New biodegradable polymer fabricated using guar gum, and chitosan has high potential for packaging material
New Delhi, October 11, 2021: A team of Indian scientists have developed an environmentally friendly, non-toxic, biodegradable polymer using guar gum and chitosan, both of which are polysaccharides extracted from guar beans and shells of crab and shrimps. The fabricated guar gum-chitosan film having high water stability, high mechanical strength, and excellent resistance to harsh […]
Scalable synthesis method developed of nanocrystals with bright emission colours useful for LED
New Delhi, October 8, 2021: Indian researchers have developed a method that can help large scale synthesis of a special class of semiconductor nanocrystals. These nanocrystals called two-dimensional layered perovskite and perovskite nanocrystals, which have bright emission colours and are not affected by or corroded by the environment, are useful for both high colour purity and low-cost solution processability. […]
Trans- Himalayan region becoming one of the promising astronomical sites globally
New Delhi, October 4, 2021: The Indian Astronomical Observatory (IAO) located at Hanle near Leh in Ladakh is becoming one of the promising astronomical sites globally, said a recent study. This is due to its advantages of more clear nights, minimal light pollution, background aerosol concentration, extremely dry atmospheric condition, and uninterrupted by monsoon. Astronomers […]
Unique technology for direct generation of Hydrogen from agricultural residue developed
New Delhi, October 3, 2021: Indian researchers have developed a unique technology for direct generation of Hydrogen from agricultural residue. This innovation by Indian researchers can promote eco-friendly hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles by overcoming the challenge of its availability. India has set a target of 60% renewable energy of about 450 GW by 2030. To […]
Technology to enhance biogas production of Fat-rich sludge from dairy industry developed
New Delhi, October 2, 2021: Indian Scientists have developed a novel high-performance bioreactor system integrated with sustainable pre-treatment process for enabling anaerobic digestion of complex fat-rich sludge from dairy industry. It has been further integrated with membrane bioreactor based-wastewater treatment to enable zero liquid discharge in the dairy industry. This technology has been developed by […]
Large-scale reactor developed for cost-effective production of hydrogen using sunlight and water

India has set a target of 450 GW of renewable energy by 2030. To achieve this […]
Electronic polymer based low-cost sensor developed to detect explosives rapidly
New Delhi, September 27, 2021: Indian scientists, for the first time, have developed a thermally stable and cost-effective electronic polymer-based sensor for rapidly detecting nitro-aromatic chemicals used in high-energy explosives. The detection of explosives without destroying them is essential for protection, and criminal investigations, minefield remediation, military applications, ammunition remediation sites, security applications, and chemical […]
First pilot plant to convert high ash coal to methanol can accelerate the country’s journey towards clean technology
New Delhi, September 24, 2021: India has developed an indigenous technology to convert high ash coal to methanol and established its first pilot plant in Hyderabad. This technology will help the country move towards the adoption of clean technology and promote the use of methanol as a transportation fuel (blending with petrol), thus reducing crude […]
Resolution of scientific challenge in calculating chemical abundance in stars can help explore their history better
New Delhi, September 23, 2021: The probe of astronomers into the history of formation and evolution of stars through chemical constitution of the bodies has long been hampered by an intriguing ‘carbon problem’—a mismatch between predicted and observed values of an abundance of elements that prevented the scientists from correctly calculating the abundances of the […]
