the way. This could also lead to new wildlife in the area‚ although also disrupt the wildlife already there. The flood storage reservoir upstream of the town can hold back floodwater’s‚ and so reduce the maximum flood flow through the town. A flood storage reservoir remains effective so long as it does not become full of water. Although‚ if a larger flood occurs‚ the reservoir fills up and the extra water will flow over the top. One other point is that this will be costly‚ but could save many businesses

Being a land-scarce country of 714.3 square kilometres and having a population density of 7‚257 per square kilometer (Singapore Department of Statistics‚ 2012)‚ every hectare of land in Singapore is extremely important to us. Over the years‚ widespread urbanisation has led to about 90.2% of our land area being developed (Tan‚ 2006)‚ exhausting much of our natural heritage in the process. Due to the limited amount of land‚ our natural heritage is insufficient to provide us with much economical

The proposed design will be using a single central reservoir cylindrical in shape which will be stored approximately 50 feet underground. The transfer of heat to or from the central reservoir will be achieved through a piping system connected to a special Freon evaporator installed above around in conjunction with glycol working fluid media. A directional valve will be

Separation of cream from full cream milk using the Disc- Bowl Centrifuge. Introduction:- Cream is usually a dairy product containing high fat percent‚ which can be seen floating on the top before the homogenization process. When the milk is unhomogenized‚ overtime‚ the fat lighter in weight rises to the top. The process in the industries is completely different as they use centrifuges‚ normally called as separators to accelerate the creaming process. Cost of cream totally depends upon its

Andhra Pradesh. The water reservoirs in many towns and cities were meant for a small population. Even the drains for carrying sewage water were planned and built for a small population. With the increasing population the water available is inadequate to meet the needs of the people. Investigation should be done whether more reservoirs could be built to augment the supply of drinking water to the people. When summer is quite severe sometimes what was once a large reservoir of water shrinks to a pool
