Lithium: The New Possibilities in India in Energy Sector!

India being the second largest population in world almighty the first as per current report. China is the second incumbent. So far, the need of resources for such a large population for industry, automobile and other sectors are being fulfilled by the traditional fossil fuels, hydro and solar energy. All these segments of energy are limited in their quantity and capacity. The other disadvantage of the fossil fuel is their production cost and pollution after usage. Fossil fuel release high amount of carbon extracts after usage. 

The Philosophical
Fossil fuels are extracted by deep borewell  technique and high cost of production and then refining it for commercial usage. The quantity of Petroleum production is limited and around 70% of the demand is met with importing from gulf countries which levies serious burden on Indian economy. Each country is working on the alternate of these fossil fuel and electric and Solar system are upcoming version of energy sources. India has come out  to be the International icon for Solar possibilities. Solar system has limits as steady and constant supply of sun rays is mandatory to charge the silicon chips that produce electric current that is stored in cathode tube based batteries.

Lithium Ion is the next successor of the ongoing technologies. Lithium Ion based battery produce high charge and charging capacity is very high, lithium Ion waste material is also minimum and is eco friendly so far. Due to this significance, it is termed as White Gold. India has launched Lithium based E-Vehicles that are running very commonly on roads now a days.
Lithium Reservoirs have been found in Jammu & Kashmir, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Bihar also. Around 5.9 million tones of lithium has been found in Jammu  & Kashmir this year only. Geological Survey of India, the institution responsible for surveys and mining of minerals in India is working on it. However it can take 7-8 year to start full capacity production of lithium from these reservoirs.

Technology tycoons are glancing at India for new possibilities of Lithium based Vehicles, machineries and other daily appliances.  Use of Lithium will replace the dependency on fossil fuels very soon and it will cut down the cost of production. Also India will save a big part on import of fossil fuels form gulf countries, Thus boosting the economy in other sectors. A check can be put on the pollution also and lowering down the figures in Carbon footprints of  India on global chart. India is on 5th place in Lithium reserves over the world map. Thus Lithium could be a game changer in the energy sector in upcoming decades.

Self Driving Trucks: Logistics on New Heights

 In real life, consumers will not advocate as strongly for self driving trucks as the business owner with a multi million dollar profit opportunity. There will be concerns regarding consumer self driving trucks that will pressure regulators and slow the process. But business will spend the dollars to make it’s case and approvals will come. Trucks will have CDL personnel in the cab when self driving trucks operations begin and they will be restricted to limited access highways and small distances beyond the off ramp. A single 24 hour ‘driver monitor’ replaces two team drivers. Later the monitor is removed because over the road saFDV trucks will have ‘x’ billion miles of safe driving” Truck drivers will be terminally unemployed. There is no natural next job for this set of skills. And, yes, this is a problem. In the beginning, the shortage of employees and attrition will help balance the negative effects of the faSDV truck. The problem is that the transition period will be relatively...

Cryptocurrency: New Possibilities of Wealth

 Cryptography was developed around WWII as a medium of securing conversations between two parties so that no third party can intercept it. This high end technology was for securing conversations between two people by following a set of certain rules and protocols ,but with rise in computer technology and mathematical approach , it has been developed as a way of securing conversation, transactions and information worldwide. The first cryptocurrency to be known till now is Bitcoin/s , also the most expensive currency till date ( 1 Bitcoin=884122.02 INR or 13899.00 US Dollar at 12 Jan 2018 at 07:31 pm). The maximum number of bitcoins available is 20999999.9769 BTC. It was developed by Satoshi Nagamoto in late 2008 and then released Bitcoin v0.1 on 2009-01-09 20:05:49 UTC . “Announcing the first release of Bitcoin, a new electronic cash system that uses a peer-to-peer network to prevent double-spending. It’s completely decentralized with no server or central authority.  – Satoshi ...

Gene therapy: Invention That Can Create Hope of Life!

Gene therapy-1.0:  Imagine a miracle cure with just one injection Ur whole disease would permanently disappear, Hard to believe but so true in this modern technological world. We all might be familiar with gene therapy concept, one which brought revolution to mankind disease treatment, by directly targeting the disease-causing gene. 1990 marked the start of gene therapy by curing a little girl who had no hope of living, Since then we have faced many ups and down in gene therapy technology and it's development. Overall we could say that it is a ' technique Of treating a disease or disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cell instead of using drugs and surgery'. Although it is a miracle technology to cure the disease it has its own setback and issue. Risk and setback of gene therapy:- Gene therapy has faced one set back after the other due to which it's development took rather slow and sometimes stopped, earlier gene therapy failure reasons or setback can be see...
