Project
Artificial intelligence-based techniques to monitor and maintain the quality of drinking water supplied to households

Artificial Intelligence based techniques to monitor and maintain the quality of drinking water supplied to households is the proposed invention. The proposed invention aims at reducing the water borne diseases by continuously monitoring the quality of water. The invention implements techniques of Artificial Intelligence with Internet of Things (IOT) to monitor and check the quality of water that is supplied to household for domestic purposes.

Project
Usage of wasted Printed Circuit Board (WPCB) as Fibre in Concrete

Reducing pollution and resolving waste management difficulties are only two of the many benefits of using printed circuit board (PCB) fibre in concrete, making it an innovative and radical idea in long-lasting concrete. E-waste fibre concrete is an alternative to standard concrete since it enhances the qualities of conventional concrete while reducing the amount of electronic trash thrown in natural environments. After non-metallic components have been extracted, this article explores the impact of employing a printed circui

Project
Usage of the waste printed circuit board (WPCB) as Fiber in Paver Block

The steadily rising volume of electronic waste poses a serious hazard to human health and the environment. It is estimated that India generates two million tons of e-waste annually, with a further, as-yet-undisclosed amount coming in from elsewhere. The project's goal is to reduce the price of paver blocks and tiles as compared to traditional concrete paver blocks and tiles by replacing cement with e-waste and fly ash. Paving techniques, tactics, and tons in addition to the pre-engineered buildings and pavements as a whole a

Project
UTILISATION OF WASTE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD POWDER AS REPLACEMENT FOR FINE AGGREGATE IN BRICK

An innovative method to address electronic waste challenges by repurposing discarded printed circuit boards (PCBs) in the construction industry. The invention pertains to the grinding of PCBs to produce a fine powder that replaces or supplements the traditional fine aggregates, such as sand, in brick-making. These resultant bricks potentially offer enhanced properties, including improved thermal insulation and heightened resistance to certain environmental factors. The process not only provides an alternative disposal method
