World Fire Safety Day is celebrated on 9th October every year which was identified in 1920 designated as National Fire Prevention Day.  Some of the fire safety tips that every individual need to follow: Tip 01: In the event of a fire, remember time is the biggest enemy and every second counts Pre-Caution: Immediately Leave the place Tip 02: when a fire occurs, do not waste any time saving property. Take the safest exit route, but if you must escape through smoke, remember to crawl low, under the smoke and keep your mouth covered. The smoke contains toxic gases which can disorient you or at worst, overcome you. Per-Caution: Never open door that are hot to touch Tip 03:  Fire Safety awareness can be defined as activities undertaken to prevent fires from occurring, the controls that manage fire systems in emergencies, and the fire safety training suppression methods used to extinguish. Pre-caution: Designate a meeting place outside and take attendance  Tip 04: Remember to escape tip, and

Energy Storage is the key aspect in the renewable ecosystem, making the 24/7 availability of RE power which will help in converting the regular grid into a renewable energy grid in the coming future. Some of the different types of energy storage systems are: India has come up with a framework and policy on Energy Storage in the year 2023, for the integration into the grid with the VGF scheme similar to the kind of support given for wind WTGs from 2014 to 2017. Tata - TPDDL and installed 10 MW/ 10 MWh at the distribution segment with external funding.  There are different possibilities for the integration of energy storage from the generation, transmission, and distribution segments across the globe. In the current market, there are different chemical and non-chemical energy storage systems present with advantages and limitations. Consumers need to come up with a strategy in considering the technical, financial, and environmental specifications of the battery technology to choose a bett

Weather safety precautions are to be taken for the manpower and public in the hot summers and the impact is gradually increasing due to the climate change issues. please find some of the key aspects of weather safety precautions that are necessary to one and all: Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids; drink about 500 ml before starting and 200 to 250 ml every 15 or 20 minutes. Avoid dehydrating liquids.  coffee, tea, and caffeinated soft drinks can hurt more than help. Wear protective clothing.  Lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothing helps protect against heat. Change clothing if it gets completely saturated. Schedule Outdoor Activities Carefully:  Try to limit your outdoor activity to when it’s coolest i.e. morning and evening hours. Rest often in shady areas so that your body has a chance to recover. Pace yourself.  Slow down and work at an even pace. Know your own limits and ability to work safe

It’s become a saying that government would be better if it were only run by private-sector managers using standard business practices. Now after compiling the activities of both government and private sector managers and with the insight of the Department of Energy we are able to point out 25 different reasons why government management and business management are not the same.   The size, dollar value, and complexity of many government programs exceed that in the private sector. The government has fewer measures of progress or success than the private sector, although that is changing as a result of the Government Performance Reform Act requirements. Spending on a program is not equivalent to progress. The private sector has profit as a clear-cut measure. Most individuals join private sector organizations with the expectation and hope that they will have an opportunity either to earn Significant amounts of money or to be train

Green Horizons: Pioneering Sustainable Waste Management Trends in 2024. Some of the Key trends shaping the waste management landscape with Circular Economy Initiatives are as follows:  Companies increasingly embrace principles that prioritize the reduction of waste through reusing and recycling materials. Year on year there should be an increase in percent of more utilization of recycle materials and minimize the waste generation. Companies are focusing on sustainable product design, thus creating durable and recyclable items that have an extended lifespan and can seamlessly re-enter the production cycle.  Businesses are adopting innovative strategies such as offering products as a service or implementing take-back schemes.  Advanced Recycling Technologies:  Innovations in recycling technologies are gaining momentum.  AI-powered sorting systems will make recycling more accessible, cost-effective and much simpler in sorting the things or items Advancements to leverage robotics, AI, and

From the evolution of man on earth from early man to the technological geek, oil has become the major source of energy which was extracted from different sources. Some of the key sources are as follows from 18th century to till data. Energy History and the evolution of mankind from Early Man to Modern Man    The evolution of energy took place from the 15th century with the gradual development of technology. As man is developing himself from the early man stage to the highly intelligent person on the planet several technological changes took place in the development of energy and power division.  With the following time you may understand the evolution of the energy sector in the world.    18th century Industrial revolution Use of energy relied only on muscular and biomass energy (main firewood used for heating and cooking purpose Work is done with the help of labors and animals Other sources of energy such as windmills, and watermills were present but the overall contributi

 Wind turbines are the oldest technology that is developed since 1800 century for different purposes. The blades that are used made of different materials like wood, metal, polymers, etc. The installation of wind turbines with three blades in different parts of the world, for the production of electricity which is the major commodity in the industry 4.0 and further.  Old model wind turbines are 60 feet height which has the capacity to generate power to three modern houses. Whereas, modern wind turbines with 525 feet (onshore) and 850 feet (offshore), can supply power to 460 homes. The onshore wind turbine blades are 170 feet which is equal to 4 school buses. The lifespan of these blades is around 8 - 10 years. The current possibility to reuse old blades are: Shredding - further shredding - refining Cement factor - firing in Calens  Some of the reusable of wind turbine blades: Padisterin bridges Signal towers Fencing Playgrounds Public monument Bicycle shears All the above can be done w
