• Detection of Red Dye in Diesel Oil 

      Varughese, Bindu Sara; Khawaja, Hassan Abbas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Developing a sensitive and effective instrument for detecting the presence of red dye in diesel fuel is very advantageous for governments in preventing tax loss by controlling illegal use of the diesel fuel. The objective of this work has been to investigate and develop an instrument to detect red dye in diesel, based on the principle of absorption. The peaks of absorption in red and pure diesel ...

    • Detection, Identification and Size distribution of micro-plastic particles 

      Varughese, Bindu Sara; Edvardsen, Kåre (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2017)
      Pollution by micro-plastic in ecosystems is one of the major problems we are facing now, especially in marine environment. Many studies are going on the detection of different micro substances that pollute our environment. Micro-plastics are among the more frequent pollutants of the sort in aquatic ecosystems. There have been some studies earlier on methodologies to detect and identify micro-plastic ...
    • Fluorescent marking of roads in high-north 

      Khawaja, Hassan; Varughese, Bindu Sara; Edvardsen, Kåre (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2017)
      The project objective is to investigate into luminescent coating materials that can be used in marking the roads in high-north. The idea of the project is not entirely new, and efforts have been worldwide to find an energy efficient solution to the street lights. Earlier work conducted in the Netherlands showed quite promising results. However, the challenges include weatherproofing the coat such ...
