The special characteristics of the Autogenous mill are stated, and a suitable type of model for the mill is presented. An Autogenous Milling defined as used in this study; the term Autogenous milling means a process in which the size of the constituent pieces of a supply of rock is reduced in a tumbling mill purely by the interaction of the pieces, or by the interaction of the pieces with the mill shell, no other grinding medium being employed. The definition thus covers both 'run-of-mine' and 'pebble' milling, the only difference from the mathematical modeling viewpoint being that the feed to the first has a continuous, and the second a non-continuous, size distribution

The temperature dependent study was investigated by using a UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Activation parameters such as energy of activation Ea, free energy of activation , entropy of activation and enthalpy of activation were obtained from Eryring’s equation. The effect of substrates on the activation energy were in the order: benzoate ion > H+ > urea > OH- for Tris-(3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline)Iron(II) Sulphate, Fe(Me4phen)32+ and benzoate ion > H+ > OH- > urea for Tris-(4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline)Iron(II) Perchlorate, Fe(Me2phen)32+. Higher values of was observed in Fe(Me4phen)32+ in all substrates. The rate constants of dissociation were obtained from earlier published results of rate constants of binding and binding constants. Dissociation constants generally decreased with increase in the concentration of the surfactant, SDS. Higher rate constant of dissociation was observed in SDS- Fe(Me4phen)32+ than SDS- Fe(Me2phen)32+ in all the substrates.

Economic empowerment of women precedes all other empowerment and in order to understand how SHG have enabled women economic empowerment, the present study was taken up in four villages of Dharwad taluk, Dharwad district of Karnataka state. One hundred and fifty nine SHGs were selected for the study. The study revealed that 184 women have taken up individual income generation activities and most of them in the young and middle age categories, had some formal education and were either home makers or involved occasionally in farming. Group income generation activities were taken up by 29 groups. The entrepreneurial activities varied from business/ trading, food and agriculture related to others like candle, agarbatti, flour mill, chilli pounding unit etc. Among individual activities chilli pounding unit earned the highest income of Rs. 40,000/ year followed by vermicelli making with an average Rs. 20,294/ year. Among group activities vermicelli earned highest income of Rs 40,000-50,000 followed by poultry with Rs. 30,000-40,000.
