ABSTRACT
The government of Gujarat has launched vishwakarma yojna (scheme) for development of
villages by identifying the requirements of villages. Under this scheme, the villages are surveyed
and this project was identified and selected for implementation. Rurbanization is to bring peace
of mind to the villagers by providing them the basic amenities required and still keeping the
village soul intact. It is about finding out what the basic facilities are present and what can be
provided to betterment of the village. The present resources are made to such a use that it gives
its cent percentage usability with sustainability.
Our village vans khiliya is located at 7km away from Anand district. It is located on national
Highway 228. Pin code of village is 388560. Postal head in Mogari. Language spoken are
Gujarati, Hindi, and English. elevation/altitude: 36 meter above sea level.
The village’s condition is good then other ordinary village. The village has good facilities of
Milk Co-operative Society, Public library, Panchayat building etc. But the other side the problem
of narrow roads in village, poor conditions of Primary school, Pond, Community hall etc.
The community hall should be built in village because in some function village people cannot
afford the private venue for the function.The physical structure like public toilet is must needed
component in village. The smart village design of Agriculture Co-Operative society is to build in
village because the farmer’s carting charges are reduce. And surrounding villages also take
facilities.
To application of service and maintenance of some structure. And some sustainable structure
should made in village. This factors affecting onthe development of village.
Key words: Good facility of post office, Public Toilet, Community Hall, Public Garden,
Agriculture Co-Operative society

2.1 Introduction
2.1.1 Concepts:
A 'smart city' is an urban region that is advanced in terms of overall infrastructure,
sustainable real estate, communications and market viability. It is a city where
information technology is the principal infrastructure and the basis for providing
essential services to residents. People migrate to cities primarily for employment.
Making a city “smart” is evolving as a strategy to ease the problems generated by the
urban population growth and speedy urbanization. Yet little hypothetical research has
sparingly discussed the phenomenon. To close the gap in the literature about smart cities
and in response to the increasing use of the concept, this paper proposes an agenda to
understand the concept of smart cities. Based on the exploration of a wide and extensive
array of literature from various disciplinary areas we identify eight critical factors of
smart city initiatives: management and organization, technology, governance, policy
context, people and communities, economy, built infrastructure, and natural
environment.
Strategic planning
Mobility

E – government
E – transportation
Technological resiliency
Cyber defense
Renewable energy
2.1.2Definition:
The concept which is done for development of village by National, state and Rural
Government. A city well performing in a forward looking way in economy, people
governance, mobility, environment, and living, builds on the smart combination of
endowment and activities of self-decisive, independent and aware citizens.
Following are the points required to fulfill for development of smart village:
1. Smart security.
2. Efficient public transportation system.
3. Improving sanitation conditions
The USDOT identifies twelve vision element that comprise a smart city.
1. Urban automation
2. Connected vehicles
3. Intelligent, sensor-based infrastructure
4. Urban analytics
5. User-focused mobility services and choices
6. Urban delivery and logistics
7. Strategic business models and partnering opportunities
8. Smart grid, roadway electrification and electric vehicals
9. Connected, involved citizens
10. Architecture and standards
11. Low cost, efficient, secure and resilient information and communication technology
(ICT)
12. Smart land use
Goal
Improve people’s quality of life
Improve health
Increase economic growth
Provide employment
Sustainable environment
Smart City would be the one which plans judiciously to meet its aspirations and challenges in a
sustainable manner while fostering principles of good governance. These are achieved in a Smart
City by utilizing the enhanced power of technology.
2.1.5 Practices
In order to develop a smart village, all the above criteria need to be met and a sustainable
environment needs to be created which is supportive of the initiatives required in order to
make the efforts to develop a smart village successful.
Education:
This is one of the most important aspects of developing a village. A community can only
thrive when people have access to education which helps empower them with the knowledge
required to create better lives for the people around them. Therefore, this is probably one of
the most important criteria when it comes to developing a smart village.
Healthcare:
A unified healthcare system needs to be developed which guarantees access to healthcare for
every citizen. A community cannot thrive if the people can’t even access basic healthcare.
Clean drinking water is something that is a basic requirement for survival along with proper
sanitation to ensure that people live healthy and fulfilling lives.
Nutrition:
A unified program needs to be developed where every single individual in the community has
access to a nutritious diet. Regarding this, a proper plan needs to be developed that would
ensure that no one goes without food.

Smart city into required developed/used some structure/technology based on given below
indicator:
The last 30 to 40 years have fostered an era of rapid automation and ingenuity to create
technology that makes our lives easier and operations simpler. Today, technology is interwoven
into our everyday lives with interconnected smart devices that respond to seemingly everything
around us. These advances, which are frequently used by consumers and commercial enterprises,
are now being leveraged within our nation’s critical infrastructure, creating new concerns about
the network integrity and vulnerability of the nation’s mission critical operations.
The introduction of automation to our nation’s critical infrastructure for electricity, transportation
and security drives the need for a stronger, more robust means of cybersecurity. Our cities are
becoming increasingly smarter due to the implementation of autonomous monitoring and control
technologies. However, hese technologies, when not connected to secure networks, are
extremely susceptible to cyber threats - many of which have.
City infrastructures and services are changing with new interconnected systems for monitoring,
control and automation. These may include water and sanitation to emergency responders and
disaster recovery.
These benefits must be considered against the potential harm that may come from this massively
interconnected world. Technical, administrative and financial factors must be weighted with the
legal, political and social environment of the city.
Cyber security in the context of Smart Cities is a hot topic. The objective of Smart Cities is to
optimize the city in a dynamic way to offer a better quality of life to the citizens through the
application of information and communication technology (ICT). The range of areas where cities
can become smarter is extensive: it is an evolution of “Connected Cities” with the prevalence of
data exchange at a larger scale.
The benefits of Information and Computing Technologies (ICT) in a Smart City and of the
Internet of Things are tremendous. Smart energy meters, security devices, smart appliances for
health and domestic life: these and more offer unprecedented conveniences and improved qualit y
of life. City infrastructures and services are changing with new interconnected systems for
monitoring, control and automation. These may include water and sanitation to emergency
responders and disaster recovery.
Methodology
Several paradigms and categorical structures may be applied in analyzing the benefits and
detriments of this data environment. An applicable paradigm used for this analysis is that of IBM
that the Smart City, its components and its citizens are
Instrumented
Interconnected
Intelligent.
According to world green building council A ‘green’ building is a building that, in its design,
construction or operation, reduces or eliminates negative impacts, and can create positive
impacts, on our climate and natural environment. Green buildings preserve precious natural
resources and improve our quality of life.
There are a number of features which can make a building ‘green’. These include:
Any building can be a green building, whether it’s a home, an office, a school, a hospital, a
community center, or any other type of structure, provided it includes features listed above.
District Cooling
District cooling is the cooling equivalent of district heating. Working on broadly similar
principles to district heating, district cooling delivers chilled water to buildings like offices and
factories needing cooling. In winter, the source for the cooling can often be sea water, so it is a
cheaper resource than using electricity to run compressors for cooling. Alternatively, District
Cooling can be provided by a Heat Sharing Network which enables each building on the circuit
to use a heat pump to reject heat to an ambient ground temperature circuit.
District cooling is the distribution of cooling energy from a centralized plant to several buildings
in a district. Centralizing the comfort cooling infrastructure offset the need for mechanical rooms
in each building within the district. The result is up to 40% improvement in efficiency and up to
20% life cycle cost saving.
District Heating
District heating is a system for distributing heat generated in a centralized location for residential
and commercial heating requirements such as space heating and water heating. The heat is often
obtained from a cogeneration plant burning fossil fuels but increasingly also biomass, although
heat-only boiler stations, geothermal heating, heat pumps and central solar heating are also used,
as well as nuclear power. District heating plants can provide higher efficiencies and better
pollution control than localized boilers. According to some research, district heating with
combined heat and power is the cheapest method of cutting carbon emissions, and has one of the
lowest carbon footprints of all fossil generation plants.
District heating plants can provide higher efficiencies and better pollution control than localized

Smart Data Center Facilities Solution provides a modern foundation for distributed cloud
applications for individuals and corporations.
Easily scale up or scale out to meet the growing demand for cloud computing, virtualization, and
other advanced technologies. Incorporate intelligent plug-and-play micro modules that address
the requirements of branch and headquarters data centers Be based on digital, intelligent network
technologies. Uses green energy technology to reduce Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), and
slashes operating costs with proactive Operations and Management (O&M) techniques.
• Energy metering
• Virtualization
The information gathered is analyzed, interpreted and delivered as reliable, robust and
meaningful information to infrastructure providers, who can then make better-informed
decisions about the structural health and maintenance of their assets.
According to past data The Rs 1 lakh crore that will be granted for the ambitious five-year Smart
Cities plan by the Centre, state governments and municipal bodies of the 100 selected cities, will
account for merely a fifth of the money needed for the mission. As per Central government
estimates, a whopping Rs 4 lakh crore of funds will be infused chiefly through private
investments and loans from multilateral institutions among other sources.
Each of these technologies work together to make a smart city even smarter. As the world's
population grows, and more people move into urban areas, the need for smarter cities will
increase to make the best use of available resources.
To become a digital city, governments will need an appropriate set of solutions that will help
them advance to the next stage of ICT maturity. The more a city takes advantage of the potential
offered by ICT in terms of the provision of digital services and an integrated urban network, the
higher its level of ICT maturity. In many ways, this is easier for newer cities in emerging
markets, which are just now investing in urban infrastructure.
For example, Lusail City in Qatar, Masdar City in the UAE, and Songdo in South Korea are all
making digital technology, networks, and apps a central part of how they operate and interact
with citizens. By contrast, existing — or brownfield — metropolitan areas face clear challenges
in moving up the ICT maturity ladder, as they need to modernize their existing infrastructure
with embedded sensors and control systems and retrofit old buildings — a complicated and
expensive process.
Indeed, in some cases it is impossible as the buildings cannot accommodate new technologies.
However, becoming a digital city is not so stark a choice that urban authorities either achieve this
revolution or fail. Rather, even taking small steps, particularly for established cities, toward
becoming more digitized and offering enhanced digital services provides a variety of benefits. In
some cases, established cities can use the disruptive power of digitization to leapfrog some of the
obstacles.
Maybe that definition can condition what you are doing in the subsequent steps; it relates to
geography, links between cities and flows of people between them; that in some Countries the
definition of City/community that is stated does not correspond effectively happens in the real
life.
2. Study Community:
Before deciding to build a smart city, first we need to know that. This can be done by
determining the benefits of such an initiative. Study the community to know the citizens, the
business's needs – know the citizens and the community's unique attributes, such as the age of
the citizens, their education, hobbies, and attractions ofthe city.
Develop a policy to drive the initiatives, where roles, responsibilities, objective, and goals, can
be defined. Create plans and strategies on how the goals will be achieved.
This can be done by engaging the citizens through the use of government initiatives, open data,
sport events, etc.
Funding: One of the biggest challenge is having a streamlined funding for the development of
smart cities. It was decided that each Smart City will receive 500 Crore over the period of 5
years by Central Government. But this amount won’t be sufficient. To match the contribution of
central government there should be some contribution from the state government too in order to
create sustainable funding to take the smart cities from pilot phase to execution and
thencompletion. There are many private firms that are providing funding but it requires to be in
proper process.
Technology: There are certain technologies that are a part of the project and it is expensive to use
them. Because of the advancement, some technologies are borrowed from other countries which
makes it more expensive. This hinders the success of smart city project. Another challenge is in
the discovery of technology and the need for a medium that can bring technology users and
creators together to adopt faster platforms.
Problem of regulation and governance: Owing to a large set of investors, the list of stakeholders
in the project is growing. In case of any legal issues, there is a strong need of separate legal
framework in the stages of smart city mission. When the project is big there is a need of effective
communication between central government, state and local governments. Apart from this, there
is also a need of statutory bodies to provide quick approvals so that no resources and time goes
waste.
Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan was launched by Hon’ble Prime Minister of India on 2 nd October
2015, which caught attention of everybody not only in India, but also in the world. The
government has taken various steps to create awareness among the masses for keeping the area
surrounding them neat and clean. Government is also paying special attention for cleaning of
rivers, railway stations, tourist destinations and other public places.
The BARC is playing a pivotal role in the development of these technologies. Some of these
technologies are as follows:
Multi Stage Biological Treatment Solution (MSBT) can be implemented on existing STP which
are not able to process Sewage to optimum efficiency. MSBT can be implemented as a modular
or container on the banks of rivers on Drains/Nalas which discharge waste water to the river. It
can also be implanted in small urban societies and housing complex for better water
management. Benefits of MSBT are: No Surplus of Organic Sludge, No Odour problem, drastic
reduction of Electrical Power usage which minimizes operating costs, No need for return sludge
pumping (minimizing electromechanical component which ultimately reduces operating cost).
There are more than 90% of the population has access to drinking and 60 %of the population has
access basic sanitation.
The challenges faced by India urban water and sanitation are as Follow:
Creating consensus on sector governance and institutional arrangements.
Developing and testing service provider models that have characteristics of well Run
public companies for different market segments Is the main challenges faced by India
urban and sanitation.
Improving financial sustainability of providers.
The first is that the data bank for people seeking to information.
• Indigenous water purification technologies: These technologies can improve the: drinking
water quality of smaller villages as well as larger cities. It uses the Pressure Driven Membrane
Processes. These are suitable for all capacity units e.g. they are adaptable from household level
unit or community level unit to large scale unit. Water purification technologies make use of the
nuclear energy and solar energy also.
Solid waste dumping sites or landfill sites: need more amount of land which is not available in
urban areas. Incineration of solid waste pollutes the environment if the incinerators are not
designed or operated properly. Thermal Plasma Technology is ideally suited for waste treatment.
By plasma technology Hazardous & toxic compounds are broken down to elemental constituents
at high temperatures; Inorganic materials are converted to Vitrified Mass; and Organic materials
are Pyrolysed or Gasified, Converted to flue gases (H2 & CO) & Lower hydrocarbon gases when
operated at low temperature (500 – 600OC). Disposal of carcass is also being thought of using
plasma pyrolysis..
Multi Stage Biological Treatment Solution (MSBT) can be implemented on existing STP which
is not able to process Sewage to optimum efficiency. MSBT can be implemented as a modular or
container onthe banks of rivers on Drains/Nalas which discharge waste water to the river. It can
also be implanted in small urban societies and housing complex for better water management.
Benefits of MSBT are: No Surplus of Organic Sludge, No Oder problem, drastic reduction of
Electrical Power usage which minimizes operating costs, No need for return sludge pumping
(minimizing electromechanical component which ultimately reduces operating cost).
Role of environmental isotope techniques in the water resources development and management:
There are two type of isotopes, stable isotopes and radioactive isotopes. Isotope techniques are
used to find out the type of contamination in surface water and ground water, the sources and
origin of contamination, pollutant dispersion in surface water bodies, to assess the ground water
salinity, to assess the changes due to long-term exploitation of groundwater, for hydro-chemical
investigation and to carry out geochemical evolution of groundwater.

Urban:
A settlement where the population is very high and has the feature of a built environment
is known as Urban.
City, towns, conurbations are examples of urban and this term is can’t be extended to
villages and hamlets. It includes Non-agricultural work, i.e. trade, commerce or provision
of service.
Urbanization also includes having more advanced technology and science, where
hospitals have more advanced machineries and people have smart-phones, tablets, etc.
It also has a higher employment rate compared to rural area.
An urban area is the region surrounding a city. Most people of urban areas have non-agricultural
jobs. Urban areas are very developed, meaning there is a density of human structures such as
houses, commercial buildings, roads, bridges, and railways. "Urban area" can refer to towns
cities, and suburbs.
Rural:
Rural area is defined as the area in which 75% or more male population is engaged with
agricultural Activity.
According to the planning commission a town with a max. population of 15,000 is
considered rural in nature. In these areas the panchayat makes all the decisions.
In rural areas, agriculture is the chief source of livelihood along with fishing, cottage
industry, pottery, etc. It has a very low population density.
Rural area:
A rural area is an area or a land that has lower residential density or other buildings, and with
lower population density generally with lower or backwardness in facilities,low literacyrate in
comparison to city or any other urban area as per conventional Indian context rural area has
following characteristics and problems.
An urban area is the region surrounding a city. Most inhabitants of urban areas have non-agricultural
jobs. The population density is quite high. Urban areas are very developed, meaning there is a density
of human structures such as houses, commercial buildings, roads, bridges, and railways. “Urban
area" can refer to towns, cities, and suburbs. An urban area includes the city itself, as well as the
surrounding areas. Many urban areas are called metropolitan areas, when two or more metropolitan
areas grow until they combine, the result may be known as a megalopolis.
Village:
A Village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet but smaller than a
town, with a population ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. It is generally larger than
a "hamlet" but smaller than a "town".
Generally, the women in villages are not much educated and their social status is lower
than that of their counterparts in the towns. Factors like prevalence of child marriage,
joint family system, traditional ideals, old values and lack of education among females
are responsible for the low status of women.

and Rural Population of India.
Rural Population in India: 68.84%
Urban Population in India :31.16%
Level of urbanization increased from 27.81% in 2001 Census to 31.16% in 2011 Census.
Poverty is largely a rural problem. More than 75 percent of the world’s poor live in rural
areas and a majority of the poor will continue to live in rural areas well into the 21st

3.3.2 Resources
3.3.3 Literacy
Due to poverty more than 75% peoples live in rural regions which directly affects to
literacy rate of India, corruption is other factor due to which people from rural area
migrates to urban region and doesn’t get their benefits, which result in more % of
illiteracy.
Literacy and poverty brings down the, development of the rural areas as people, can’t
easily accept the new technology and thus many schemes by government doesn’t seems
to worked out in many aspects.
In rural areas due to less use of public toilets and poor mentality there are more chances
of spreading disease’s and if village has lower population than they suffer due to non-
ability of PHC center.
In villages now in 21st century peoples are believing to educate girl child even in village
areas, which must. They are supported by different sectors too. Gram panchayat also
provides financial support to them. At present in every town in Anand district Sarpanch
of the villages are Woman candidates. Hence it’s been good sight point for woman
Empowerment.
This has been also vocalized in the policy of the government which says: said, ‘Rural
poverty alleviation has been the primary concern in the economic planning and
development process of the country rural development which encompasses the entire
gamut of improvement in the overall quality of life in the rural areas can be achieved
through eradication of poverty in rural areas.
The main objective of rural development has been to remove poverty of the people and
fill the widened gap between the rich and the poor. This has been also vocalized in the
policy of the government which says: said, „Rural poverty alleviation has been the
primary concern in the economic planning and development process of the country …
rural development which encompasses the entire gamut of improvement in the overall
quality of life in the rural areas can be achieved through eradication of poverty in rural
areas.
Experiences of many countries suggest that technological development fuelled by
demand has a higher dissemination rate. However, in India, technology developers for
rural areas have been catering to needs (with small improvement), rather than creating
demand. There is no industry linkage machinery to create demand-based-technology
market for rural communities. Besides, there is also an imbalance between strategies and
effective management programs.

desert, hilly or tribal areas. As far as practicable, clusters of villages would follow administrative
convergence units of Gram Panchayats and shall be within a single block/tehsil for
administrative convenience.
Tribal
For identification of the tribal clusters, the Ministry would select the leading sub districts
falling within the top 100 tribal districts of the country, based on the Scheduled Tribes
population. The selection of these sub districts would be based on parameters such as i.
Decadal growth in Tribal Population ii. Current Tribal Literacy Rate iii. Decadal growth
in Non- Farm Work force participation iv. Decadal growth in Rural Population and v.
Presence of Economic Clusters.
Non-tribal
For selection of Non- Tribal clusters, the Ministry would provide a list of leading sub
districts to each State, within which the clusters could be identified. The selection of
these sub districts by the Ministry would be based on parameters such as i. Decadal
Growth in Rural Population ii. Decadal Growth in Non-Farm work force participation iii.
Presence of Economic Clusters iv. Presence of places of Tourism and Pilgrimage
significance. v. Proximity to Transport Corridors.
SansadAdarsh Gram Yojana is a rural development program broadly focusing upon the
development in the villages which includes social development, cultural development and spread
motivation among the people on social mobilization of the village community. The programme
was launched by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi on the birth anniversary of
Jayaprakash Narayan, on11 October 2014.
Objectives –
SansadAdarsh Gram Yojana was initiated to bring the member of parliament of all the political
parties under the same umbrella while taking the responsibility of developing physical and
institutional infrastructure in villages and turn them into model villages. Under this scheme, each
member of parliament needs to choose one village each from the constituency that they
represent, except their own village or their in-law’s village and fix parameters and make it a
model village by 2019.
Due to most of the people are having regular work there has not been any implementation for
such strategic action apart from increasing facilities time to time.
In Tamil Nadu, the First State Finance Commission was constituted in April, 1994. It gave its
report in November 1996 covering the period from April, 1997 to March 2002.
Government vide G.O (Ms) No.225, Finance (Resources) Dept., dt: 2.5.1997, accepted the
following recommendations of the First State Finance Commission:
• Devolution of 8% of State’s own tax revenue (except Entertainment Tax) to rural and urban
local bodies. Out of 8%, 85% to be released as devolution grant and 15% as equalization and
incentive grant.
• The 85% devolution grant to be shared between rural and urban local bodies in the ratio of
55:45 respectively. The 15% equalization and incentive grant was apportioned torural and urban
local bodies in the ratio of 60:40 respectively.
2. Assigned Revenues
Section 167 of the Tamil Nadu Panchayats Act, 1994 provides for the levy of local cess at the
rate of Re.1 on every rupee of land revenue realized in the State. The total amount realized from
this source was distributed entirely to Village Panchayats. Similarly, Section 168 of the Act
provides for the levy of local cess surcharge at such rate which may be considered suitable but
not less than Rs.5 on every rupee of land revenue. The levy, collection and adjustment to Village
Panchayats and Panchayat Unions is done by Revenue Department in the districts.
The Tenth Finance Commission recommended an adhoc grant of Rs.71.83 Crores annually from
1996-97 to 2000-01 for the rural local bodies in Tamil Nadu to take up capital works which was
the first time when a central finance commission touched the local bodies. While releasing the
amount the Government had stipulated that the local bodies could take up capital works from out
of the Tenth Central Finance Commission’s grant by suitable contribution from its general funds.
The aim of the scheme is to integrated development of the selected villages so that they have all
required physical and social infrastructure for an all round socio-economic development.
Another objective of the plan is elimination of disparity between SCs and other communities in
terms of common socio-economic indicators such as literacy rate, completion rate of elementary
education, infant mortality rate/maternal mortality rate and ownership of productive assets.
In the past "government as provider" approach, the priorities were to secure budget allocations
and develop projects. The Housing Policy and the NCU statement implicitly give higher priority
to two other requirements: first, the reform of policies and regulations that now inhibit
development initiatives by the people; and second, more efficient resource management and the
building of institutional capacity.

1. Bharat NirmanYojana:
It was launched in 2005 for building infrastructure and basic amenities in rural areas. It
comprises of six components—rural housing, irrigation, drinking water, rural roads,
electrification and rural telephony.
2. Indira AwasYojana:
It was launched on 3rd December, 2005. The main objective of this scheme was fast
track development of cities across the country. It was focused especially on developing
efficient urban infrastructure service delivery mechanism, community participation and
accountability of urban local bodies and other agencies towards citizen.
This programme was announced in June 2009 with an objective to make the country
slum-free.
It was launched to make basic health care facilities accessible to the rural people.
The Physical infrastructure consists of a broad array of system and facilities required for
economic development at a higher community level.
Social Infrastructure is a subset of the infrastructure sector and typically includes assets that
accommodate social services. As set out below, examples of Social Infrastructure Assets include
schools, universities, hospitals, prisons and community housing etc.
It includes,

While the modern concept of sustainable development is derived mostly from the 1987
Brundtland Report, it is also rooted in earlier ideas about sustainable forest management and
twentieth century environmental concerns. As the concept developed, it has shifted to focus more
on economic development, social development and environmental protection for future
generations. It has been suggested that "the term 'sustainability' should be viewed as humanity's
target goal of human-ecosystem equilibrium (homeostasis), while 'sustainable development'
refers to the holistic approach and temporal processes that lead us to the end of sustainability".
India is endowed with abundant natural and renewable resources of energy viz., sun, wind and
biomass. The country has been able to achieve significant capacity addition of 1,367 MW
through wind farms. India now ranks fifth in the world after Germany, United States, Spain and
Denmark inthe generation of wind energy. Available renewable resources need to be exploited
by giving a commercial orientation, wherever possible. It may be necessary to continue with
subsidies in the case of socially oriented programmers to meet the energy requirements of rural
areas, particularly remote villages, which may be difficult to service through the conventional
power grids in the near future. Apart from these resources, the country has significant potential
for ocean thermal, sea wave power and tidal power.
Renewable energy plays an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. When
renewable energy sources are used, the demand for fossil fuels is reduced. Unlike fossil fuels,
non-biomass renewable sources of energy (hydropower, geothermal, wind, and solar) do not
directly emit greenhouse gases. Solar energy is commonly used on public parking meters, street
lights and the roof of buildings. Wind power has expanded quickly, its share of worldwide
electricity usage at the end of 2014 was 3.1%. Most of California's fossil fuel infrastructures are
sited in or near low-income communities, and have traditionally suffered the most from
California's fossil fuel energy system. These communities are historically left out during the
decision-making process, and often end up with dirty power plants and other dirty energy
projects that poison the air and harm the area. These toxicants are major contributors to health
problems in the communities. As renewable energy becomes more common, fossil fuel
infrastructures are replaced by renewables, providing better social equity to these communities.
Overall, and in the long run, sustainable development in the field of energy is also deemed to
contribute to economic sustainability and national security of communities, thus being
increasingly encouraged through investment policies.

In the past, villages were a usual form of community for societies that
practice subsistence agriculture, and also for some non-agricultural societies.
In many cultures, towns and cities were few, with only a small proportion of the
population living in them. The Industrial Revolution attracted people in larger numbers to
work in mills and factories; the concentration of people caused many villages to grow
into towns and cities. This also enabled specialization of labor and crafts, and
development of many trades. The trend of urbanization continues, though not always in
connection with industrialization.
"The soul of India lives in its villages", declared M. K. Gandhi[2] at the beginning of 20th
century. According to the 2011 census of India, 68.84% of Indians (around
833.1 million people) live in 640,867 different villages. [3] The size of these villages varies
considerably. 236,004 Indian villages have a population of fewer than 500, while 3,976
villages have a population of 10,000+. Most of the villages have their own temple,
mosque, or church, depending on the local religious following.
India offers astounding variety in virtually every aspect of social life. Diversities of
ethnic, linguistic, regional, economic, religious, class, and caste groups crosscut Indian
society, which is also permeated with immense urban-rural differences and gender
distinctions.

The Full Reservoir Level (FRL) of the SardarSarovar Dam is fixed at RL 138.68 metres
(455 feet). The Maximum Water Level is 140.21 metres (460 feet.) while minimum draw
down level is 110.64 metres (363 feet.). The normal tail water level is 25.91 metres (85
feet.).
The gross storage capacity of the reservoir is 0.95 M. ha.m. (7.7 MAF) while live storage
capacity is 0.58 M.ha.m. (4.75 MAF). The dead storage capacity below minimum draw
down level is 0.37 M. ha. m. (2.97 MAF). The reservoir would occupy an area of 37,000
ha. and would have a linear stretch of 214 kilometer of water and an average width of
1.77 kilometer.
The submergence at Full Reservoir Level (FRL) is 37,690 ha. (86,088 acres), which
comprises 11,279 ha. agricultural land, 13,542 ha. forests and 12,869 ha. river bed and
waste land. In all 245 villages of the three states viz. 193 Villages of Madhya Pradesh, 33
villages of Maharashtra and 19 villages of Gujarat are affected. Only 3 villages of Gujarat
are fully affected, while the remaining 16 villages are partly affected. In Madhya Pradesh,
out of 193 villages, more than 10% agricultural land will be submerged only in 79
villages, in 89 villages less than 10% agricultural land or only houses will be submerged
under FRL, due to back water of 1 in 100 years’ flood. In 25 villages, only Government
waste land will be submerged.
POWER
There are two power houses for the SardarSarovar Project (SSP). Power benefits are
shared among Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat in the ratio of 57:27:16
respectively.
The CHPH is being operated in consultation and as per advice of NCA/WREB based on
irrigation requirement of Gujarat/Rajasthan and availability of water in reservoir and
release from upstream project of Madhya Pradesh.
The energy generated from both the power houses is to be evacuated through 400 KV
level through interconnecting transformers at GIS, situated in RBPH switch yard. The
400 KV Switchyard is indoor type having Gas Insulated Switch Gear and Bus bars. The
energy is transmitted to party states i.e. Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh in the
proportion of 16:27:57 respectively through 400 KV double circuit transmission lines,
namely SSP-Kasor, SSP-Asoj, SSP-Dhule and SSP-Nagda respectively. All the
transmission lines are commissioned and charged.
The operation and maintenance of SSP power complex and transmission lines is being
done by Gujarat State Electricity Company Limited (GSECL), for which O&M
agreement between SSNNL and GSECL has been signed.
MAIN CANAL:
Narmada Main Canal is a contour canal. It is the biggest lined irrigation canal in the
world. It is about 458.318 km. long up to Gujarat -Rajasthan border. The canal extends
further in the state of Rajasthan to irrigate areas in Barmer and Jhalore districts of
Rajasthan. The Main Canal is lined with plain cement concrete to minimise seepage
losses to attain higher velocity and to control the water logging in future. The lining work
is carried out with the mechanized pavers. Such a large scale paving of concrete lining is
done for the first time in India.
The Main Canal in its journey has to negotiate several water streams, rivers, roads,
railways etc. This is possible by constructing appropriate structure on the canal. In all,
there are 634 structures on the Narmada Main Canal. Narmada Main Canal as on today is
completed up to 458 Km. and water has been flowing throught it right upto the state of
Rajasthan.
Benefits of project:
IRRIGATION:
The SardarSarovar Project will provide irrigation facilities to 18.45 lac ha. of land,
covering 3112 villages of 73 talukas in 15 districts of Gujarat. It will also irrigate
2,46,000 ha. of land in the strategic desert districts of Barmer and Jallore in Rajasthan
and 37,500 ha. in the tribal hilly tract of Maharashtra through lift. About 75% of the
command area in Gujarat is drought prone while entire command in Rajasthan is drought
prone. Assured water supply will soon make this area drought proof.
POWER:
There are two power houses viz. River Bed Power House and Canal Head Power House
with an installed capacity of 1200 MW and 250 MW respectively. The power would be
shared by three states - Madhya Pradesh - 57%, Maharashtra - 27% and Gujarat 16%.
This will provide a useful peaking power to western grid of the country which has very
limited hydel power production at present. A series of micro hydel power stations are
also planned on the branch canals where convenient falls are available.
FLOOD PROTECTION:
It will also provide flood protection to riverine reaches measuring 30,000 ha. covering
210 villages and Bharuch city and a population of 4.0 lac in Gujarat.
WILD LIFE:
Wild life sanctuaries viz. "Shoolpaneshewar wild life sanctuary" on left Bank, Wild Ass
Sanctuary in little Rann of Kachchh, Black Buck National Park at Velavadar, Great
Indian Bustard Sanctuary in Kachchh, NalSarovar Bird Sanctuary and Alia Bet at the
mouth of River will be benefited.
Mahi aqueduct:
The Mahi aqueduct, built across river Mahi, at chain age 142 km of the Narmada main
canal (NMC), is the largest aqueduct in the world.
The NMC, the largest concrete lined irrigation canal in the world, crosses many rivers on
its long journey. Some are aqueducts which take the Narmada water over the river and
some are siphons where the canal goes under the river bed.
The aqueduct is an engineering marvel and it has been selected for an award by the
Indian Institution of Bridge Engineers. The design of the structure has been done in-
house by engineers of the SardarSarovar Narmada Nigam Ltd.
Gujarat Technological University Page 92
Vishwakarma Yojana: Phase VI Vanskhiliya Village, Anand District
The works involved for the mammoth aqueduct structure is 4,30,000 cubic metre of
earthwork, 3,67,000 cubic metre of concrete and 22,900 tonne of steel for reinforcement.
The aqueduct crosses the river at a height of 25 m above the bed level of Mahi. Total
length of the structure is 602.50 metres. It has eight barrels of 6.10 x 7.6 metre size.
The length of the aqueduct spanning across the river is 600 metres, having 24 spans of 25
metres each. The height of the super structure is 110 feet above the river bed. The sub-
structure consists of 23 piers, each of 3.30 m thickness and average 25 m height.
The water flow of 1008.38 m3/s is carried across the river through superstructure of two
monoliths having total eight barrels (box structure), each of 6.1m width and 7.6m height,
supported over 63 m wide piers, and two abutments.
There should be a logical approach for providing appropriate technology based on the
availability of options, considering its technical and economical analysis.
There should be optimal space in the design considering efficiency of space, minimum
circulation space.
Economy should be considered in design of individual buildings, layouts, clusters etc.
While preparing the specifications it should be kept in mind that, cost effective construction
systems are adopted.
Energy efficiency has gained considerable importance due to energy crisis especially in
developing countries. Orientation, built–form, openings & materials play a vital role besides
landscaping / outdoor environment.
To develop an effective mechanism for providing appropriate technology based shelter
particularly to the vulnerable group and economically weaker section.
In prefabricated housing system, time is saved by the use of precast elements which are casted
off-site during the course of foundations being laid. The finishes and services can be done below
the slab immediately. While in the conventional in-situ RCC slabs, due to props and shuttering,
the work cannot be done, till they are removed. Thus, saving of time attributes to saving of
money.
In precast construction, similar types of components are produced repeatedly, resulting in
increased productivity and economy in cost too.
Since there is repeated production of similar types of components in precast construction,
therefore, it results in faster execution, more productivity and economy.
In prefabricated construction, the work at site is reduced to minimum, thereby, enhancing the
quality of work, reliability and cleanliness.
The execution is much faster than the conventional methods, thereby, reducing the time period of
construction which can be beneficial in early returns of the investment. Concept of prefabrication
/ partial prefabrication has been adopted for speedier construction, better quality components &
saving in material quantities & costs.
Some of these construction techniques & Materials for walls, roof & floor slab, doors &
windows are as follows:
In Walls:-
In the construction of walls, rammed earth, normal bricks, soil cement blocks, hollow clay
blocks, dense concrete blocks, small, medium and room size panels etc of different sizes are
used. However, bricks continue to be the backbone of the building industry. In actual
construction, the number of the bricks or blocks that are broken into different sizes to fit into
position at site is very large. This results in wastage of material poor quality. Increasing the size
of wall blocks will prove economical due to greater speed and less mortar consumption, which
can be achieved by producing low density bigger size wall blocks using industrial wastes like
blast furnace slag and fly ash. Several prefabrication techniques have been developed and
executed for walls but these medium and large panel techniques have not proved economical for
low rise buildings as compared to traditional brick work.
The plaster over mud walls gets eroded during rains, which necessitates costly annual repairs.
This can be made non erodable by the use of bitumen cutback emulsion containing mixture of
hot bitumen and kerosene oil. The mixture is pugged along with mud mortar and wheat/ rice
straw. This mortar is applied on mud wall surface in thickness of 12 mm. One or two coats of
mud cow dung slurry with cutback are applied after the plaster is dry. The maintenance cost is
low due to enhanced durability of mud walls.
By mixing of lime and fly ash in the presence of moisture, fly ash sand lime bricks are made. Fly
Ash reacts with lime at ordinary temperature and forms a compound possessing cementitious
properties. After reactions between lime and fly ash, calcium silicate hydrates are produced
which are responsible for the high strength of the compound. Bricks made by mixing lime and
fly ash are therefore, chemically bonded bricks. The bricks are manufactured with the help of
hydraulic press and are dried in the autoclave. These bricks have various advantages over the
clay bricks, It possesses adequate crushing strength, uniform shape, smooth finish and does not
require plastering and also are lighter in weight than ordinary clay bricks.
This technique is suitable in areas where stones and aggregates for the blocks are available
locally at cheaper rates. Innovative techniques of solid blocks with both lean concrete and stones
have been developed for walls. The gang-mould is developed for semi-mechanized faster
production of the blocks. In the manual process, single block moulds are used wherein the
concrete is compacted with help of a plate vibrator. With the use of a portable power screw
driven egg laying type machine, solid concrete blocks are made with higher productivity at low
cost. Six blocks of 30 x 20 x 5 cm size are cast in single operation with an output of 120-150/hr.

By and large, conventional building materials like burnt bricks, steel and cement are higher in
cost, utilize large amount of non-renewable natural resources like energy, minerals, top soil,
forest cover, etc. The continued use of such conventional materials has adverse impact on
economy and environment.
Environment friendly materials and technologies with cost effectiveness are, therefore, required
to be adopted for sustainable constructions which must fulfill some or more of the following
criterion :-

8.1 concept
1. Solid Waste: Solid wastes include solid portions of the discarded material such as glass
bottles, crockeries, plastic containers, metals and radioactive wastes. The solid wastes may be
biodegradable or non-biodegradable.
The biodegradable solid wastes are agricultural wastes, food wastes, paper, food processing by
products, manure, yard wastes etc.
The solid waste management involves disposal of solid waste to land (or ocean) or recovering
and reproducing useful substances from the waste through recycling.
After the collection of wastes, the wastes are disposed of by any one of the methods described
below:
(i) Dumping (ii) Sanitary land fill (iii) Incineration (iv) Pyrolysis (v) Composting (vi) Biogas
technology
By the process of recycling a number of useful products can be obtained from the solid wastes.
Some important products obtainable from solid wastes are described below:
2. Liquid Wastes:
Liquid wastes are the liquid part of the waste material. Liquid waste includes effluents of
industries, fertilizer and pesticide solutions from agricultural fields, leachate from
landfills, urban runoff of untreated waste water and garbage, mining wastes etc. The
liquid waste may contain nontoxic inorganic substances or toxic organic substances.
Some important liquid waste management methods are described below:
i) Dilution ii) Mechanical treatments iii) Biological treatments iv) Chemical treatments
Precipitation, Adsorption, Osmosis, Chemical oxidation
B) Removal of ammonia:
C) Effluent water can be used to grow algae and aquatic plants to produce biomass for biogas
plants.
D) The effluents containing heavy metals like cadmium, mercury, lead etc. can be purified by
growing water hyacinth plants.
E) The sewage with organic nutrients is stored in specially constructed shallow ponds called as
oxidizing or stabilizing pond. In the pond, green algae and bacteria grow in presence of sun light,
consuming organic nutrients. This water contains enough nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium
and is highly helpful for the growth of plants.
Stabilization ponds use a natural process for wastewater treatment is a combination of microbial
plants, substrates and microorganisms in a more or less artificial pond to treat wastewater.
Stabilization ponds are also known as oxidation ponds. The technique is frequently used to treat
municipal waste water, industrial waste matter, and runoff or storm water. After treatment, the
effluent may be returned to surface water or reused as irrigation water if the effluent quality is
high enough.
Anaerobic pond:
Anaerobic ponds are deep treatment ponds that exclude oxygen and encourage the growth of
bacteria, which break down the waste water. It is in the anaerobic pond, the effluent begins breaking
down in the absence of oxygen i.e. "anaerobically”. The anaerobic pond acts like an uncovered septic
tank. Anaerobic bacteria break down the organic matter in the effluent, releasing methane and carbon
dioxide. Sludge is deposited on the bottom and a crust forms on the surface.
aerobic ponds
2. Septic Tanks
A septic tank is a combined sedimentation and digestion tank where the retention time of sewage
is one to two days. During this period, settle able solids settle down to the bottom. This is
followed by anaerobic digestion of settled solids (sludge) and liquid, resulting in reasonable
reduction in the volume of sludge, reduction in biodegradable organic matter and release of gases
like carbon dioxide, methane and hydrogen sulphide. The effluent although clarified to a
largeextent, will still contain appreciable amount of dissolved and suspended put risible organic
solids and pathogens, as the efficiency is only 30-50 % for BOD and 60-70 % TSS removal.
Applicability:
Safe removal of septage from septic tank is a problem. Due to lack of any such policy
septage is disposed of in open space, low land areas or drains causing health and
environmental pollution.
Lower treatment efficiency (30-60 % BOD and SS Removal) and associated cost and space
requirements for the construction of soakage pit is comparatively higher.
Septic tank is incapability to handle hydraulic shock loads, as peak flow disturbs the settling
zone and causes high suspended solids in the effluent.
1. PILE METHOD:
Composting is a simple way to add nutrient-rich humus which fuels plant growth and restores
vitality to depleted soil. It's also free, easy to make and good for the environment. Starting Your
Compost Pile:
Layering:
Layer 1- The organic materials layer can be vegetable wastes, sod, grass clippings, leaves, hay,
straw, chopped corncobs, corn stalks, untreated sawdust, twigs less than ½ inch in diameter, or
garden debris. Remember the proper C: N ratio and mix accordingly. Your bulkier organic
materials do best in the first ground level layer. As your pile settles, these items tend to allow for
more air spaces. Shred or chop up materials for greater surface area. The organic layers should
Gujarat Technological University Page 119
Vishwakarma Yojana: Phase VI Vanskhiliya Village, Anand District
be between 6-8 inches thick. Materials that tend to mat such as grass clippings should be either
mixed in or placed in 2-3 inch layers within this 6-8-inch layer.
Layer 2 - Animal manures, fertilizers or starters serve as activators that accelerate the ignition or
initial heating of your pile. They all provide a nitrogen source for the microbial community.
Some provide proteins and enzymes. If manure from a grain eating animal is available, add 1-2
inchlayer. If this isnot available, add one cup of 10-10-10 or 12-12-12 commercial fertilizer per
25 square feet. If using a commercial starter, follow label directions.
Care:
Temperature plays an important role in the composting process. Decomposition occurs most
rapidly between 110° to 160°F. Within two weeks, a properly made compost pile will reach these
temperatures. Now, you will notice your pile settling which is a good sign that the pile is
working properly.
2. NADEP METHOD:
The NADEP method of making miracle compost was first invented by a farmer named N.D.
Pandharipande living in Maharashtra (India). The method, which has become popular among the
farmers in Western India, now bears his name.
The process basically involves placing selected layers of different types of compostable materials
in a simple, mud-sealed structure designed with brick and mud water. The system permits
conversion of approximately 1 kg of animal dung into 40 kg of rich compost which can then be
applied directly to the field. The multiplication factor is significant in view of the fact that in the
tropics, there is rapid decomposition of organic materials in the soil. This organic matter must be
replaced and replenished if agricultural fertility is not to go on declining. The problem is there
that a scarcity of compostable materials, particularly animal dung, prevailing within the country.
Thus, even if all available organic materials, including dung, were religiously and scrupulously
collected, they would still not be sufficient to replace the organic constituents of the vast
quantities of India’s fast-degrading soils. The NADEP method of composting actually enables
the farmers to get around the difficulty of the generation of mass and to increase the quantity of
compost rapidly within a given frame of time and without any significant additional expense.
3. BANGLORE METHOD:
This is an anaerobic method conventionally carried out in pits. Formerly the waste was
anaerobically stabilized in pits where alternate layers of MSW and night soil were laid. The pit
is filled and a final soil layer is laid to prevent fly breeding, entry of rain water into the pit and
for conservation of the released energy. The material can decompose for 4 to 6 months after
which the stabilized material is taken out and used as compost.
Case Studies and Best Practices in Solid and Liquid Waste Management in
Rural Areas
Urbanization brings prosperity but at the same time creates environmental problems like
pollution, accumulation of solid waste and poor sanitation. Use of tetra packs, plastic plates, cups
and bags, tin cans and similar throw-away items has increased in the last decade as has the
amount of organic waste. In many Indian states, rural areas are fast catching up with urban areas
in generating solid waste. Lack of proper waste collection, segregation and management systems
and poor sanitary conditions in both urban and rural areas are aggravating health problems. In
this context, solid waste management is an area of challenge and of innovation for urban
planners and city corporations. Small and big pilots, with different degrees of sustainability and
success, are operational in many parts of the country. A zero waste management (ZWM) project
by NGO Exnora Green Cross and the District Rural Development Agency (DRDA), initially
piloted with UNICEF, in Tamil Nadu’s Vellore district is an example of a successful solid waste
management programme and its benefits.
The Vellore solid waste management project1 is now managed by village Panchayats supported
by Residential Welfare Associations and SHGs. Each family pays Rs 20/- and each shop pays Rs
50/- as waste collection charge. The funds collected from monthly subscriptions and sale of
inorganic waste and organic manure are used for paying the street beautifiers and supervisors.
Gandhi Nagar village Panchayat generated an income of Rs 10,646/- during the financial year
2005-06 by selling organic waste and Rs 1, 62,289/- from inorganic waste. The pilots in Vellore
district are successful because informed communities are willing to pay for a clean environment
managed by local youth who take pride in beautifying their street and get paid for it too. Equally
crucial to the success is the full involvement of local bodies and their commitment to making a
difference.
The Fathepura in Meshana district of Gujarat is a village having a total human population of
1200 in 214 households and also cattle population of 1400. This village, which is being headed
by Sri Jai Singh Bhai K.Chaudhary (Gram Pradhan) has presented a unique example of grey
water management in the village.
Main features:
The village has a deep bore tube well of 8” diameter and 800 feet depth. Water is pumped
through a 35hp pump to an overhead reservoir of 40000 lit capacity, four times in a day, i.e.
160000 lit per day water is being used by the village. Out of this, about 40000 lit is being
consumed for the cattle population. Though, the actual quantity of greywater production is not
calculated, however it can be assumed that 80% of the total water use will come out as
greywater. Thus, the estimated quantity of greywater generation in the village would be around
96000 lit per day.
Mode of transport is a term used to distinguish substantially different ways to perform. The
different modes of transport are air, water, and land transport, which includes rail, road and off-
road transport. Other modes also exist, including pipelines, cable transport, and space transport.
Human-powered transport and animal-powered transport are sometimes regarded as their own
mode, but these normally also fall into the other categories. In general, transportation is used for
the movement of people, animals, and other things. Each mode of transport has a fundamentally
different technological solution, and some require a separate environment. Each mode has its
own infrastructure, vehicles, and operations.
Road:
A road is an identifiable route of travel, usually surfaced with gravel, asphalt or concrete, and
supporting land passage by foot or by a number of vehicles.
There are a range of different types of transport available to us; the type we choose to use will
depend on the purpose for travelling, length of the journey and anyone you may be travelling
with. Increasingly cost is becoming a deciding factor in the types of transport we use, especially
due to the increase in fuel costs we all wish to avoid.
Car
The most popular type of transport, most people use cars daily for short and long journeys. Cars
have many advantages such as their ease of use and convenience, getting you exactly where you
want to be without additional buses, trains or walking needed to get to your final destination. To
save money you can carpool with friends or work colleagues when possible.
Bicycles
Numbers of cyclists are fast increasing as it is a cheap and environmentally friendly method of
transport. There are now incentive schemes which businesses can run, making bikes cheaper for
their employees who are going to use them to travel to work. The main disadvantage is being
exposed to the elements on wet days!
Buses
Buses are available in all cities, towns and most villages. They are ideal for those short journeys
from one part of a town to another. Short journeys may take longer than expected on a bus due to
the frequent stops and routes which cover a lot of the area to accommodate everyone. Buses are
however a cheap method of transport, if you use the buses a lot there are a range of travel cards,
passes and long-term tickets to help you save more money!
Trains
Rail transport is used for both goods and people and is a popular method of public transport.
Many towns have a train station but there are still a lot more than don’t which would make
travelling by train difficult to get to some destinations and will require further transportation by
bus, car or taxi. Shopping around and buying your tickets in advance will help you save money
which may make travelling by train more affordable than a car or even bus.
Aero planes
Domestic travel by air in the UK, thanks to low cost airlines is becoming increasingly popular with
many, especially for business trips with lots of advantages making it a relatively simple type of
transport to use. Aero planes can travel from one city to another in a matter of hours, much faster
than bus, car or even train. The main problem many have is the location of the airports and needing
to use an additional method of transport to get to and from the airport and your destination.
Boats
Travelling by sea is usually by ferry or cruise ship. Ferries are often used for short sea crossings to
the continent or many of the islands around mainland Britain such as the Isle of Man. You can take
your vehicle with you to use when you reach your destination which can make this a more
convenient option compared to a plane or train.
Purpose of Transport:
Freight & Passenger movement and mobility are core components of a transport system.
Drainage can be either natural or artificial. Many areas have some natural drainage; this means
that excess water flows from the farmers' fields to swamps or to lakes and rivers.
There are two types of artificial drainage: surface drainage and subsurface drainage.
Surface drainage:
Surface drainage is the removal of excess water from the surface of the land. This is normally
accomplished by shallow ditches, also called open drains. The shallow ditches discharge into
larger and deeper collector drains. In order to facilitate the flow of excess water toward the
drains, the field is given an artificial slope by means of land grading. It may consist of open
ditches that are laid out by eye judgment, leading from one wet spot to another and finally into a
nala or river. This is often called natural system.
In level areas, a collecting ditch may need to be installed at one side of the field and shallow
shaped ditches are constructed to discharge into the collecting ditch.The field ditches should be
laid out parallel and spaced 15 to 45 meters or more apart as required by the soil surface
conditions and crop to be grown. They should be 30 to 60 cm deep depending upon the depth of
the collecting ditch. Farming operations should be parallel to the field ditches.
Subsurface drainage:
Subsurface drainage is the removal of water from the root zone. It is accomplished by deep open
drains or buried pipe drains.
Drain pipes are made of clay, concrete or plastic. They are usually placed in trenches by
machines. In clay and concrete pipes (usually 30 cm long and 5 - 10 cm in diameter) drainage
water enters the pipes through the joints. Flexible plastic drains are much longer (up to 200 m)
and the water enters through perforations distributed over the entire length of the pipe.
Open drains use land that otherwise could be used for crops. They restrict the use of machines.
They also require a large number of bridges and culverts for road crossings and access to the
fields. Open drains require frequent maintenance (weed control, repairs, etc.).In contrast to open
drains, buried pipes cause no loss of cultivable land and maintenance requirements are very
limited. The installation costs, however, of pipe drains may be higher due to the materials, the
equipment and the skilled manpower involved.
A sub surface or underground drainage will remove excess soil water. It percolates in to
themselves, just like open drains. These underground drains afford the great advantages that the
surface of the field is not cut off, no wastage of lad and do not interfere with farm operations. On
the other hand, they are costly to lie and are not effective in slowly permeable clay soils.
The Amarapur in Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra is a village having total human population
of 3539 in 746 households. Before the underground PVC drainage, Amarapur village having
open type of RCC drainage system which collect water from toilet, kitchen etc. and transport it
into outside to village.
Problem 2 80% of available water is converted in to wastewater which create following problems
in Amarapur.
Strategy
To solve this problem Amarapur Grampanchayat decided to make action plan, Gram panchayat
staff visited experimental model at Muthevadgaon. With the consent of all low cost PVC
drainage Model is accepted and granted through ZP engineers. For Funding this Plan is put in
front of planning department for year 2014-2015. Planning department gives approval under
BRGF scheme and gives work order to Shevgaon Panchayat Samiti. The pipeline work is started
in January 2014 and completed in August 2015. Stages of Development
Main feature:
In this system waste water goes through Underground covered PVC pipe line in place of open
drainage system. After the construction of silt catcher at household level it relates to 3” PVC
pipe and finally connected with 6” PVC pipe with the main line. In house silt catcher should be
constructed near the plate farm made for washing purposes and pipe slope should be kept approx.
1:200. Instead of bends it is better to provide chambers in turning points of pipe lines. This
Waste water is collected in waste water stabilization pond located in outside of village.
This stabilization pond is specially designed for stored wastewater for reuse (irrigation purpose).
Amarapur gram panchayat having 5-acre land which is unused due to water scarcity. Now using
this wastewater this land is used to cultivate different crops through a joint venture with a local
farmer. Due to this great decision of gram panchayat farmer get permanent employment and
panchyat gets extra revenue from agricultural commodity sale.
For proper O& M, the depth of underground drainage should be at least 60cm so that PVC pipe
line is safe from any surface pressure. Silt catcher should be clean at least once in a weak. Time
to time water should flow in the drains. The important aspect for the O&M is active people
participation and awareness in the community.
Benefits
This project is very much appreciated by users in Amarapur because against open drain system,
close drain system is more useful and due to low maintenance cost this system is economical
viable. This system keeps surrounding environment more clean and safe against health hazards.
Pipes were buried 60cm below the ground surface so this system is more sustainable than open
drain system. Socially this system is more acceptable than any another because house holding
using the system had developed participatory approach and developed more capacity of
community in respect to economy, relationship and awareness.
As the system is closed, materials like garbage, road side solid wastes, plastics, building
materials etc. will not find access to the system.
Operation and maintenance becomes easily manageable by Gram Panchayat
Construction cost is comparably low as cost for surface drain.
Road space is fully utilized.
A flexible, or asphalt, or Tarmac pavement typically consists of three or four layers. For a
four-layer flexible pavement, there is a surface course, base course, and subbase course
constructed over a compacted, natural soil subgrade. When building a three-layer flexible
pavement, the subbase layer is not used and the base course is placed directly on the
natural subgrade. A flexible pavement's surface layer is constructed of hot-mix asphalt
(HMA). Unsterilized aggregates are typically used for the base course; however, the base
course could also be stabilized with asphalt, Foamed Bitumen, <Road stone Recycling>
Portland cement, or another stabilizing agent. The subbase is generally constructed from
local aggregate material, while the top of the subgrade is often stabilized with cement or
lime.
With flexible pavement, the highest stress occurs at the surface and the stress decreases
as the depth of the pavement increases. Therefore, the highest quality material needs to be
used for the surface, while lower quality materials can be used as the depth of the
pavement increases. The term "flexible" is used because of the asphalts ability to bend
and deform slightly, then return to its original position as each traffic load is applied and
removed. It is possible for these small deformations to become permanent, which can
lead to rutting in the wheel path over an extended time. The service life of a flexible
pavement is typically designed in the range of 20 to 30 years. Required thicknesses of
each layer of a flexible pavement vary widely depending on the materials used,
magnitude, number of repetitions of traffic loads, environmental conditions, and the
desired service life of the pavement. Factors such as these are taken into consideration
during the design process so that the pavement will last for the designed life without
excessive distresses.
Rigid pavements are generally used in constructing airports and major highways, such as
those in the interstate highway system. In addition, they commonly serve as heavy-duty
industrial floor slabs, port and harbor yard pavements, and heavy-vehicle park or terminal
pavements. Like flexible pavements, rigid highway pavements are designed as all-
weather, long-lasting structures to serve modern day high-speed traffic. Offering high
quality riding surfaces for safe vehicular travel, they function as structural layers to
distribute vehicular wheel loads in such a manner that the induced stresses transmitted to
the subgrade soil are of acceptable magnitudes. Portland cement concrete (PCC) is the
most common material used in the construction of rigid pavement slabs. The reason for
its popularity is due to its availability and the economy.
Rigid pavements must be designed to endure frequently repeated traffic loadings. The
typical designed service life of a rigid pavement is between 30 and 40 years, lasting about
twice as long as a flexible pavement.
One major design consideration of rigid pavements is reducing fatigue failure due to the
repeated stresses of traffic. Fatigue failure is common among major roads because a
typical highway will experience millions of wheel passes throughout its service life. In
addition to design criteria such as traffic loadings, tensile stresses due to thermal energy
must also be taken into consideration. As pavement design has progressed, many
highway engineers have noted that thermally induced stresses in rigid pavements can be
just as intense as those imposed by wheel loadings. Due to the relatively low tensile
Rigid pavements are generally constructed in three layers - a prepared subgrade, base or
subbase, and a concrete slab. The concrete slab is constructed according to a designed
choice of plan dimensions for the slab panels, directly influencing the intensity of thermal
stresses occurring within the pavement. In addition to the slab panels, temperature
reinforcements must be designed to control cracking behavior in the slab. Joint spacing is
determined by the slab panel dimensions.
Roads have been existing in India for the last 5000 years. In early stages of Indian history,
Ashoka and Chandragupta made efforts to construct roads. But the real progress was made
during the Mughal period.
Asphalt –One of the most popular types of construction ever since its inception in the
early1920s is asphalt paving. In this construction technique, a layer of asphalt is laid on top
of an equally thick gravel base. Advantages of this form of road construction are that the
pavement produces relatively little noise, its relative low cost compared to other materials,
and that it is relatively easy to repair and maintain as well. However, asphalt is known to be
significantly less durable and strong than most other choices, and isn’t the best for the
environment either.
Concrete –Concrete is another popular choice for roadways, though it is typically only
usedfor local roads and no other types of construction. There are three major types of
concrete road surfaces, JPCP, JRCP, and CRCP; the distinguishing feature between the three
being the joint system that is used to help prevent cracks from forming. Concrete is more
long-lasting than asphalt and significantly stronger as well, but is quite expensive to lay and
maintain.
Composite –Composite materials are often used in types of construction that are more
relatedto maintenance, recycling, and rehabilitation. Composite materials are combinations of
both asphalt and concrete, and are typically employed in one of two methods. Asphalt
overlays literally are placed over a damaged surface, or alternatively pavement may be
cracked and seated instead, forming a true new surface.
Recycling –There are three typical types of construction techniques related to recycling
thesurface of distressed or damaged pavement. Rubblizing, Cold/Hot in-place Recycling, and
Full-depth Reclamation. Rubblizing involves reducing the road to gravel and then applying a
new surface, both hot and cold in-place recycling relies on using bituminous pavement to
reinforce the road (at different temperatures and admixtures, of course), and Full-depth
reclamation involves both total pulverization and the addition of binding agents or other
additives.
The factors in the physical environment that are important to health include harmful substances,
such as air pollution or proximity to toxic sites (the focus of classic environmental
epidemiology); access to various health-related resources (e.g., healthy or unhealthy foods,
recreational resources, medical care); and community design and the “built environment” (e.g.,
land use mix, street connectivity, transportation systems).
Factors in the social environment that are important to health include those related to safety,
violence, and social disorder in general, and more specific factors related to the type, quality, and
stability of social connections, including social participation, social cohesion, social capital, and
the collective efficacy of the neighborhood (or work) environment. Social participation and
integration in the immediate social environment (e.g., school, work, neighborhood) appear to be
important to both mental and physical health What also seems important is the stability of social
connections, such as the composition and stability of households and the existence of stable and
supportive local social environments or neighborhoods in which to live and work.
Other Five environmental factors affecting agricultural production:
Rainfall
Temperature
Wind
Light/sunshine
Rural India faces a severe technology deficit. While there are other serious shortages power,
water, health facilities, roads, etc., these are known and recognized. However, the role of
technology in solving these and other problems is but barely acknowledged, and the actual
availability of technology in rural areas is, at best, marginal. The so-called digital divide is
widely spoken and written about; the technology divide is hardly mentioned. Yet, this disparity is
arguably more important, as it has far greater impact.
In irrigated areas (a third of the total arable land), managing the release and distribution of water
is critical for maximizing production. Sophisticated power transmission systems use information
and communication technologies to effectively optimize and monitor the distribution of
electricity. Despite many similarities, there is hardly any use of ICT in water distribution.
In rain-fed areas, the construction of bunds and check-dams is vital. Choosing the right location
for such water-harvesting structures can be greatly facilitated by using satellite remote sensing
data, as pilot projects have already demonstrated. Where irrigation is from wells, the simple
technology for the pump to be automatically switched on when power is available (and a timed
switch-off) so common in cities is still rare in villages. As a result, the farmer has to manually
switch on the pump generally in the middle of the night, when power becomes available.
Cold storage and cold-chains for transportation to market is of great importance for many
agricultural products particularly, fruits and vegetables but are non-existent. These are clearly
technologies with an immediate return on investment, and benefits for all: the farmer, the end-
consumer, the technology provider. However, regulatory and structural barriers are holding back
investments.
Information related to commodity prices, transportation, agricultural practices, weather, etc., are
crucial for the farmer. Technology can now provide this easily and instantaneously either at a
village computer kiosk or on a mobile handset.
Power is a key requirement in rural areas, for agricultural as well as non-agricultural and
domestic uses. Technology is now capable of providing reliable power at comparatively low cost
in a decentralized manner. This needs to be upgraded and scaled in a big way, with emphasis on
renewable and non-polluting technologies. An all-terrain, reliable and low-cost means of
transporting goods and people is an essential need for rural areas. In addition, it must be robust,
low-maintenance and near-friendly. The bullock-cart and the tractor-trailer are present vehicles
of choice. Surely, technology can provide a better, cheaper and more efficient solution.
Water is known to be responsible for a majority of the health problems in rural areas. While
many technologies exist for water-purification, there is need for developing context-specific
technologies (ideally, low-cost, reliable and not power-dependent) for providing safe drinking
water. Another vital area largely untouched by technology is sanitation. On the other hand, fuel
for cooking has drawn attention (efficient smoke-less chulas; briquettes, solar-cookers), but cost-
efficient technologies that fit the socio-cultural milieu are yet awaited.
Teachers work with students to teach them how to be Global Citizens. Global Citizens will bring
international perspectives to their ideas creating a mindset that they are deeply connected to
everyone in the world. Global citizens will embrace cultural and human diversity. Many schools
are leaning towards adding global education to the curricula in order to build global citizens for a
hope for a better society.
Global Education deals with Social Justice Issues across the world. Social Justice is taught to
advocate for a better society in which people have equal accessibility to resources and equal
treatment regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, class, or able-bloodedness. By
creating a comfortable community, teachers can spark conversations with students that explore
social justice issues locally and around the world to help understand the complexities of
societies. Many teachers of Global Education expect students to be active in their community
and challenge social justice issues outside of school. This can be done through community
service engagement.
8.1.7 Suggestions for the Solving Civil Related Issues and Concerns and
Challenges
In order to meet the challenges of municipal solid waste management, there is a need for
technological advancements, community awareness and implementation of good waste
management practices. Increasing public awareness about degrading health and environment is
becoming a cause of concern for society. It is putting more and more pressure on Central and
state level governing bodies to find sustainable solutions to the problem of municipal solid waste
management. There is a „need‟ to address the problem at the grass root level to find lasting
solutions. It can be seen that the current laws and regulations are unable to make an impact for
obtaining sound environment. Either the laws are not well understood or unable to implement
successfully. Loopholes can be identified in the legal regime and there is a need for strictness in
application of the laws to see a change in the future. Providing municipal services and clean
environment is the primary responsibility of State municipalities. Previous attempts made by the
government at the central and state levels have been noteworthy but insufficient. The efforts
made by local bodies, citizens and government together are visible and worth replicating, yet
there is a need to stop tolerating cheap and dirty practices of waste disposal and pay attention to
environment and health. Hence, there is an urgent need for better policies and legislative changes
that promote waste minimization by collectively promoting responsibility towards environment
and match with the changing conditions of lifestyle patterns of the Indian Society
The EcoSan toilet is a closed system that does not need water, so is an alternative to leach
pit toilets in places where water is scarce or where the water table is high and the risk of
groundwater contamination is increased. The toilet is based on the principle of recovery
and recycling of nutrients from excreta tocreate a valuable resource for agriculture. When
the pit of an EcoSan toilet fills up it is closed and sealed. After about eight to nine
months, the faeces are completely composted to organic manure and can be used on
farms. When the first pit is closed, users can switch to using the second pit. The pictures
below show how the manure is used onfarms.
We initially used poly-fibre squatting pans for the EcoSan toilets, but because these were
not available in Chhattisgarh and had to be purchased from another state the cost per
toilet increased to around 16,000 rupees. This cost was not viable, because it made it
difficult to get support from the government's Nirmal Bharat Abhiyanprogramme
(formerly the Total Sanitation Campaign), which can provide up to 10,000 rupees for the
construction of household toilets.
To ensure the sustainability ofthese toilets it was therefore important to reduce the unit
cost. Thus, instead of procuring the traditional poly-fibre pans, masons were trained to
construct the floor of the toilets as EcoSan pans. This in-situ construction reduced costs
substantially to just 12,000 rupees per unit, which could be further decreased by reducing
the size of the pit, building the super-structure from locally available material such as
bamboo, or making super-structure walls thinner. Together, these changes brought the
cost within the range required by the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyanprogramme.

Renewable energy sources can be used for the purpose of energy conservation and to
reduce load on conventional energy sources.
Solar Energy Sources can be used for electricity purposes in schools and other
infrastructure.
Internal road quality can be improved to provide better transportation facilities by using
waste material as filling material which is produced within the village.
We have tried to develop sustainable and economic design as per our knowledge and hard
work from visiting the villages to designing the proper design. In this phase we have focused
mainly on Data collection and done the survey of village.
Employment is the main solution for people who do not have the income to meet their basic
needs, often in villages that have no energy access, employment Opportunities are the only
sustainable means of reducing and eradicating poverty. The preceding essays argue that
energy provision fosters employment opportunities. Moreover, employment creation and
entrepreneurial activity mobilize the most abundant yet under-utilized resource in poor
countries – the people for development. People who constitute resources on the supply side
also provide markets on the demand side. This interactive causation between supply and
demand is a potential source of economic growth that highlights the importance of domestic
markets in the process of development.
Our main motto is to develop the undeveloped villages and rural areas with reference to the
ideal village. Long-range planning has taken place in a public forum. The support of the
community can also foster improved implementation opportunities. An approach that will be
used successfully when planning for the future of a community involves preceding the
planning process with an exercise designed to develop vision of the future for the
“VishwakarmaYojana”. By developing Rural India, the future scenario for urbanization can
be change in Sustainable manner

In the village 60 % roads are CC and RCC and rest is kutcha roads.
School
In the village 2 primary school and 1 secondary school for boys and girls with well condition
In the village only two elevated tanks is available. In summer season lack of drinking water
problem is arise so we proposed a underground sump for water reserve.
In the village most people relying on the farming so we decided to give a farmer help center
to help farmers so they can understand more about new technology.
We will give design of skill development classes for the village where lots of activity
villagers do like women empowerment classes, karate classes, painting class etc.
In village there is no provision of organic waste controller so we decided to give a bio gas
plant. Due to this organic waste can be used for producing bio gas.
In the village no provision for storage for rain water and no small pond available so we will
give an artificial pond with jogging track.
15.3 Suggestions / Benefit of the Villagers about new path technology / Designs
proposed by the students
There are following structures need to build up to Progress of village and their people:
Physical Infrastructure Facilities should need such as: Higher secondary school, closed
drainage system, panchayat building, sanitation facilities, Child Welfare center etc.
Social Infrastructure Facilities should need such as: Police station, hospitals, community
Housing, General market, etc.
Socio-Cultural Infrastructure Facilities should need such as: Govt. grocery shop,
Community hall, Library, Auditorium, Recreational activities, pick up stand etc.
Sustainable Infrastructure Facilities should need such as: Green building, organic waste
controller, Natural Resources (petrol, diesel), Solar system, Biogas plant, Rain Water
Harvesting, etc.
If these structures available in the village, Villager can easily get the advantages of the system
and they not need to depend on other town, good drainage system and sanitation facility in
village ensure the good health and well-being of people
15.4 Design Proposals with the Section, Elevation, Measurement, Costing, Any
other points to civil designs
15.4.1 Sustainable design – Ground Water Recharge by Vertical Shaft
Introduction
Main source of water in village is ground water. Due to excessive use and population
expansion ground water level is depleting. To maintain round water level and conserve it
for future generation Ground water recharge is necessary.
Design
In an Artificial groundwater recharge we will use vertical recharge shaft method. In this
shaft the top portion we use PVC ball & Rubber lip which is help in whenever river water
level gone up & rubble lip will automatically open fill with water.
The diameter of shaft is 0.45m. Depth of PVC pipe is 15 M. It should end in more
permeable strata below the top impermeable strata. It may not touch water table.
To begin with in PVC pipe on top portion provide rubber valve. Below it 0.20 Inches
diameter screen is placed to remove rags, paper and plastic to prevent damage.
In PVC pipe 10 M deep filtration bucket is connected with bolt. In which there are three
layer of fine, gravel and coarse material placed.
At bottom there is one extra screen provided which is prevent filter material to the ground.
In PVC pipe provide hole to spread water in to confined aquifer.

There is not any market in village. People have to travel nearby villages to purchase agriculture
products. It enables to sell agriculture produts directly to the consumers which increases income
of farmers. It will yield revenue for village as people from outside will come for shopping.
Proposed design consists of two offices for administrative work and one closed storage area.
It is covered with roof on top. Market area provides 4 raised platforms for sellers to arrange their
items and way for public in between them as shown in figure.
Any public project is undertaken to satisfy necessity or to provide comfort to people. Rural
projects are mainly undertaken to satisfy need of people. In public project the main aspect is
funding i.e. whether it is funded by Govt. or Private firm or both. Implementation of project
mainly depends on finance.
Vanskhiliya village is agriculture village. Main source of income for village authority is from tax
collected from farmers. For implementation of any project implementation Village authority
(Gram Panchayat) alone is not capable. It need help form District authority or State Govt. or any
private firm.

This will provide sustainability to village. This project may be implemented on the basis of PPP
model. There is a sugar mill near village which can finance this project as it will receive water at
very low rate as compared to current rates.
There is not any building or public space in a village where social gathering functions can be
organized. So it is necessary to provide community hall in a village which enables social
gatherings of villagers on the special occasions like marriages, festivals etc. Community hall also
enables to organize awareness programmes, seminars, discussions for village problems etc. It
eliminates social injustice in a village as all the villagers gather on same place.
Funding of this may be done by District authority or State Govt. or may be any private firm or
person can undertake this project.

Using local groundwater, though of poor quality becomes the only long term solution for many
areas of the country. Treatment of this local groundwater is essential since various problems of
biological and chemical contamination affect these sources. The important question is what kind
of water treatment would best suit the local needs and adapt to local culture, be within
affordability of the users and as a technology be reasonably adept to maintenance and long-term
upkeep.
Fluoride, Arsenic, Nitrate, Salinity and biological contamination are broadly the main pollutants
that need to be removed by any water treatment for drinking. Add to these, individual and
cultural factors such as colour, odour, taste and smell. Different water treatment technologies
have emerged catering to specific purposes in the past few decades. A popular technology that
gained popularity in the past 2 decades has been biofilters that can be fitted to the tap. This
technology guaranteed with-flow removal of biological contaminants without requiring any
storage and at no extra time for treatment. Variants of this technology are still popular in many
areas that suffer only from biological contamination. But when it comes to removing chemical
contaminants, the need remained. Specific filters such as defluoridation (Activated Alumina,
Resin) have been developed, and they are effective in areas where Fluoride is the only problem
with water contamination. But, removal of other salts was still a question. The one technology
till now that has been able to address all these problems together has been that of Reverse
Osmosis (RO). The major question with RO has been that of cost and handling of effluent
(reject) water, both of which present constraints to adoption and wider spread of this technology.
The principle of Osmosis and Reverse Osmosis is based on semi-permeable membrane science.
Osmosis3 and Reverse Osmosis are important diffusional processes through a semipermeable
membrane, driven by concentration difference and pressure respectively. The natural force that
drives the water through the semi-permeable membrane is called ‘osmotic pressure’, and the
process is called ‘osmosis’. The concept of Reverse Osmosis came to light in the middle of
1950’s and can be considered a need-based invention. Literally the two phrases signify just the
opposite process, however thermodynamically they are similar. In osmosis, the solvent (water)
flows to solution (salt-water) through semipermeable membrane, whereas in reverse osmosis, the
flow of water is from solution (salt-water) to solvent (water) by applying pressure on solution
(salt-water) side. In both these cases, only solvent (water) molecules migrate from one side to
other. The principle of RO is shown in Figure.
Reverse Osmosis is a process that uses semi-permeable spiral wound membranes to separate and
remove Dissolved Solids, Organic, Pyrogens, Submicron colloidal matter and Bacteria from
water. Inlet water is delivered under pressure through the membrane, where water permeates the
minute pores of the membrane and is delivered as purified water. Impurities in the water are
concentrated in the reject stream and flushed to the drain. Reverse Osmosis is capable of
removing 90-98 per cent of the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), 99 per cent of the Organics
(Including pyrogens), and 99 per cent of all Bacteria. Currently available membranes can
eliminate as much as 99 per cent of the mineral content of the water in one pass. It is
advantageously used to remove water from the concentrated solution. Since the cost of RO
treatment increases very little with increased TDS, it is economically attractive for the
desalination of both brackish water supplies at TDS concentrations of 10,000 ppm and seawater
supplies at 45,000 ppm. Along with TDS RO process removes fluoride proportionately. If TDS
is at tolerable level and fluoride content is high then one can use special alum-resin filter, works
under gravitational force. A typical RO system consists of pre-treatment, high-pressure feed
pump(s), an 3-2-1 array of membranes housed in pressure vessels, and a network of piping and
valves to divide the feed water and collect the permeate product. The process utilises four
different configurations, namely plate and frame, tubular, spiral and hollow fine fibre.
Composting is any system of mixing and decaying natural wastes (manure, garbage, etc.) in a
pile or pit, so as to obtain a product resembling what the forest makes on its floor. Compost is
very rich in humus. Humus is the final state of decomposing organic matter. It is humus which
feeds the soil microbes and improves the texture of the soil. It makes the soil easier to work, have
better aeration and absorb and holds more water. Nutrients are held best by a soil with good
sponge structure. Compost provides nutrients for plant growth and the humic acid in compost
helps release locked up nutrients.
The Indore compost pile is built 5 to 10 feet wide, 5 feet high and any length. Wooden stakes 3
or 4 inches in diameter and 6 feet tall, are set two feet apart along the centre of the pile. These
will serve to allow air into the pile.
The materials which can be used in this method are plant, animal, and garden wastes, kitchen
waste, dustpan waste, wood ashes, weed cleanings from roadside ditches, bagasse, saw dust, and
any other kind of organic materials that can be found in large enough quantities.
The first layer is of straw or brush about 12 inches thick. This provides a base for the pile. Then
the heap is built in layers; first a 6 inch layer of green matter such as weeds, crop wastes, kitchen
waste, then a layer of animal manure, less if poultry manure is used, followed by a thin layer of
soil. These layers are repeated until the pile is 5 feet high. Each layer is watered so as to
resemble a squeezed out sponge. A pile is turned after six weeks, and again after 12 weeks to
allow air to penetrate all parts of the pile. The compost should be ready to use in 3 months.
Rooftop rainwater harvesting (RTRWH) is the most common technique of rainwater harvesting
(RWH) for domestic consumption. In rural areas, this is most often done at small-scale. It is a
simple, low-cost technique that requires minimum specific expertise or knowledge and offers
many benefits. Rainwater is collected on the roof and transported with gutters to a storage
reservoir, where it provides water at the point of consumption or can be used for recharging a
well or the aquifer. Rainwater harvesting can supplement water sources when they become
scarce or are of low quality like brackish groundwater or polluted surface water in the rainy
season. However, rainwater quality may be affected by air pollution, animal or bird droppings,
insects, dirt and organic matter. Therefore regular maintenance (cleaning, repairs, etc.) as well as
a treatment before water consumption (e.g. filtration or/and disinfection) are very important.
The delivery system from rural rooftop catchment usually consists of gutters hanging from the
sides of the roof sloping towards a down pipe and tank. Guttering is used to transport rainwater
from the roof to the storage vessel. Guttering comes in a wide variety of shapes and forms,
ranging from the factory made PVC type similar as the pipes used in water distribution systems
to homemade guttering using bamboo or folded metal sheet. Guttering is usually fixed to the
building just below the roof and catches the water as it falls from the roof.
Debris, dirt, dust and droppings will collect on the roof of a building or other collection area.
When the first rains arrive, this unwanted matter would be washed into the tank. This will cause
contamination of the water and the quality will be reduced. Many RWH systems therefore
incorporate a system for diverting this ‘first flush’ water so that it does not enter the tank. These
systems are called first flush devices.
The simpler ideas are based on a manually operated arrangement whereby the inlet pipe is
moved away from the tank inlet and then replaced again once the initial first flush has been
diverted. This method has obvious drawbacks in that there has to be a person present who will
remember to move the pipe. Other, more sophisticated methods provide a much more elegant
means of rejecting the first flush water, training material). But practitioners often recommend
that very simple, easily maintained systems be used, as these are more likely to be repaired if
failure occurs.
A coarse filter, preferably made of nylon or a fine mesh, can also be used to remove dirt and
debris before the water enters the tank.
18.5 Five: A Real – Time Irrigation Control System for Precision Agriculture
Using WSN in Indian Agricultural Sectors
India is the agriculture based country. Our ancient people completely depended on the
agricultural harvesting. Agriculture is a source of livelihood of majority Indians and has great
impact on the economy of the country. In dry areas or in case of inadequate rainfall, irrigation
becomes difficult. So, it needs to be automated for proper yield and handled remotely for farmer
safety. Increasing energy costs and decreasing water supplies point out the need for better water
management. Irrigation management is a complex decision- making process to determine when
and how much water to apply to a growing crop to meet specific management objectives. If the
farmer is far from the agricultural land he will not be noticed of current conditions. So, efficient
water management plays an important role in the irrigated agricultural cropping systems.
A low cost alternative solution for efficient water management currently in use is drip irrigation
systems that consist of an automated controller to turn on & off the control values, which in-turn
helps the farmers by managing the water supply to the crop fields and further maintains the
moisture levels of soil that helps in better crop production within the short span of time.
By using the concept of modern irrigation system a farmer can save water up to 50%. This
concept depends on two irrigation methods those are: conventional irrigation methods like
overhead sprinklers, flood type feeding systems i.e. wet the lower leaves and stem of the plants.
The area between the crop rows become dry as the large amount of water is consumed by the
flood type methods, in which case the farmer depends only on the incidental rainfalls. The crops
are been infected by the leaf mold fungi as the soil surface often stays wet and is saturated after
irrigation is completed.
Overcoming these drawbacks new techniques are been adopted in the irrigation techniques,
through which small amounts of water applies to the parts of root zone of a plant. The plant soil
moisture stress is prevented by providing required amount of water resources frequently or often
daily by which the moisture condition of the soil will retain well. The diagram below shows the
entire concept of the modern irrigation system.
The traditional techniques like sprinkler or surface irrigation requires / uses nearly half of water
sources. Even more precise amounts of water can be supplied for plants. As far as the foliage is
dry the plant damage due to disease and insects will be reduced, which further reduces the
operating cost. The dry rows between plants will leads to continuous federations during the
irrigation process.
Fertilizers can be applied through this type of system, and the cost required for will also reduce.
The erosion of soil and wind is much reduced by the recent techniques when compared with
overhead sprinkler systems.
The soil characteristics will define the form of the dripping nature in the root zone of a plant
which receives moisture. As the method of dripping will reduce huge water losses it became a
popular method by reducing the labour cost and increasing the yields.

Coconut is cultivated in 93 countries in the world and India is the largest coconut producing
country in the world. Even though production of coconut is confined to 18 states in the country,
coconut and coconut products enjoy consumer demand throughout the country. Coconut
cultivation and allied activities provide continuous employment and revenue to more than 10
million people in the country. It is a fibre yielding crop to the coir industry giving employment
opportunities to nearly 6.75 lakh workers of which 80% are women folk. The coconut is
cultivated in 1.94 million hectares in India with a production of 15,840 million nuts in the year
2008-09. India has around 5.83 lakh hectares under natural rubber cultivation. Once planted,
rubber trees take 6-7 years to mature and to start yielding latex and goes on to give yield for
about 22 to 25 years. Between the age of 25 to 30 years, latex production is not economical and
given for slaughter tapping which means that taping in the last season before it is cut and
removed. India is the 3rd largest producer of natural rubber with a production of 8,57,000 tonnes
in 2008-09 and has a rich source of timber of plantation origin.
The major available replacement for wood products is plastic, metals and few other products.
Coir, a by-product of coconut and rubber wood, a by-product of the rubber plantation industries
and therefore, considered as an eco-friendly alternative to natural forest based timber.
When coir and rubber wood are substantially produced from plantations, they can substitute logs
and fuel wood, otherwise exploited from natural forests. The economically available volume of
rubber wood logs and coir and its utilization therefore can reduce the pressure on natural tropical
forests and contribute towards biodiversity conservation.
One unit of coir ply with a production capacity of 40 cubic meters a day would be able to save
about 22 trees per day which means 6,600 trees per year. Assuming that one such tree requires
40 sq.meter, then it would be 25 trees in one acre so that one coir ply unit could save about 264
acres of tropical forest in every year. If 10% of coir fibre produced is utilized in the manufacture.
of coir ply, it would save about 8, 80,000 tropical trees per year which corresponds to 8,800
acres of tropical forests per year.
Correspondingly, a rubber tree could yield about 0.57 cubic meters of timber (20 cft.). The yield
per hectare is about 150 cubic meters (5295 cft.) and hence the current availability has been
estimated at 1.6 million cft. Per year which means that the rubber plantations have become a
good eco-friendly source of timber. From the point of view of the national economy rubber wood
processing industry performs the vital function of saving precious foreign exchange used up in
the import of timber. The 45 rubber wood processing plants that are in operation at present
consumes only 11% of the stem wood that is available here.
It has been, therefore, estimated that the industry can expand substantially, if proper expertise,
finance and government support are forthcoming. Such an exercise could save foreign exchange
to the tune of US$ 200 million and generate direct employment of the order of 2 lakh. Coir ply
made from coir fibre and phenol formaldehyde resin is an innovative wood substitute. It is a
composite board and other hard fibres such as sisal and jute etc. and pre-treated plantation rubber
wood veneers could be incorporated The diversified new uses of coir composite and rubber wood
will save the tropical forests, increase rural employment opportunities and also promote
agriculture leading to sustainable development.
It was in the latter half of the 20th century that growing eco-concerns the world over channelled
research and resources into a product called rubber wood. In India, the initial attempts to process
rubber wood were made in the mid – 1960’s but the industry had to wait for the closing years of
the 20th century to gain momentum through larger investments from private investors. However,
the main hurdle in the wide spread use of rubber wood is the lack of awareness about its
versatility among the public. Today, there, are nearly 45 rubber wood processing units of varying
size in the country.
Like coconut palm, almost all parts of rubber can be put to commercial use. The major industrial
products of rubber are automobile tyres and tubes, cycle tyres and tubes, footwears, surgical
gloves, condoms, electrical grade rubber mats, latex threads, medical equipments, toy, balloon
etc. The non-traditional use of rubber includes rubberisation of roads and as seismic bearings
used in soil stabilization and vibration absorption.
Apart from latex and honey from rubber plantations, the rubber wood industry performs the other
vital function of being an additional source of revenue to the growers. The trees, at the end of
their economic life, are cut down and form the feed stock of the rubber wood industry. Rubber
tree has in more ways than one revolutionized man’s life. But it is the use of the tree as timber
that has now captured the imagination of millions of people. Apart from being another source of
income for growers and employment for workers in the industrial sector, the process of value
addition has offered the home and office segment with stylish products.
The coconut shells are used mainly in fuel, activated carbon and shell flour. It was reported that
coconut shells were used in building construction either as a primarily structural material or as a
filter material. It is also used beneath the ground floors in predominantly water-logged areas in
order to resist the up thrust due to water pressure and incorporated in roof weathering cores to
increase thermal insulation, producing hardboards, thermal insulant slabs. The coir pith is used
for producing hard boards, thermal insulant slabs and bricks.
The coconut wood has been used for roofing components like rafters, beams, joints, purlins.
Compared with conventional furniture timbers, coconut wood, because of its abrasive nature, has
less desirable working qualities. Coconut stem wood does not suffer from degrading defects such
as knots. This could facilitate stem bending and use of curved profiles. Coconut stems are ideally
suitable as natural round timber because the strongest wood is in outside surface of the stem.
For purposes like rural houses, temporary sheds, cowsheds, workshop buildings, farm buildings,
small and rural buildings, where some wood in unfinished form could be used, coconut wood is
the most suitable material cost wise. Only the first 8 to 10 meter of the mature and over matured
coconut trees will be worth sawing. About 0.15 to 0.2 m3 of sawn sizes will be available from an
average size of mature trees.
Coir Composites
Coir composites belong to the fibre reinforced resins and the fibres are embedded in a polymer
matrix so that the former forms a discontinuous phase in the continuous phase of the latter. The
resinous matrix is the material used to envelop the reinforcement. The material are superior to
conventional metallic materials, wood and timber which are mainly used in civil engineering,
building and construction, chemical, transportation, marine and off-shore engineering and sports
good applications.
Coir composites can be made using coir as reinforcing material with or without plantation timber
veneer like rubber veneer, bamboo, jute, glass in-between as a secondary reinforcement and then
impregnated with polymeric matrix material like phenolic, polyester, epoxy etc. and processed
under controlled temperature and pressure.
The primary advantage of the coir composite is due to the coir, which is a natural, eco-friendly
and abundantly available material. Coir is very strong due to its high content of crystalline alpha
cellulose and lignin. It is highly resistant to borer, termite, water and other natural elements. The
coir fibre being very strong and flexible, it can easily replace the glass fibre or can be hybridized
in required ratio with the glass fibre.
The coir reinforcement fibre could be of coir felt, coir rope or coir sliver, etc. Additional
reinforcement fibres such as glass, bamboo and jute fibre could also be used for improving the
structural performance. The resultant coir fibre composites offer several advantages such as light
weight, high strength and stiffness, non- corrosive, water resistant, long durability, low cost, etc.
Coir composites are highly suitable for building and construction and transportation applications
for cost effective substitute to wood and timber.
