A greenhouse technology allows farmers to optimize the use of land. In this paper computer based control and monitoring system is designed and tested to automate sprinkler irrigation by taking the data from the sensors and purifying the air through the smart SMOG house. This system is setup to handle several crops by using sensors and controlled by micro controller to manage every environmental parameter required for the good growth of plants and system periodically generates inside greenhouse. The sensor used in this system are GSM, GPRS, Micro-Controller, Wi-Fi based mobile system. And it is accessed remotely where ever needed. This system will not only work for environment cleaning but it will also help the farmers to grow their crops with better growth.

GENDER AUDIT OF U.N. AUTONOMOUS COLLEGE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, ADASPUR, CUTTACK – A MEANS TO BRING GENDER BALANCE IN THE INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER LEARNING

This paper examines the basic problems of learning English as second language for the senior secondary high school learners in the rural areas of Odisha. A special reference has been given to Kantapada Block of Cuttack district in Odisha. Learning of English has become a great challenge for them in the overcrowded class room. Mostly, they are incompetent in speaking skill of the target language. They feel uneasy to convey their message in English language. Even they don’t show their willingness to communicate inside the class room in English language. They always use odia language in the speaking classroom. So this study has provided various techniques to improve their willingness to communicate in English language.

Adipic acid was synthesized by the oxidation of cyclohexene using 30% hydrogen peroxide in a microemulsion in the presence of sodium vanadate as catalyst. The proposed green process is environmentally friendly since catalyst and surfactant are recycled and pure adipic acid is produced in high yield (70% to 79%). Microemulsions are used as a “green solvent” and give a better contact between the phases. Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate was used as a surfactant for the generation of the microemulsion since it enables the use of harmful organic solvents and phasetransfer catalysts to be avoided. Optimised operating conditions (temperature, reaction time, separation process) have been defined and applied to evaluate the industrial practicability. The main interest of the present work is the easy recovery of pure adipic acid and the reuse of the reaction media (surfactant and catalyst). This shows promise for developing a future green industrial process that will enable greenhouse gas emissions (N2O), among others, to be reduced.

To develop a solar power-based smart irrigation system using Internet of Things (IoT) to reduce human effort and improve productivity. Irrigation is defined as the artificial application of water to land or soil. The irrigation process can be used for the cultivation of agricultural crops during the span of inadequate rainfall and for maintaining landscapes. An automatic irrigation system does the operation of a system without requiring the manual involvement of people. The smart irrigation system does the work quite efficiently and with a positive impact on the place where it is installed. Once it is installed in the agricultural field, the water distribution to crops and nurseries becomes easy and doesn’t require any human support to perform the operations permanently. Application of IoT is proving beneficial for monitoring renewable energy generation. This application of IoT uses system based on Arduino to monitor parameters of the solar panel. The solar panel is monitored by the system continuously and the power output is transmitted over the internet to the IoT Network. It now uses an effective Interface to display these solar panel parameters to the user and it also alerts user when the outcome falls underneath the cut-off points specified. The automatic irrigation system on sensing soil moisture project is intended for the development of an irrigation system that switches submersible pumps on or off by using relays to perform this action on sensing the moisture content of the soil. The main advantages of using this irrigation system are that it reduces human interference and ensures proper irrigation.
