How to get safe drinking water from Sweage

Toilets in the developing countries are most commonly located on pits. Septic trucks are hired to pump out the sewage and carry it away. In most cases dumping sites for sewage is a river, bay, stream, ocean etc., This sweage contaminating our environment and natural resources, causing people to get sick. Improper sanitation also creates economic stress to the countries. More than 2.5 billion people lack access to safe drinking water. Each day more than 8,40000 people die due waterborne diseases. Simple solution to these problems is Omni Processor. An idea given by Bill and Melinda Gates Foundations. This technique not only treat sweage but also turns sweage into pure water and electricity. No fuel is needed to operate this plant, as it uses dry sweage as a fuel. The goal of the Gates Foundation is to improve the quality of life for people around the world. Over 2.5 billion people around the world do not have access to safe sanitation, which is why Bill Gates is working with a ...

Jio Giga Fiber

Jio Giga Fiber: An initiative that is expected to deliver ultra-fast fiber network, with broadband speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second. GigaFiber is a Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) broadband service offered to the users via fixed lines. GigaFiber's wall-to-wall FTTH service means that the walls won't obstruct the internet connectivity. Its fiber to the home (FTTH), also called "fiber to the premises" (FTTP), is the installation and use of optical fiber from a central point directly to individual buildings such as residences, apartment buildings and businesses to provide unprecedented high-speed Internet access. Jio launched Jio Giga Fibre on 15 August 2018 which offers high speed broadband, landline and DTH services at reasonable prices. Jio Gigafiber Preview offer has been announced by Reliance. As part of this offer, you will get 100GB of data per month for the first three months with a broadband speed of 100Mbps speed. JioGigaFiber beats the rest because of its u...

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launches PSLV C-44

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launches PSLV C-44 with Microsat R, a military application satellite, and Kalamsat, a 10cm cubesat made by students, at 11.37pm on Thursday from the first launch pad at Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota. This is first flight with a new variant of PSLV called PSLV-DL with two strap-ons, each carrying 12.2-tonne of solid propellent. The launch is PSLV’s 46th flight which injected a 740kg imaging satellite for military applications into orbit with precision. Congratulating the team for the successful mission, Isro chairman K Sivan said this was the first that PSLV was “flown to the lowest orbit.” PS4 is the smallest of the stages in size with a height of 2.5m and a diameter of 1.34m carrying 1.6 tonne propellent. With two liquid engines applying a thrust of 7.6kN each, PS4 is responsible for the correct injection of the payloads into their respective desired orbits.

Camera innovation

Camera innovation : A new camera innovation from Leica that can combines image capture with 3D laser mapping, is being used for the first time to capture UK cities.  Bluesky International has used the Leica CityMapper, the world’s first hybrid airborne sensor combining vertical and oblique imagery with 3D laser scanning, to capture major cities throughout the UK. It is the first time this technology has been used commercially in the UK to this level. The captured city data is currently available to Bluesky and Leica Geosystems, part of Hexagon, it constituent components of vertical orthorectified aerial imagery, oblique photographs and LiDAR point cloud data. Plans are in place to also include the imagery in Hexagon’s HxGN Content Program in the near future.  Using the CityMapper, Bluesky has mapped parts of London, Manchester and Birmingham as well as Brighton, Bristol, Cambridge, Norwich, Nottingham and Oxford. It intends to increase its coverage by capturing ...
