Raj Singh Dahiya:

Raj Singh Dahiya in Rajasthan who never

even stepped into a school, developed an

efficient biomass gasifier that ensures

smooth operation of any engine at a low

operational cost. Biomass gasifiers basically

convert woody biomass, agricultural wastes

like rice-husk, coconut waste etc. into a

combustible gas which can be burnt like conventional gaseous fuel for thermal

applications, or fed into diesel and gasoline engines. This biomass-based gasifier unit

processes about 20 kg of bio-waste to run an engine of 30 HP for an hour.

G. D. Naidu:

G. D. Naidu, an Indian inventor and

engineer often referred to as the Edison of

India is credited with the manufacture of

the first electric motor in India. His

contributions were primarily industrial but

also span the fields of electrical,

mechanical, agricultural (Hybrid

cultivation) and automobile engineering. He had only primary education but excelled as a

versatile genius.

Naidu invented 'Rasant' razor, a small motor operated by dry cells, which was later

developed at a factory in the German town called Heilbronn. Among his other inventions

were super-thin shaving blades, a distance adjuster for film cameras, a fruit juice

extractor, a tamper-proof vote-recording machine and a kerosene-run fan.
