Abstract: This paper deals with the electrochemical degradation of sugarcane based sugar mill waste water (SMW). The studies on removal of COD of SMW were investigated by using two liter capacity electrolytic batch reactor. Effect of current density on the performance of two electrodes viz. stainless steel and aluminium has been reported in the study. The study was performed by passing 1.67 and 3 amp current through above electrodes. Applied voltage, COD removal efficiency as a function of current density for SS and Al electrodes are observed. Likewise optimal current density as a function of surface area to volume was observed. From this study it is found that CD of 25 A/m2 providing a maximum COD removal of 54.55% having SA/V ratio of 0.06 m2/m3 with ET=20 min was consider appropriate treatment condition with aluminium electrode

Abstract: Classifier device is one of the most important parts of the coal fired power plants. Increasing the performance of the classifier is important to help reduce the emissions and increase the fuel efficiency. The project is involved in studying the flow characteristics in a 1/8 size model of an industrial classifier device. It is assumed that the pneumatic coal particles would follow the same path as the air particles and achieve the same velocities as the air particles. Tangential velocity of the swirling flow and the static pressure are measured at two perpendicular planes, and five different diametric locations are measured at each plane. All the measurements are taken for three inlet air velocities, and for each inlet velocity, three different vane angles are used. Based on the measured results, suggestions are made to improve the balance of the air flow, and for further investigations and improvements.
