This paper discusses the concept of a Microcontroller based wireless turn light indication system for trolley of tractor. This methodology avails the advanced technology; people try to make use of wireless technologies in different role. In this system uses the IR sensor, transmitter, receiver and micro controller. Main heart of the system is RF Module. It has two parts RF transmitter and RF receiver. The IR sensors use to detect steering wheel movement and gives signal to Encoder. HT12E are used for encoding and HT12D used for decoding the data. The 4-bit data is converted via HT12E encoder IC. Assign serial data to RF transmitter. At the Receiver side, receiver receive the serial data and this data is sent to HT12D decoder IC which converts into parallel data. Use a micro controller and relay channel to control the indicator signal. The proposed paper aimed to detect the steering direction by IR sensors and turn on/off the left and right. vehicle indicators based on the position of the steering wheel read. This switching is done wireless, avoiding bulky wiring in the vehicle. Automatic turn signal control protects users from accidents and driving safety
Stimuli-Responsive Injectable Polymeric Implants (SIPI) for Sustained Drug Delivery in Chronic Disease Management
Chronic diseases require sustained drug release systems to ensure therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance. This study focuses on the formulation and characterization of SIPI-based (StimuliResponsive Injectable Polymeric Implants) for long-term drug release in chronic disease management. SIPI implants, designed using biocompatible and biodegradable polymers, respond to physiological stimuli to achieve controlled and prolonged drug delivery. The formulation process involves polymer selection, drug loading optimization, and in-vitro release kinetics evaluation. Characterization techniques, including Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and in-vitro biodegradation studies, are utilized to assess the physicochemical properties, stability, and release profile of the implants. The developed system demonstrates sustained drug release over extended periods, minimizing dosing frequency and improving therapeutic outcomes. The findings suggest that SIPI-based implants hold significant potential in managing chronic diseases, offering an innovative approach to enhancing patient adherence and treatment efficac
Synthesis and Characterization of Composite Eco-Bricks from Waste Plastic, Foundry Sand, and Boiler Ash: A Novel Approach to Sustainable Construction Materials
The exponential generation of plastic waste, foundry waste sand (WFS), and coal boiler ash presents a dual challenge of environmental degradation and resource management. This study investigates the feasibility of manufacturing composite eco-bricks by integrating these three industrial waste streams as primary constituents. Bricks were synthesized using a waste material proportion of 46:46:8 (plastic waste: foundry sand: boiler ash) and subjected to comprehensive laboratory characterization including compressive strength testing, water absorption analysis, melting point assessment, and mortar bonding evaluation. Results demonstrated a compressive strength of 8.66 N/mm², representing a 148% improvement over conventional bricks and exceeding the minimum threshold of 3.5 N/mm² specified by Indian Standards (IS 1077:1992). Water absorption was significantly lower than conventional burnt clay bricks, indicating superior durability characteristics. The bricks exhibited successful adhesion with specialized AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) block bonding agents, confirming structural viability. This research demonstrates that waste-derived composite bricks represent a technically sound and environmentally sustainable alternative to conventional construction materials, simultaneously addressing waste management challenges and reducing landfill burden. The economic and environmental benefits of this approach have substantial implications for circular economy practices in the construction industry
Performance Evaluation of Locally Fabricated Point-of-Use (PoU) Clay Filters with Organic Additives for Turbidity Removal in Rural Household Water Treatment
This paper evaluates, tests, and economically evaluates a Point-of-Use (PoU) clay filter, impregnated with natural materials, for turbidity removal from rural drinking water in Maharashtra, India. The work emphasizes use of locally available resources and real household operating conditions to produce an affordable, field-validated treatment option. The Point-of-Use (PoU) clay filter was fabricated from clay blended with combustible organics (sawdust or groundnut shell powder) that burn out during firing to create a porous module, assembled in a PVC-based housing with copper piping and a brass outlet nozzle. Source water was taken from Warna River supply to Haripur village, which, after sand filtration, still failed to meet IS 10500:2012 turbidity limits, and was treated in 20 L batch runs under dayto-day household usage. Flow rate was determined by the time–volume method, while turbidity of influent and filtrate was monitored using a calibrated turbidity meter; modules were periodically backwashed and their hydraulic and removal performance tracked over cumulative throughput. Two module formulations were evaluated: Module 1 (sawdust-based) and Module 2 (groundnut shell-based), enabling assessment of the influence of organic additive on porosity, flow, and longevity. Module 1 achieved an average turbidity removal efficiency of 90.14 ± 0.37%, reducing raw water from 6.02 ± 2.69 NTU (up to 13.40 NTU) to 0.58 ± 0.27 NTU, consistently satisfying IS 10500:2012 turbidity standards, with mean flow rate of 67.77± 52.00 LPH and about 80% flow restoration after backwashing. Module 8 showed lower performance, with 74.58 ± 0.58% removal, residual turbidity of 1.46 ± 0.52 NTU, lower flow (23.21 ± 21.11 LPH), and weaker hydraulic recovery and shorter predicted lifespan. Performance was consistent between laboratory and PoU operation across turbidity ranges, confirming the robustness of the design. A detailed cost analysis gave a unit cost of about INR 620, less than half that of comparable commercial candle filters (~INR 1400), while delivering similar or better turbidity removal. The study demonstrates that sawdust-based Point-of-Use (PoU) clay filter can provide a technically effective, low-cost, and locally manufacturable solution for rural household water treatment in developing regions
Bioadhesive Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery Systems (BSNEDDS): A Novel Strategy to Enhance Mucosal Drug Absorption and Bioavailability
The development of bioadhesive self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (B-SNEDDS) represents a promising approach to enhance mucosal absorption and improve drug bioavailability. This study focuses on designing and evaluating a B-SNEDDS for effective mucosal drug delivery by combining the advantages of self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) with bioadhesive properties. The formulation was optimized using a blend of oil, surfactant, and cosurfactant, ensuring spontaneous nanoemulsion formation upon contact with physiological fluids. Bioadhesive polymers were incorporated to enhance retention time and improve drug absorption at the mucosal site. The prepared B-SNEDDS was characterized based on droplet size, zeta potential, drug loading efficiency, and bioadhesion strength. In vitro and ex vivo studies demonstrated improved mucosal permeability and prolonged retention time compared to conventional formulations. The results suggest that B-SNEDDS can significantly enhance mucosal drug delivery, providing an effective strategy for improving the therapeutic efficacy of poorly absorbed drug
Smart Prepaid Energy Meter
The goal of this study is to create a smart prepaid energy meter that can address some of the problems India\u27s present metering system is now facing. The majority of energy meters in India are electrochemical in design, although digital and electronics metros are progressively taking their position as more reliable and accurate energy meters. Power theft, inaccurate meter reading and invoicing, and consumers who are reluctant to pay their electricity bills on time all contribute to the loss of a significant amount of money from the sale of electricity. Delivering the same amount that was paid before consumption will generate significant revenue from customers. This study recommends a smart prepaid energy meter that offers services including prepaid billing and electricity theft. For a prepaid system, our suggested design model includes an Arduino UNO and GSM technology. For the purpose of detecting electricity theft, the model uses CT and PT to detect the current and voltage differential, respectively. Over the proteus platform, the proposed model is tested and simulated
