One-day workshop on Advanced surveying (Total Station & GPS)

Mr.N.Sennappan, (Former Surveyor L&T, Presto Land Survey Institute – Salem) has been conducted practical session Total Station & GPS held on 30.03.2017 at Kanini karutharangam, KSRCT. The programme is aims at equipping the participant with the Total Station & GPS instrument for land surveying and demarcation. This program provided participants with real-time experience of a Survey project using Total Station equipment, which will help them build a stronghold on the subject and find new Civil Engineering career opportunities. This course is designed to prepare the students to handle sophisticated survey equipment and to execute large survey projects.

Zero Liquid Discharge (zld) for Indusrial Waste Water Management

Er.M.Sathiskumar, M.E.,(Industrial Safety), Green World Tech, Tirupur has inaugurated and effectively delivered keynotes on Zero Liquid Discharge for Industrial Waste Water held on 31-03-2017 at Cyberdome. ZLD technology includes pre-treatment and evaporation of the industrial effluent until the dissolved solids precipitate as cryst. Awareness on water scarcity problems that will be faced by many societies. Treat and recover valuable products from waste streams. This Programme contains Importance of ZLD, what is ZLD, Challenges in ZLD. To have the broad education necessary to have an understanding of contemporary issues and the interaction between sustainable and ethical engineering practice and global, social, economic, political, and environmental issues. To prevent fouling during the reverse osmosis process, ultrafiltration is often used to eliminate suspended solids. An efficient and well-designed ZLD treatment system should be able to: handle variations in waste contamination and flow, allow for required chemical volumes adjustments, recover around 95% of your liquid waste for reuse, treat and retrieve valuable byproducts from your waste (i.e. salts and brines), produce a dry, solid cake for disposal.Dr. D. Jegadeeswaran, M.E., Ph.D., Professor / Civil and Dr. N. Ramesh, M.E., Ph.D., Professor / Civil distribute the prizes for event winners and given vote of thanks at the final ceremony of the programme.

Hands on training in Archicad (2d & 3d) for planning of Industrial structures

Er.S.Adhavan, B.Sc., (Agri), Centre Head, CADD Centre, Erode address the importance of Software to the final year student on 20-10-2016 at Kanini karutharagam, KSRCT. Training resources are made for ARCHICAD users, prospects and students with different level of knowledge and interest. Each volume includes a step-by-step PDF manual, narrated video clips and ARCHICAD project files for hands-on practice. Introduces to the principles of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and shows positive and productive ways of using ARCHICAD. It will equip us with the knowledge and confidence to use the program quickly and effectively. Given realistic economic, environmental, social, political, and ethical constraints, to be able to critically analyze and design equipment, structures, systems, or processes to meet society’s current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs. The objective of this practice is to work with and to analyze the different correction techniques. Then, we will use the observations loaded in the previous practices in order to use them as input for the correction functions. Experts to ensure attendees have increased productivity and gain greater confidence with the software and associated workflows. Dr.N.Ramesh, Professor/Civil honouring the Chief guest Er.Adhavan with a memento.

Reverse osmosis and its application
