To save envieronment and reduce

dependancy on fossil fuel energy, more
and more energy ha to be produced
from renewaqble. Judicious use of
energy, through energy conservation
mesures is a viterl step in this regard.
There is scope for energy saving in
residential sector, industries and
commercial establisments. New
technologies and new products are
coming up in the market, forenergy
saving. Knowledge of thermodynamic
principles, usage of thermal insulation in
buildings, lighting devices and new
electric motor, is important. Energyaudit is an important tool to achieve the
goal.

There is very good scope for saving energy, by

using it judiciously. During these days of saving
the environment, energy conservation plays a vital
role. The government of India has passed Energy
Conservation Act-2003 and Energy Conservation
Building Code (ECBC-2007), in this regard. By
observing energy efficient measures there is
tremendous scope of saving energy in industry,
built environment, transport etc.

As India needs about 50,000 Energy
Manager and 20,000 Energy Auditor for
implementing
energy
efficiency
measures, the course would be
instrumental to get the target as well as
bridge
the
knowledge
gap
on
fundamentals of energy efficiency for
non-electrical
and
non-mechanical
engineering background students for
taking up the advanced level courses
such as cogeneration and energy
efficiency, etc.

The objective of this course is to study the potential of

power generation from renewables and quantify its
impact on carbon dioxide mitigation. It includes solar
thermal power, power from wind, biomass power, tidal
power and OTEC power. Some of the advanced
countries around the world are harnessing this power.
The course will include latest technologies related to
different power resources.

In these days of energy crisis and environmental

deterioration, solar energy finds an important place as a
solution. It is being used globally to generate electricity and
provide industrial and domestic applications. Through
photovoltaic and thermal routes, power is being made
available to distant and isolated places where grid access is
almost impossible. Solar water heating, solar space heating
and solar heat in the form of industrial process heat, is being
used.

The major objective of the course

is to impart sufficient knowledge
on generation and management
of solid waste, water and air
pollution from the industrial
sector.
Solid waste disposal
through landfills and various
water treatment techniques are
the important components of the
course. Study on various cses
studies on industrial waste
management
and
recycling
further strengthen the course
objectives.

To make the students appreciate the

importance of cogeneration in improving the
overall efficiency, thus reducing fuel
consumption, improving economy and
limiting global warming. Cogeneration
plants may be based on Steam turbine, Gas
turbine or IC Engines: to make the students
aware of different technologies. To impart to
students
knowledge
of
practical
cogeneration possibilities through case
studies related to different types of process
industries (sugar/textile/paper etc.) and other
industries (steel, cement etc.). Also hotel
industries, hospitals etc.

This 1-credit course is designed with the objective of giving

some basic mathematical background to those students who
did not have it at there graduation level. In these days of
computers, numerical methods have become indispensable.
Basics of Fourier series / transform and Laplace transform
are also included here, MATLAB is being used very much
for research purpose.

Due to the rapidly growing energy needs of the

country, India has made definite moves towards
exercising the nuclear option for large-scale energy
generation in the coming years. Simultaneously, India
has become a full partner in the seven nation
international consortium formed for proving the

viability of nuclear fusion as a large scale energy
option by making success of project ITER
(International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor)
being set up in France. To further the needs of the
country in this direction a National Fusion Program has
also been set up within the country. In view of these
developments, it is appropriate that a course on basic
nuclear energy be available for students interested in
large scale energy options both for India and globally.
The course treats the basics of both nuclear fission and
fusion, and energy generation using these methods; it is
suitable for students from interdisciplinary background.

In the last few decades, plasma based materials

processing has pervaded almost all areas, from
semiconductors and plasma based coatings to plasma
nitriding and plasma immersed ion implantation to
plasma pyrolysis. Thus a comprehensive knowledge of
how plasmas are utilized for different types of
materials processing would be immensely useful for
the future engineers from all fields.
