The western parts of Maharashtra State are also known as the economic back-bone of India, where in about 60% of Agro-Industrial products is being manufactured from this part. Considering this fact, it is necessary to evaluate the west coast geothermal resources for non-electric uses. To save the expense of drilling investigation, indirect methods of evaluation of reservoir are chosen. The petrological, mineralogical, geochemical and geophysical survey reports of the areas are thoroughly studied. On the basis of pre-existing data, the evaluation of the area reveals low temperature. Geochemical data reveals that, there is a marginal reduction in alkalis at 100 ˚ C, where as they registered enrichment in the resultant solution of experiments at 150 ˚ C.The chemical analysis of the basaltic gains after reaction at 175 ˚ C and 200 ˚ C indicates an increase in water. On the basis of above dat...

Inspection of tunnel lining is divided into primary inspection and secondary inspection. Under the study, non-destructive inspection method is used in the process of practicable inspection to make this routine introduced. Repair and reinforcement methods of deformation tunnel is divided into countermeasures against earth pressure, countermeasures for deteriorated lining, countermeasures against leakage of water and weathering damage, and countermeasures against spalling. Moreover, the present case study is concerning recent typical deformation of Darekasa railway tunnel pertaining to countermeasures against leakage of water and weathering damage and spalling of tunnel lining.

The presented methodology is quite economical. Besides fulfillment of the proposed objective, the method involves added advantage of getting rid of evil non biodegradable plastic waste from the environment. After application of presented method, improves not only the quality of repair of joints and cracks but also the projected life of building. One of the major provisions under the new Rules is the explicit recognition of the role of waste pickers from the waste disposal sites and streets. Their role is recognized with the proposed coined term "Environmental Angels". We would also like to contribute our future generation to save our environment from the "Evil-Plastic Waste" widely used in day to day life.

Not just speaking proverbially, but in truest ever sense, precise prediction of earthquakes has long been a question of Life & Death for the scared inhabitants of earthquake-prone areas and so is for the forecasters and scientists ranging from Nostradamus to Dr. Vladimir Kellis-Borok since last a few centuries. Though the experts still don’t know many of the details of the physical processes involved and how to predict these events, several prediction and chaos theories have been put forth with varying degrees of successes. In spite of the inherent complexities involved in such a complex system, the research is still on and on. The time-predictable model of earthquake prediction is based on the theory that earthquakes in fault zones are caused by the constant build-up and release of strain in the Earth...

This methodology is based on the data available from Google Earth, IRS 1C LISS III and GIS database. The method presented here was applied to a case study of Gondia Municipal Council for selecting suitable waste disposal site and it is found that this is a very effective procedure and can be successfully used in selection of waste disposal sites for other cities. The method is mainly based on the following parameters- bedrocks depth, slope of ground, water table depth, soil types, permeability etc. and the weight ages are given to these parameters and the best site is selected on the basis of the scores secured in respect of these important parameters. The efficacy of solid waste disposal depends upon selection of proper site and there are several issues that have impact for site selection. The ultimate aim of this study is to select a site for Gondia Municipal Council for Municipal ...

The prime objective of work is to determine the causes for higher nitrate concentration in groundwater and its impact on human health. A total 40 samples were collected from open and bore wells. The ground water quality analysis based on Nitrate concentration was carried out. The nitrate concentration was analysed with UV spectrometer using appropriate standards. The highest concentration recorded was 120 mg/L and the lowest concentration was 30 mg/L that exceeds the maximum permissible limit of 20 mg/L for potable water set by Indian Council of Medical Research. The presence of high nitrate concentration in the area is attributed to the factors like groundwater present at shallow unconfined aquifer, bedrock dissolution in the course of groundwater migration, presence of granitic gneiss formation, poor sanitation facilities, leaching from indiscriminate dumping of animal waste, lack of drainage system and excessive use of fertilizers.

Though they cannot be avoided but they can be minimized. Out of these the major cause of concern is the flood. It is solely responsible for the loss of life and property and casualties. About 10% of the population (119492 human lives) is affected by flood as per the 2011 census of Gondia District every year. The main aims and objectives study is to identify Annually Flooded Area, sort and model a solution to fight the causes of natural disasters and minimize its impact on human lives as well as the Natural Hazards Vulnerability Assessment of Gondia District using Met-lab and GIS technique.

The focus is on controlling the physical vulnerability of residences to flood disasters in Gondia city, Maharashtra, India. To balance the widespread data of damage from slow-rise flood depth, this study examines the lateral pressure from flood depth differential between the inside and outside of a residence and flood velocity. The main aims and objectives study is to identify Annually Flooded Area, sort and model a solution to Sustainable Drainage Systems for Storm water Management and minimize its impact on human lives as well as the Natural Hazards Vulnerability Assessment of Gondia City using GIS technique & MATLAB.
