Efficient transmission and distribution of electricity is a fundamental requirement for every society. Shortfall in power generation due to increased power demand to meet up the industrial requirements is causing several social and economic difficulties. As things stand now, the current grid is struggling to keep up. Smart Grid, an upgrade of current system which is more reliable, efficient, affordable, secured and environment friendly, is the solution of this growing concern. It is believed that Smart Grid will take us towards energy independence and environmentally sustainable economic growth. In this paper some key features of Smart Grid has been discussed. The benefits and potential barriers to create a Smart Grid are alsoexplained.

Research paper thumbnail of Adsorption of Dopamine-hydrochloride (DPH) from Aqueous Solution

Dhaka University Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2007

Adsorption of dopamine hydrochloride 3-hydroxy tyraminium chloride on solid surfaces like silica ... more Adsorption of dopamine hydrochloride 3-hydroxy tyraminium chloride on solid surfaces like silica gel, alumina, kaolin and attapulgite from aqueous solution under different pH values were studied. It was observed that the extent of adsorption of dopamine hydrochloride (DPH) with various pH values did not show any systematic pattern for all the four solids. In most cases it was found that pH has little influence on the extent of adsorption even though adsorption increased with increasing initial concentration of the adsorbate solution. The Langmuir plots in most cases showed non-linear trend indicating multilayer adsorption. Adsorption of DPH on all four solids was consistent with the Frendlich adsorption isotherm and thus it is evident that the multilayer adsorption takes place from solutions. The adsorption phenomena were kinetically found to be ideal and it is confirmed from the experimental results that DPH does not interact with any of the four solids. The adsorption phenomena we...

Research paper thumbnail of Value of ST Segment Changes in 12 Lead ECG to Detect Proximal Versus Distal Right Coronary Artery Occlusion in Acute Inferoposterior Myocardial Infarction

University Heart Journal, 2012

ST elevation in inferior leads indicates an evolving myocardial infarction of the inferoposterior wall. The outcome of patients with inferoposterior myocardial infarction due to occlusion of right coronary artery depends mainly on the location of occlusion (distal versus proximal). Hypothesis: Value of ST-segment depression in lateral leads (I and aVL) and ST-segment changes in lead V1 to predict the site of right coronary artery occlusion in the case of an inferoposterior myocardial infarction. Objective: To predict the site of right coronary artery (RCA) occlusion ( proximal or distal) in acute inferoposterior myocardial infarction by ST segment depression in leads 1 & aVL and ST-segment changes( is electric/ elevated or depressed) in V1.Methods and Results: A total of fifty four patients of ST-segme...

Research paper thumbnail of A Case Study of the Notion and Model of Micro Hydro Power Plant Using the Kinetic Energy of Flowing Water of Burinadi and Meghna River of Bangladesh

Engineering Journal, 2013

At this stage for the progression of this country electricity is very vital to sustain the economic growth. These days it becomes extremely challenging to cope up with the required energy demand of the country. Continuous increase in price of fuel in the world market and also the unavailability of fuel are the reasons behind this. On the other hand fuel burning in energy generation is responsible for global climate change and Bangladesh residing in high risk of this. Renewable energy can be an immense hope under this circumstance. The country is blessed with a good number of rivers consisting adequate flow of water throughout the year. Harnessing this driving water of rivers can be a great source of kinetic energy and utilizing this kinetic energy of driving water Hydro Electricity can be produced. In this paper the real life practical data of Burinadi & Meghna Rivers were considered. A system is introduced that does not need the Dam or Reservoir to produce Electrical Power and is observed that 21.1MW-hr & 12.48MW-hr worth of energy can be produced annually from Burinadi & Meghna Rivers respectively. This extent of power can be very useful for these rivers nearby inhabitants in remote areas as they are still out of national grid range.
