  • Industry 4.0 and 5.0 towards enhanced productivity and competitiveness
    Ashok G. Matani
    Industry 4 0 Concepts Processes and Systems, 2023
    Enabling personalized mass production by reintroducing the “human touch” to products. Industry 3.0 brought mass production, Industry 4.0 brought mass customization, but Industry 5.0 could be about using the latest tech to not only customize but also to personalize the products (and production processes). Considering historical creative, handmade work – paired with ultimate precision and productivity with the use of collaborative robots, probably not every industry will embrace Industry 5.0. The focus lies on applications where the personalized touch delivers a better customer experience, which results in additional value and revenues. Going from easy-to-use human-machine interfaces to no recognizable interfaces where the interaction of human and machine happens. Enabling technologies could be interaction via voice or even brain-waves. This seamlessly integrates artificial intelligence with everyday actions. Machine to machine micro-transactions for a complete transparency of the value creation chain and for human and non-human contributors. This could be one practical application of block chain technology, which could fulfill incremental payment for created value or smart contracts, securing the production quality fulfillment. This chapter highlights the latest developments in Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 in various industries.

    Deregulated Electricity Structures and Smart Grids, 2022
    The energy sector is undergoing a massive transformation. Along with solar, wind, storage and other technologies, the Internet of Things (IoT) is helping to drive this transformation. It is revolutionizing nearly every part of the industry from generation to transmission to distribution and changing how energy companies and customers interact. In order to explore the potential of renewable energy sources from the nature, we have to assess the availability of resources spatially as well as temporally. The infrastructure for the energy and utilities is first planned and then managed by different sources namely central government, state-level corporations and private firms causing non-compliance and conformance to global or required quality standards changing from time to time. This challenge can be fulfilled by using Information Technology and GIS solutions to enhance performance and improve quality of energy infrastructure in line with global levels. The geographic data and business data are used to develop GIS-enabled solutions. The digitized data of infrastructure components is then used for real-time monitoring of assets and analytics. These solutions are implemented for various stake holders including policy makers, power plant companies and distribution companies working with these systems. This chapter highlights latest developments in implementing GPS and GIS tools and applications in energy sector in various parts of the world.

    International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering, 2019
    Methanol (CH3OH) and ethanol (C2H5OH) have came to limelight now-a-days because of their property of less polluting emittants and thought of as extremely economical due to its swish operative capacity. Low particulate level and soot free emission can also be obtained due to presence of oxygen in these fuels. We can obtain a considerable fuel efficiency and sound mileage if we double the carbon in ethanol which contains more energy. The structure is more similar to iso-butanol. Iso-butanol is unique in alcoholic fuels due to its equatorial affinity for water. The worldwide energy policy also aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions occurred due to traditional fuels and thus developing renewable energy became an important part of this policy. Now-a-days transport sector has decreased its reliance on oil which generally contributes to hazardous environmental impact and to achieve this some alternative transport fuels such as biofuels, hydrogen and natural gas emerged up as a helping hand. Blending methanol into diesel and gasoline permits the mixture to possess an entire combustion with the presence of oxygen which increases its combustion efficiency and reduces greenhouse gas emission. Gasohol- a blend of gasoline and 10%methanol is available at plenty of petrol service stations as a regular automobile fuel within the United States. Brazil has successfully implemented and used methanol in terms of spark ignition engine operations as a fuel. Methanol has emerged up as a sustainable fuel for IC engines in past few decades because of its characteristics of soot free burning and higher efficiencies at less cost. The European Union decided to set 10% requirement of renewable energy in transport sector which is to be compiled with by 2020. In 2010, the transport sector utilized 4.70% of renewable energy out of which 91% was covered by biofuels.
  • Currency note paper and banana fiber pulp waste utilization and its effect of density, moisture and temperature on wood products
    Dr. Ashok G. Matani*, , Premesh P. Bhatkar, Dr. Shamal K, , and
    International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering, 2019
    Possibilities for use of banana fiber and currency notes thermally modified groups were evaluated for the production of plywood boards in industrial conditions. Formats of groups were treated at temperatures of 190 °C, 200 °C, 210 °C, and 215 °C for each 9 h to making the pulp process. By combining the treated and non-treated formats of veneer in types of board groups, thirteen different types of board were made. Analysis showed that the examined physical and mechanical properties were influenced by both the type of construction and the applied thermal treatment. Boards composed only of thermally modified group achieved the best results regarding moisture absorption and dimensional stability, and boards composed of the combined currency notes and banana fiber had better mechanical properties. As per the analysis of plywood board when used banana fiber used in pulp of plywood board is suitable at190 °C temperature rather than 215 °C temperature with comparing the other types of board. 25 °C temperature is less requires for control group board. We can consume cost of heat which is used in this process and getting the hard quality of plywood. At 215 °C temperature of processing cost of heat is 10% of plywood cost and when at 190°C of processing the cost of heat is 9.06% of plywood cost so that we can consume 0.94% cost of heat. Moisture content of temperature conditioned boards of control group is 9.01% density of conditioned boards 436.36 kg/m3. Highest bending strength and modulus of elasticity of boards is 48.07MPa and 6078 MPa in longitudinal direction and bending strength and modulus of elasticity of boards in cross-section 28.40MPa and 2027 MPa.
