    Automated FYP System
    (UMT, Lahore, 2023) Muhammad Abdullah; Bilal Hussain; Muhammad Asim; Jawad Hussain
    Our deepest gratitude goes to Allah Almighty who has provided all that was needed to complete this project and the program for which it was undertaken. There was never lack or want. Throughout this entire study, He took care of everything that would have stopped us in our tracks and strengthened us even through our most difficult times. Our first acknowledgment goes to UMT for designing such a worthy syllabus and making us do this project. We thank all the faculty members who help us throughout the project. This Project has been a wonderful experience where we have learned and experienced many beneficial things. We are delighted to have a mentor like Miss Hina Alam who gave us the chance of doing and complete this Web-based project: Automated FYP System. This helped us in learning and practicing a lot of new things which will help us in finding great opportunities in the software and education industry as well as in project startup innovation. We would thank our advisor to guide us properly in every aspect of making the documentation and project complete.

    Feasibility analysis of solar combi-system for simultaneous production of pure drinking water via membrane distillation and domestic hot water for single-family villa: pilot plant setup in Dubai.
    (Desalination and Water Treatment, Taylor & Francis, 2015) Muhammad Asim
    This paper presents the feasibility study of installation of a solar-driven integrated MD desalination system for simultaneous production of pure drinking water and solar domestic hot water in United Arab Emirates (UAE) for a single-family villa comprising of 4–5 persons. In order to satisfy the current and future demand of water for domestic purposes, the desalination of seawater is considered to be one of the most effective and strategic technique in UAE. The stress on the underground water aquifers, rapid industrial growth, and increase in urban population in UAE results in the tremendous increase in fresh water demand during the past few decades. Since the local municipalities also provide the desalinated fresh water to the people but they mostly rely on bottled water for drinking purpose. In this paper, the pilot setup plant is designed, commissioned, and installed on site in UAE using air gap membrane distillation desalination process to fulfill the demand of 15–25 L/d of pure drinking water and 250 L/d of domestic hot water for a single-family villa. Experimental analyses have been performed on this setup during summer on flat plate solar collectors having different aperture areas (Experiments have been performed for aperture area of 11.9 m2 in this research study for feasibility purpose). The average hot-side temperature ranges from 50 to 70˚C and average cold-side temperature of 35˚C.
