| Agri-Electronics Group: Current Activities | ||
Agri-Electronics Group (AEG), CEERI is involved in the design and development of state of art technologies for Agro-based industries of India for more than two decades. Some of the technologies developed (know-how) are transferred to the industry and absorbed in their processes. Industry and the Government recognized the scientific efforts and work of AEG CEERI team by bestowing honors such as NRDC award, CSIR technology shield, FICCI award, ELCINA award, Sugar Technology Mission award etc. Notable areas where CEERI contributed extensively in agro based applications are technology development and value addition for Sugar, Tea, Energy and food storage industries in improving the product quality and sustainability, energy saving. |

| 1. | Development of Smart Systems for AGRO and Food Processing Applications: Sensing (Gas), Characterization and Control - Institute Supra Project. | |
| Objectives: | ||
| • | Integration / Interface of MEMs or semiconductor based gas sensors with remote receive / transmit on the chip embedded system with Wireless / satellite interaction, global positioning systems and remote powering. |
|
| • | Design and development of Smart Embedded System for societal purposes, RO Water Automation and Integrated CAS system. |
|
| • | Design and development of Smart Embedded System for Battery Storage House. |
|
| • | Design and development of automated integrated sensor test setup for characterization and calibration of the developed gas sensors. | |
| Assess the value of networked sensors as compared to individual sensors for reducing false alarms and to reduce the effects of sensor drift due to temperature and humidity changes. | ||
| 2. | Automation of RO Plants with Global View Facility CSMCRI Bhavanagar has funded a project for design, development and implementation of Automation of RO plants designed by them. The proposed system will have continuously monitor all the critical parameters and try to control the TDS of the final product as per the set limits. It will have auto rinsing and washing facility. It will be equipped with web-based remote viewing facility. |
|
| 3. | Smart Pond Management System for Fresh Water Aquaculture | |
This is combined project with CIFA Bhuvaneshwar funded by DBT, Govt. of India. The aim of the project is to arm the aquaculture farmer with a system which will monitor and control the healthiness of the pond and the species in the pond. The system will monitor all critical parameters of the pond and based on a model predicts the stress factor on the fish / prawn so that the farmer can take preventive action in advance. |
