  1. DRUTA DAHAN CHULLI(fast crematory furnace)A GREEN FURNACE FOR CREMATORY GROUNDS

  2. DRUTA DAHAN CHULLI(fast crematory furnace) based on the GREEN FURNACE FOR CREMATORY GROUNDS innovated by late kantiBhusanSen Talk by: SurajitSen Department of Physics Gurucharan College Silchar

  3. Part-IGlobal warming and techniques to curb it

  4. What is Global Warming?

  5. What causes global warming • Excessive concentration of Green House Gas (GHG) is primarily responsible for Global Warming • Main constituents of GHG are CO2, CH4, CF4, NO2, SF6, various CFCs, … Classification of Global Warming • Natural global warming • Anthropogenic (Man-made) global warming

  6. Contribution of natural or anthropogenic global warming Man-made contribution to the Climate Change needs to be curbed.

  7. Magnitude of global warming vs Time plot explains why Climate Change is a threat

  8. Carbon contamination of our climate • Historically Carbon dioxide concentration is around 200 – 280ppm • Present concentration is 378ppm and it is rising at 1.5 ppm per year • Point of no return ≈ 400-450ppm? (Between 2040-2050) • We have 10-20 years is left to show that we can make a difference?

  9. Impact of global warming on sea-level change

  10. Three important methods to tackle global warming • Promote large scale forestation • Reduce the `Carbon Footprint’- individual carbon contribution to climate • Transform `Conventional Projects’ into innovative `Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)’ Projects and get it certified by UNFCCC to generate `Carbon Credit’ • How to integrate all three features in a single project

  11. UNEP recommendation to curb Carbon Footprint Since 2008 United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) recommending individual `CARBON FOOPRINT’ by changing their lifestyle

  12. Personal initiative to curb `Carbon Footprint’

  13. `Fast Crematory Furnace or DrutaDahanChulli’ is an innovative project which reduces the `Carbon Footprint’ of every individual even beyond death ! A innovative way of reducing the individual `Carbon Footprint’ • Hundreds of dos… and do not… exists for living persons

  14. Part-IIFast Crematory Furnace Project at Silchar Municipal Crematory Ground

  15. This part of the lecture is based on the work of late KantiBhusanSen

  17. Contents (Contd.) • 3. Structure of DrutaDahanChulli (DDC) • a) Lateral view • b) Sectional view • 4. Layout of DDC • 5. Technical specification • 6. Comparison of DDC with traditional furnace • 7. Why DDC is a `Green Furnace’? • 8. Impact of the DDC Project • 9. Prospect of UNFCCC Certification of the DDC as a CDM Project • 10. Historical notes

  18. Traditional crematory Furnace Essential components • 1. Brick Basement • 2. Rail Fuel (Tire Derived Fuel (TDF)) 1. Primary fuel: i) Larger log of firewood 2. Secondary fuel (Supportive): i) Kerosene (substantial) ii) Scrap tire HAZARDOUS

  20. DrutaDahanChulli(Fast Crematory Furnace) Essential components • 1. Brick Basement • 2. Rail • 3. Air tunnel with fan • 4. Regulators • 5. Cleaning arrangement Fuel 1. Primary fuel: Smaller & medium pieces of firewood 2. Secondary fuel (supportive): i) Kerosene - Very less (Just to start ignition) ii) Scrap Tire - Nil Module-I: Furnace Unit Module-II: Blower Unit

  23. Technical Layout of DDC (Top view)

  24. Technical Layout of DDC(Sectional view)

  25. Technical specification of DDC Module-I: Furnace Unit (Traditional Furnace +) • Two brick platforms: Each with Length 7ft, Breadth 2.6ft, Height 2.6ft from Finished Ground Level (FGL) • Distance between two brick platforms: 3 ft • Rail (Horizontal): 3 ft (6 numbers) • Rail (Vertical): 3.6 ft (2X6 numbers) • Base of the furnace: Slightly U (concave) shaped • Size of air flow outlet duct penetrating one side of brick platform : 13in X 13in

  26. Technical specification of DDC Module-II: Blower Unit Air Tunnel • Length of air flow duct (From Blower House to base of the furnace): Approx 10 ft • Shape of air flow duct: Box-shaped, focused towards furnace and covered by air-tight slab • Inlet size of air flow duct: 2ft X 2ft • Outlet size of air flow duct: 13in X 13in • Diameter of air blower (Fan): 2 ft • Speed of fan: Standard RPM available in market

  27. Technical specification of DDC Air Regulation • Regulator-I (Optional): Movable iron plate of size 15in X 15in to control air through the duct manually • Regulator-II: Two movable iron doors each of size 3.4ft X 2.6ft on both open sides of furnace Post cremation cleaning arrangement • Underground water reservoir • Water pump with hose pipe • Drain to flow out debris after each cremation

  28. Comparison of Traditional Furnace and DDC

  29. Why DDC is a `Green Project’ ? A conservative estimate:- • Assuming 800 corpses are burnt per year, the DDC project economizes about 10kg of firewood than the Traditional Furnace and saves at least 1 man-hour per corpse: a) Goodbye to Tire Derived Fuel (TDF) from Silchar Cremation Ground • Reduces individual `CARBON FOOTPRINT’ by eliminating harmful TDF b) In 1 year DDC saves 21 days man-hour approximately *X-Y=10 kg • c) In 1 year DDC saves 80 Quintal of firewood approximately

  30. Impact of DDC Project

  31. Proposed Project Large scale implementation of the DDC project across the country UNFCCC Certification of the DDC Project as a CDM Project : A proposal If CDM Project is recognized

  38. DDC Project: Historical Notes Recognition by SRISTI & Honey Bee Network of IIMA Innovated by Kanti Bhusan Sen ` `Green Living, Green Death’ “The range the innovations made by Prof Sen touched not only lives but also the deaths. He invented the DrutaDahanChullior Fast Burning Furnace in 1989 which can be called a green furnace for cremation. It is alternative to the traditional cremation among the Hindus. . . .” “The success of the DrutaDahanChulliin the crematory ground of Silchar for last two decades is a testimony of Green Consciousness spread by Prof Sen. He was given fitting finale in this furnace after his demise on June 9, 2004.” Honey Bee Vol 19 (2008) p16
