CAREER EPISODE 1

  1. a) Introduction

CE 1.1

This episode is about work performed on production of bio-diesel from sewage sludge. I worked on it for fulfilling the requirement of degree of BE in Chemical Engineering from BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore.The project was started in Jul 2016 & ended by Dec 2016.

  1. b) Background

CE 1.2

The main consideration for this project work has been the energy crisis as well as the grave problem of environmental pollution due to the incorporation of fossil fuels. Another main reason is that the sewage sludge comprises of lipids that can be converted into biodiesel through the process of transesterification. This process is subdivided into three steps which include the drying process of sewage sludge, extraction of the requisite lipids and implementation of transesterification.

CE 1.4

During my work in this project I was responsible for the implementation of the following work tasks:

  • Developed the experimental setup
  • Collected the sludge and dewatered it
  • Pretreated the sludge for liquid-liquid extraction
  • Extracted the lipid yield through implementation of Soxhlet Method
  • Extracted lipid by liquid-liquid extraction by using match mixer and mechanical shaker
  • Verified the lipid yield through implementation of oil emulsion test and free fatty acid test

CAREER EPISODE 2

Introduction

CE 2.1

This report is related to my work which I have done to complete a thesis on Fault (Blockage) detection and analysis based on frequency response in vanadium redox flow batteries. I have worked on this during my studies from School of Chemical Engineering, UNSW, Australia. This project covered the period from Feb 2019 till Aug 2019.

Background

CE 2.2

With the rise in technology and its advancement over the years, the renewable energy technologies have become significant. This has led to a decrease regarding the dependency on fossil fuels for energy consumption causing a significant reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases. Despite certain renewable energies possessing an intermittent nature leading to development of imbalances in the supply and demand and providing certain issues related to the quality and supply of power, the Vanadium Redox Flow Battery VRFB is considered as an effective and viable solution to all these problems.

In this part of project, I am explaining my work done on single cell system to investigate whether frequency response approach is useful for detecting blockages in the cell and then apply the same methodology for multi-stack system.

CE 2.4

My main role in this project is described as follows;

  • Performing research or related previous papers and doing a literature review
  • Described a work methodology and followed it for timely completion
  • Performed detailed investigation of cell blockage
  • Designed an experimental setup

CAREER EPISODE 3

Introduction

CE 3.1

This report is related to my work which I have done to complete a thesis on Fault (Blockage) detection and analysis based on frequency response in vanadium redox flow batteries. I have worked on this during my studies from School of Chemical Engineering, UNSW, Australia. This project covered the period from Feb 2019 till Aug 2019. 

Background

CE 3.2

In this part of project, preliminary studies were conducted on multi-stack system & assessed the variation in the results. From the experiment, I was able to get the positive results and cell blockage was detected to some extent. In this phase, I have performed a static run on multi stack system and used a programmable electronic load to trigger rectangular signals.

CE 3.4

My main role in this project is described as follows;

  • Performing research or related previous papers and doing a literature review
  • Described a work methodology and followed it for timely completion
  • Performed detailed investigation of cell blockage
  • Designed an experimental setup
