Environmental and Climate Change

Environment in urban cities is damaging gradually, starting from bad air quality to worst water quality. We are depleting our resource at a pace that our future generation could not even see that they ever existed. Planning of environment in cities is a crucial practice and considering it in a holistic manner is necessary i.e. Natural environment, social, political and economic to achieve sustainable outcomes. Our objective is to conserve natural resources and bio-diversity by following methods of scientific process and planning for sustainable development without regard to traditional disciplinary boundaries.

Air Quality
Air pollution in today’s date is one of the major issues faced by many cities around the globe. As per WHO, 3.7 million premature death happens due to air pollution each year. Addressing urban air quality is emerging to be top environmental challenges. Increasing burden of population in developing countries is worsening the situation. In India, many cities such as Delhi, Gurugram, Faridabad, Bhiwadi, etc are having facing worst level of air quality. We carry out research in the following areas:

  • ·         Source Apportionment studies
  • ·         Multivariate Analysis
  • ·         Causal-effect studies
  • ·         Air Quality Modeling
  • ·         Air Quality Mapping


Climate Change
Different Green House Gases(GHGs) such as Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Nitrous Oxide, etc are present in earth’s surface. They create a blanket in the environment which traps the heat required for sustenance of life on Earth. Due to anthropogenic activities especially burning of fossil fuels has led to increase in average temperature of Earth surface. The impacts of global warming can be disastrous i.e. rising sea level, melting of glaciers, changes in weather patterns, etc. We must respond to it at the earliest before we regret. We should move towards non-conventional sources of energy that can reduce the overall greenhouse gases in the environment. We carry out research in the following areas:

  • ·         Low-carbon Transport
  • ·         Carbon footprint
  • ·         Renewable energy
  • ·         Pollution Pricing




Renewable Energy
We know that energy is source of all the functioning happen around the globe. Introduction to new technologies demands for high reserves for energy and conventional sources are depleting at a faster rate which may last for few more decades. We need to bring in technologies to run the planet on non-conventional renewable energy sources. We encourage ourselves to work on various sources of renewable energy:

  • ·         Wind energy
  • ·         Feasibility Studies
  • ·         Hydro-power
  • ·         Bio-fuel
  • ·         Solar energy


Resilient Cities
Cities being a major focus of investment in terms of infrastructure carry a burden of risk from natural and man-made calamities. The readiness of a city to face any disaster can save a lot of resources. A city should be prepared enough to absorb the impacts of a disaster and recover from it with least damage possible. The component of resilience for a city to stand on its own is mentioned below:

  • ·         Economically Resilient
  • ·         Socially Resilient
  • ·         Environmentally Resilient
  • ·         Institutionally Resilient


Water Scarcity  
As per UN WATER “Water scarcity can mean scarcity in availability due to physical shortage, or scarcity in access due to the failure of institutions to ensure a regular supply or due to a lack of adequate infrastructure.” The water currently has not much of a shortage issue around the global but because of our increasing demand we need to think about the availability of fresh water. Some regions have already started to show the trends of waste shortage.

  • ·         Water Demand supply gap studies
  • ·         Groundwater conservation
  • ·         Water Quality Assessment
  •  Urban Water and sanitation policy

INTRODUCTION India is a developing nation where the urban areas have key roles in the overall progress of the nation-be it economic, social or any other realm. To aid the country’s sustainable development the Indian government constantly puts in efforts in form of new schemes and reforms. One such scheme which aims at transforming urban India is AMRUT and its sub-scheme of Master Plan Formulation using GIS technology. Master Plans have always been the basis of regulating the urban growth and addressing the various issues within the city. This new sub-scheme under the scope of AMRUT launched in 2015 is being implemented in the states of the nation with the anticipation of favorable end results. Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) AMRUT or the Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation was jointly planned and launched by the Indian Government along with Smart Cities in order to upgrade urban infrastructure and transform urban l...

Waterless Urinal reduce cost and help to save water

Image
Many companies provide bathroom facilities for their customer. Like something that general public has come to expect. Waterlessurinal appealing to a business owner looking to cut down on water costs. Creators of landmark invention says that waterless urinal can save between 15,000 and 45,000 gallon of water per year. When compared to a conventional urinal, this is assuming that the unit would be used between 40 and 120 times daily. Design of the urinal works by using a trap and liquid sealant instead of water. When a man uses the waterless urinal, the sealant, which is lighter than water, float on top of the urine, sealing on the odors. The urinal collects on the U-bend pipe. The cartridge and sealant must be replaced timely. Waterless urinals saving water from going down the drain: The concept of waterless urinal in men’s bathroom may seem impossible but the technology exits now to make this product in reality. Not only do they save a business hundred of dollar on the op...
