CLIMATE AND LAND USE/ LAND COVER CHANGE STUDIES IN SURANGI DADRA & NAGAR HAVELI (U.T)

The climate and Land Use/Land Cover maps have the capacity to illustrate the interaction between humans and the surroundings and are also available to see different conditions in the same or similar environments. Surangi village of Dadra & Nagar Haveli (UT) study is used to produce Land Use/Land Cover maps, which show environmental and geological characteristics. The major objective of this research was to produce and compares climate and Land Use/Land Cover specific maps for the land around 5 km radial distance.

COASTAL DYNAMICS AND SHORELINE MAPPING: MULTI SOURCES SPATIAL DATA ANALYSIS IN LE MORNE (MAURITIUS ISLAND)

The shoreline erosion is considered to be one of the major environmental problems in the south east and south west part of Mauritius coast. Shoreline mapping provides a means of monitoring shoreline-change, which is very essential for coastal planning and decision-making.

ESTIMATION OF CRYSTALLITE SIZE BY XRD ANALYSIS OF AS SYNTHESIZED BI2S3 BY CONVENTIONAL HIGH TEMPERATURE SOLID STATE SOLVOTHERMAL ROUTE

Bismuth sulfide chalcogenide was successfully synthesized inside the ampoule by conventional high temperature solid state solvothermal reaction of bismuth and sulfur. It was prepared by adjusting stoichiometric amount of the bismuth and sulfur heated in evacuated sealed quartz ampoule at 850 °C for 12h. Based on XRD principles, numerous approaches such as use of Scherrer equation, Hall – Williamson method for crystallite size estimation of  Bi2S3  powder.

HEXAMINE AS CORROSION INHIBITOR FOR ZINC IN (HNO3 + HCL) BINARY ACID MIXTURE

The corrosion of zinc in binary acid mixture (HNO3 + HCl) containing Hexamine has been studied at different acid concentrations, inhibitor concentration and temperatures. As the concentration of acid increases corrosion loss and I.E. (Inhibition efficiency) increases. As the concentration of inhibitor increases I.E. also increases. As temperature  increases  corrosion loss increases while percentage of I.E. decreases.
