| Description: | The combination of polymer / ceramic sensors can be used for both room temperature and elevated temperatures. For various applications, the change in electric properties in different forms such as voltage, current, frequency and so on is used in sensor devices. Humidity and gas sensors can be grouped into two types: resistive and capacitive types. Particularly in recent years the use of humidity control systems has greatly increased in the quality control of production processes and products in a wide range of industries. The gas sensing characteristics of a given sensing element depends upon the material used, the method of preparation, and the resulting microstructure. Many conducting polymers were tested for humidity and gas sensing behavior, among them polypyrrole is the promising candidate, a wide verity of ceramic materials were tested as sensors, these ceramic materials have shown the great advantage in terms of their porsivity and microstructure resulting from their preparation. This has motivated the author to study of sensor behavior of conducting polypyrrole / ceramic composites. |

Student Name : Poojitha C G Title of the Paper : A MODEL TO PREDICT 238U IN AQUIFER ROCK BASED ON 222Rn AND 226Ra MEASUREMENT IN GROUNDWATER SAMPLES: A CASE STUDY AT SOUTH BENGALURU CITY, KARNATAKA, INDIA Research Description : Naturally occurring 222Rn and 226Ra concentrations were investigated in groundwater samples collected from different parts of South Bengaluru city using Smart RnDuo monitor developed indigenously by Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), India. The study area has been divided into two zones on the basis of external gamma radiation dose rates as zone A (100–200 nSv/h) and zone B (above 200 nSv/h). Radon concentration in groundwater for various sites, both supported (contribution from dissolved 226Ra in water) and unsupported (contribution from aquifer rock), was estimated. Assuming that 238U and 226Ra are roughly in secular equilibrium in the aquifer rock, a model has been proposed to predict the uranium (238U)content in the aquifer rocks using onsite measured 222Rn concentration and dissolved 226Ra concentration in the groundwater. Results of a case study carried out at South Bengaluru city, Karnataka, India have been discussed in the paper.
