Hybrid Tractors
(2014-01-19)Our team performed an in depth research on this topic to identify the existing problems of the diesel fuel tractors. Manufacturing companies did not think of changing the conventional tractors as they have neglected the ... -
Hydrodynamic Modelling of Sharjah lagoons (UAE) under Climate Changes
(2022-04)Global warming has become a growing issue, especially because it is causing a rise in sea level which in turn has contributed to increased inundation areas and flooding risks. More specifically, the sea level in the Arabian ... -
Hydroelectric Dams
(2015-02-01)Energy consumption has increased exponentially since the advent of electricity. To satisfy consumer needs, there needs to come an increase in production of energy. Seeing as the earth is covered in approximately 70% water ... -
Hydrogen Fueled Home Generators
(2016-11)Burning fossil fuel, such as coal, oil and natural gases contribute to pollution and global warming due to the emission of carbon dioxide. 33% of green house emissions are due to electricity generation, which is the highest ... -
Hydrogen Fueled Vehicles
(2014-01-19)The future of energy once fossil fuels run out is in the hands of renewable sources. Our project is about Hydrogen powered vehicles and how hydrogen can be used viably as a fuel in cars. The project focuses on the problems ... -
Hydrogen fusion for sustainable energy
(2016-11)The universal demand for energy is increasing in modern society. We rely on energy for almost in everything in our lives.This energy may be generated from fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels are insufficient and harmful ... -
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) removal using schist packings in industrial biofilter applications
(2015-01)Expanded schist can be a promising biofilter media for Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) removal in industrial applications. In this work, H2S removal performance of a biofilter packed with expanded schist is compared with a patented ... -
Hydrogen Sulphide Removal Using a Novel Biofilter Media
(2010-02)Air emissions from waste treatment plants often consist of a combination of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and odors. Hydrogen sulfide is one of the major odorous gases present in the waste emissions coming from municipal ... -
Hydrogen Supplement Co-combustion with Diesel in 2 Compression Ignition Engine
(Elsevier, 2015-10)The present work investigates experimentally the behavior of compression ignition engine while boosting the combustion by enriching air-intake manifold with hydrogen supplement at the atmospheric condition. The study reports ... -
Hydrogen: The Future Fuel
(2016-11)The world consumes a total of 94 million barrels of oil per day. The global demand for oil is increasing exponentially while the remaining supply has been decreasing at a faster rate as shown in Figure 1. Burning of fossil ... -
