1 .Antivenoms:
(General Studies-III (250 marks)Technology, Economic Development, Biodiversity, Environment, Security, and Disaster Management)
are life-saving treatments for venomous bites and stings. They are made from antibodies that have been purified from the blood of animals that have been immunized with venom. These antibodies bind to the venom toxins, neutralizing them and preventing them from causing further damage to the body
They are highly specific, meaning that they only work against the venom of a particular species of snake or other venomous animal. This is because the antibodies in antivenom are only able to recognize and bind to the specific toxins in that venom.
2 .Stargate:
(General Studies-III (250 marks)Technology, Economic Development, Biodiversity, Environment, Security, and Disaster Management)
US President Donald Trump announced a USD 500 billion investment in AI infrastructure through a new company, which is being created in partnership with Oracle, SoftBank and Open AI.
The Stargate Project is a new company which intends to invest $500 billion over the next four years building new AI infrastructure for OpenAI in the United States. We will begin deploying $100 billion immediately. This infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world.
This project will not only support the re-industrialization of the United States but also provide a strategic capability to protect the national security of America and its allies
3 .Bioethanol
(General Studies-III (250 marks)Technology, Economic Development, Biodiversity, Environment, Security, and Disaster Management)
is a type of alcohol fuel made from plant material, such as corn or sugarcane. It's produced by fermenting the sugars in the plants with yeast to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide.
Renewable Source: Bioethanol is considered a renewable energy source because it's derived from plants, which can be regrown.
Uses:
Fuel Additive: It's commonly blended with gasoline to create a fuel mixture known as "gasohol." This can improve air quality by reducing emissions.
Pure Fuel: Bioethanol can also be used as a pure fuel in specially designed vehicles.
Production Process:
Feedstock Preparation: The chosen plant material (e.g., corn, sugarcane) is processed to extract the sugars.
Fermentation: Yeast is added to the sugar solution, and it converts the sugars into ethanol and carbon dioxide through fermentation.
Distillation: The fermented mixture is then distilled to separate the ethanol from other components.
Dehydration: The ethanol is further processed to remove any remaining water.
Benefits:
Reduced Emissions: Burning bioethanol can lead to lower emissions of some pollutants compared to gasoline.
Renewable Resource: As mentioned, plants can be regrown, making bioethanol a renewable fuel source.
Domestic Production: Many countries can produce bioethanol domestically, reducing reliance on imported oil.
Challenges:
Land Use: Growing crops for bioethanol production can compete with food production for land.
Energy Input: The production process itself requires energy, which can sometimes come from fossil fuels.
Environmental Impact: Some concerns exist about the environmental impact of certain feedstocks and the potential for soil erosion and water pollution.
Overall:
Bioethanol has the potential to be a valuable renewable energy source, but it's important to consider the environmental and economic factors associated with its production and use.
4 . Surgical tele-robotic system,
(General Studies-III (250 marks)Technology, Economic Development, Biodiversity, Environment, Security, and Disaster Management)
also known as a telesurgery system, is a type of robotic surgery system that allows a surgeon to operate on a patient from a remote location. This is made possible by using robotic technology and telecommunication networks to connect the surgeon and the patient.
Telesurgery systems typically consist of a surgeon's console, a patient cart, and an image vehicle. The surgeon's console is where the surgeon sits and controls the robotic arms. The patient cart is where the patient lies during the surgery. The image vehicle is a camera that provides the surgeon with a high-resolution view of the surgical site.
Telesurgery systems are used for a variety of surgical procedures, including:
Laparoscopic surgery
Thoracic surgery
Neurosurgery
Orthopedic surgery
Telesurgery systems offer a number of advantages over traditional surgery, including:
Increased precision and accuracy
Less invasiveness
Reduced risk of infection
Shorter recovery time
Improved patient outcomes
Telesurgery systems are still a relatively new technology, but they are becoming increasingly popular. As the technology continues to develop, it is expected that telesurgery systems will become even more widespread and that they will be used for a wider range of surgical procedures.
5 .PM JANMAN:
(GS Paper II: Governance, Constitution, Polity, Social Justice and International Relations)
aims to cover 75 PVTG communities residing in 18 States and 1 UT. The Ministry of Tribal Affairs through the State Governments/ UT Administration/departments have undertaken habitation level data collection exercise through PM Gati Shakti mobile application to estimate PVTG population figures and infrastructure gaps in order to cover PVTG beneficiaries / PVTG villages & habitations under PM-JANMAN Mission.
The exact number PVTG beneficiaries (State-wise) to be covered under mission is subjected to eligibility criteria of specific guidelines of concerned interventions as per norms approved under the Mission.
PM-JANMAN has total budgetary outlay of Rs.24,104 Cr (Central share: ₹15336 Cr and State share: ₹8768 Cr). However, the release of funds to States/UT is subject to scheme guidelines of various schemes under the mission, submission of proposals by respective State Government/UT and compliances of General Financial Rules (GFRs) etc.
PM-JANMAN has been launched to provide PVTG households and habitations with basic facilities such as safe housing, clean drinking water and improved access to education, health and nutrition, road and telecom connectivity, electrification of unelectrified households and sustainable livelihood opportunities in 3 years.
PMJANMAN focuses on 11 critical interventions being implemented by 9 Ministries.
