In Bangladesh the problem of arsenic in tubewell water can be easily solved through switching back to arsenic free surface water that was used since ancient times. The main hazard of surface water is diarrhoeal germs, but these can be easily destroyed by heating to or above 60°C. The present work describes the innovation of a very low cost domestic scale solar device for use in rural areas that can...
This paper gives a brief introduction of Groundwater Direct Cooling (GWDC) and the advantages of its application in rural areas. Taking the outdoor meteorological parameters, the temperature of groundwater and the performance of cooling coil into consideration, the region suitability of the application of groundwater direct cooling in rural areas is given after the analysis of the principles of cooling...

Electric power systems in many remote rural villages generally consist of diesel electric generators (DEGs) serving relatively low and highly cyclical loads the majority of the time. Methods of improving the efficiency and operational lifetime of these systems are to load the DEGs closer to their rated capacity, employ heat recovery and utilize turbochargers. The efficiency of the DEG engine is directly...
