| Abstract | New “high temperature air combustion” HiTAC technologies are evolving for the incineration of municipal solid waste for energy production and minimal pollution. As a contribution to this area of current research interest, a calculation procedure has been developed that permits rapid generation of general fuel-air combustion with many parameter variations. The program calculations are via Excel/VBA with immediate graphics of the parameter effects on the results. Thus, an extensive range of parameter effects may be quickly investigated and assessed. The very-general fuel is specified by way of its C-H-O-N-S content and additional water content and the “air” by way of the volume percent of oxygen, and the other component of “air” (nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide), each specified by the user. The temperature of each inlet (fuel and “air”) is specified by the user. The methodology and computer code takes as input also the equivalence ratio. Then, results of adiabatic flame temperature are calculated along with the equilibrium product species both with and without dissociation. Alternatively, the products temperature may be specified and the heat transfer in the combustor is then calculated. The computer code is very user friendly, with automatic nested loops for parameter variation and automatic generation of graphs, which are particularly useful in assessing the particular process under consideration. The application now is to incineration of municipal solid waste for energy production and minimal pollution. The waste may consist of a variety of specified components, including plastics and non-plastics, cellulose, cardboard, wood, etc. In the developed computer code, the choice of which components and their relative amounts is easily specified by the user. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
