. The setup consists of a signal generator and a spectrum analyzer connected in scalar network mode to measure the RF response from 10MHz to 500MHz. The results show that there is a linear relation between the dielectric loss and the percentage of urea in the sample.","PeriodicalId":270099,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Technologies for Sustainable Development (ICTSD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115146782","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}

Greywater (sullage) is the component of domestic waste water which does not contain the toilet effluent. This study aims at treatment of greywater for non-potable purpose, focusing on a non biological treatment technology which is simple, cheap and of portable nature thus having minimum maintenance. Characterization of mixed domestic sullage was done as an initial part of the study. The COD, BOD, TSS, Oil & Grease and Turbidity concentration was found out be 2134, 634, 900, 2309.5 mg/L and 1814 NTU respectively. The primary reason for these high values was gauged to be due to high concentration of cooking oil and detergents in the sample. Based on literature review, a grey water treatment system consisting of coagulation followed by sedimentation, adsorption, filtration and ion exchange is proposed so as to bring the concentration of contaminants upto non potable standards.","PeriodicalId":270099,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Technologies for Sustainable Development (ICTSD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123781164","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}
