INTRODUCTION

Green technology is a relatively new field that has grown quickly as people have become aware of their detrimental effects on the environment, including global warming and the greenhouse effect. It is a wide-encompassing field.

Defining Green Technology

A “green technology” covers a constantly evolving group of method and materials, from methods and practices for generating energy to non toxic cleaning products.

Green technology is one of the fastest growing employment sectors and is surely much more than a passing trend.

GREEN TECHNOLOGY INVOLVES…

SECTORS OF GREEN TECHNOLOGY

AGRICUTURE

HYDROPONIC FARMING    

•Hydroponics is the art and science of growing plants without soil.•Use 60% to 80% less water than conventional outdoor farms by recycling every drop of water that plants don't take up.

Subsurface drip irrigation proveninnovative solution for field crop irrigation.

ISARD project : greening of agricultural production systems through waste recycling

•ISARD project proposes to develop a comprehensive integrated approach of applied knowledge in the field of recycling of organic waste products in agriculture.

Organic Farming: Organic agriculture is an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and on management practices that restore, maintain and enhance ecological harmony.

ENERGY

•Renewable Energy SourcesSolar Radiation

Wind Turbines

Hydroelectric :Currently largest source of electricity from renewable.

Tidal Power :At high tide reservoir of water is created which is allowed to ebb through turbines located in dam.

Wave Power

Biomass

Landfill Gas

•Efficiency technology Energy efficiency has proved to be a cost-effective strategy for building economies without necessarily increasing energy consumption.

Water and waste management

•Recycling technology Green Technology Recycling offers smart asset disposal options to business, educational institutions and government agencies.

•Sewage treatment and solid waste managementSewage treatment is the process of removing contaminants from wastewater and household sewage, both runoff (effluents), domestic, commercial and institutional.

•Water purification Contaminant Concern Non-Sustainable Solution Sustainable Solutions

Nitrate possible health risk; septic tank discharge X

anion or negative ion exchange; RO

XDisposable cartridge

Arsenic possible health riskX

oxidation before anion or negative ion exchange; oxidation before reverse osmosis

if Arsenic III present

Xsome disposable cartridges remove

both varieties of Arsenic

Coliform Bacteria possible health risk Xshock-chlorination

XUV treatment

Radium (naturally occurring) possible health risk Xsome softeners NSF-certified for radium

reduction

Uranium (naturally occurring) possible health riskX

uranium reduction is not certified by NSF; post system testing establishes that RO is

highly effective

XTurnkey Solutions (testing and certified safe media disposal)

BUILDING

•Sustainable building material

•Building performance technology

TRANSPORTATION

•Rail transport •Electric vehicle

. STRENGTHS FROM ADOPTING GREEN

TECHNOLOGY

Ability to meet strict product specifications in foreign markets:

•Manufacturers in developing countries typically need to meet stricter environmental requirements and specifications to export their products to industrialized countries.•gain advantage and market share over competitors.

Reduction of input costs:Green technology can improve production efficiency through –•the reduction of input costs, •energy costs• operating and maintenance costs, which can improve a company’s competitive position.

Environmental image:

Adopting green technology can improve a company’s environmental reputation, which is crucial if other competitors and consumers are becoming more environmental.

Ability to meet stricter environmental regulations in the future:

Companies that invest in green technology are more likely to be better equipped and ready for stricter environmental regulations as well as product specifications that are expected to be imposed on them in the future.

CHALLENGES TO GREEN TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION

High implementing costs Lack of information No known alternative chemical or raw material input No known alternative process technology Uncertainty about performance impacts Lack of human resources and skills

NEW GREEN TECHNOLOGIES

•HYDRO NANO GASA specific low energy pulse is put into water. The water molecules line up in a certain structure and are split from the Hydrogen molecules. The result is HNG.On a molecular level, HNG is a specific ratio mix of hydrogen and oxygen.

HNG instantly neutralizes carbon fuel pollution emissions.HNG combusts at a rate of 9000 meters per second while normal Hydrogen combusts at a rate 600 meters per second.

Hydro Nano Gas

•Air powered car A compressed air car is a car that uses a motor powered by compressed air.The  car  can  be  powered  solely  by  air,  or combined (as in a hybrid electric vehicle) with gasoline, diesel, ethanol,  or  an  electric  plant with regenerative braking.

Air powered car

The Indian automotive manufacturer has been working with Motor Development International, which is pioneering this technology, to make this highly conceptual propulsion system a reality.

GREEN IS THE NEXT IN FLAT PANEL DISPLAY
