Title: Utilization of distillery wastewater for improving production in underproductive paddy grown area in India Authors: Das, Madhumita; Chakraborty, H; Singandhupe, R B; Muduli, S D; Kumar, A Abstract: This study presents a field experiment by using treated wastewater of cane molasses distilleries (DE) for improvingcropping in underproductive area (acidic red and laterite soil) in Orissa. Grain and straw yield and nutrients’ uptake weresubstantially improved over normal practice. Wastewater (@ 120 m3/ha) was found as most favorable concentration for growingpaddy in acidic, red and laterite soil area. Page(s): 560-563

Title: Efficacy of biodegraded coir pith for cultivation of medicinal plants Authors: Reghuvaran, Abesh; Ravindranath, Anita Das Abstract: This study presents coir pith biodegradation with white rot fungus and nitrogen fixing bacteria for cultivation of medicinalplants (Phyllanthus amaranthus, Andrographis paniculata, Bacopa monneiri, Piper longum). Proportion (25% garden soil and75% compost) yielded an effective growth of all medicinal plants. Thus, composted coir pith with nitrogen fixing bacteria is asan effective potting medium for cultivation of medicinal plants. Page(s): 554-559

Title: Thermodynamic analysis of gas turbine powered cogeneration systems Authors: Irimescu, Adrian; Lelea, Dorin Abstract: This study proposes an integrated model for thermodynamic analysis of gas turbine powered cogeneration systems,covering simple cycle and overall cogeneration efficiency, load control by using inlet guide vanes, inlet fogging and supplementaryfiring. The model can be further developed for other applications (air cooling, steam injection, and trigeneration ofpower, heat and cooling). Page(s): 548-553

Title: Biodesulfurization of hydro-desulfurized diesel in airlift reactor Authors: Nandi, Somnath Abstract: This study presents simulation of an indigenously designed airlift reactor (vol. 43.746 dm3) to lower down sulfur content ofhydrodesulfurized diesel from 500 ppm (mg/dm3) to ultra-low level using Rhodococcus sp. as microbial biocatalyst. A detailedmodeling using TSM (tanks in series model) is proposed to demonstrate efficacy of airlift reactor for biodesulfurization. Page(s): 543-547
