SKYBUS:The EMERGING Technology (Intro)

-


            The Sky Bus technology meets the requirements, and re-defines the thinking and planning for urban transport being an eco-friendly Mass urban transport system revolutionizing urban life. It is a patented technology developed for the new millennium and will cause a paradigm shift in urban transportation all over the world. Being an indigenous technology, it will place India on the forefront of the Rapid Transit Industry all over the world while providing the much needed alternative transportation solution, which is financially viable, environment friendly, synergizing well proven existing cutting edge technologies. Sky bus technology is developed by Mr. B. Rajaram. Sky Bus is based on the concept of Sky Wheels presented in 1989 at the World Congress for Railway Research by Mr. B Rajaram, Managing Director of KRCL at Bologna University, Italy. The sky bus uses pre-fabricated latest construction technologies, which in busy urban areas without disturbing the existing traffic pattern. All these structural engineering methods are well-proven. They have IT tools for economical communication and control. The 3 phase asynchronous AC electrical motor used for the propulsion of sky buses is also well proven and widely used abroad as well as in India.

               It is aesthetically pleasing and there is no concern of a claustrophobic feeling for road users. Aesthetic and eco-friendly, the Sky Bus is protected against derailment, toppling or collision by design as well as by construction, hence is safer than the existing rail based system. At the cost of more than Rs. 50 Crore per km in India. The system is noise free and pollution free with a capacity to transport more passengers. With no signals and having no points and crossings, it is a unique mass-transit system that can be put up within two years in any crowded & congested city. In addition to moving people, the Sky Bus system can carry standard 20 ft. containers, boosting its capacity utilization to double that of other existing systems.

POLLUTION CONTROL & PUBLIC AWARENESS

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION ANALYSIS:            What is the need for monitoring environmental pollution and analyse the data thus collected? This is avexing question. One cannot think of control measures unless one knows what is the extent of pollution? A lot of awareness can be created about pollution, A great awareness is already there in urban society in large cities on pollution, but we cannot effectively control pollution in the absence of authentic data about air pollution, water pollution, water treatment, industrial effluents, sewage management, land and pesticides pollution or abatement of noise pollution. Such measures can be effective only if we have reliable data on exact levels of pollution. Such reliable data can be obtained by monitoring of environmental pollution at site. The knowledge of levels of pollution will enable us to use and adopt effective, reliable and economic measures for their control. To control pollution, which is growing in alarming proportion

IMPACTS of URBANIZATION on ENVIRONMENT

                Probably most of the major environmental problems of the next century will result from the continuation and sharpening of existing problems that currently do not receive enough political attention. The problems are not necessarily noticed in many countries or then nothing is done even the situation has been detected. The most emerging issues are climate changes, freshwater scarcity, deforestation, and fresh water pollution and population growth. These problems are very complex and their interactions are hard to define. It is very important to examine problems through the social-economic-cultural system . Even the interconnections between environmental problems are now better known, we still lack exact information on how the issues are   linked, on what degree they interact and what are the most effective measures. [A] IMPACTS ON THE ATMOSPHERE AND CLIMATE 1. The creation of heat island                   Materials like concrete, asphalt, bricks et
