Abstract: Current ages of science and technology running towards the control of environmental degradation and improvement of energy to meet the rush of rising demand. On the other hand bearing in mind the breeding consumptions of crude reservoirs are across the world. Developing countries like India depend heavily on crude oil import of about thousand barrels per day. Transportation sector consumes the major portion of imports, finding a suitable fuel alternative to diesel is an urgent need. In this regards focus has been gradually shifting towards energy recovery from waste materials which can solve both the problems. One of the major wastes in the automobile sector is automobile tyres. These have an adverse impact on the environment if they are not disposed off properly. Further, tyres are a source of high grade energy hence its improper disposal means wastage of energy. Several methods have been developed to extract energy from waste tyres. One of them is pyrolysis of tyre which produces Tyre

EFFECT OF GRAIN SIZE ON BELT FINISHING PROCESS OF HARDENED STEEL PARTS

Abstract: Belt finishing of hardened steel parts begins to integrate the automotive and the aeronautic industry as an alternative to classical superfinishing process. However his practice in industry is always uncertain because research in this topic is at the beginning. This paper is a contribution to the understanding of belt finishing mechanisms by using an experimental approach to study especially the effect of grain size on roughness and on specific energy. It was demonstrated that with the increase of grain size the roughness increases while the specific energy decreases. However the grain size must be chosen strictly to have a good surface topography. Moreover with small grains, friction and ploughing is larger than cutting and specific energy is very important. With large grains specific energy is small and spent essentially in cutting.
