Biological neutralization of alkaline waste water is a biological process for the treatment of alkaline water from textile industrial waste water. Textile waste water is highly alkaline and acid is used to neutralize the waste water to have a neutral pH. The acid, when neutralized, increases the load of total dissolved solids and is unsafe for workers who neutralize the waste water. To address the above mentioned problems, this technology eliminates the use of acid and exploits the use of bacteria for the treatment of alkaline water, within the permissible limits set by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), in lesser time. Since the traditional approach involved in neutralization includes chemicals, the new process is a biotechnological endeavor to combat industrial pollution, which ensures environmental sustainability and worker's safety. CSIR holds the intellectual property rights for this technology. It has filed for patent protection in India and the US, for which the approval is pending in India and granted in the US. The technology has been developed as a lab-scale prototype and has been tested at two textile waste waters at Nahar Fabrics (near Chandigarh) and Himathsingka Linens (Bengaluru). CSIR has received three prospective commercial deals for this technology from one company based in the US and two companies based in India.

137
BODBEADS is a technology developed at the Institute of Genomics & Integrative Biology, a Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), laboratory, to serve as a ready-to-use reference seeding material in BOD analysis. The technology offers a standard seeding mixture that is not only clean, economical, and ready to use, but also gives reproducible results every time it is used for BOD testing. BOD analysis conventionally involves collecting sewage that contains microorganisms. However, not every sample of sewage contains the same number and types of microorganisms every time it is collected. This results in erroneous BOD results, which can not be reproduced. Furthermore, the entire process of collecting the sewage also delays the analysis process. In such a case, the BODBEADS technology reduces potential for error and makes the analysis an easy, clean, and convenient lab test. The technology will also ensure consistency in BOD results at both the pollution control and industrial ends. The BODBEADS technology is capable of coping with a wide range of substrates in synthetic samples as well as in industrial effluents. Although similar technologies of lower versions exist in the US and the UK currently, the BODBEADS technology, available in the form of immobilized beads, is the improved version in the global market. This is due to several of its unique properties like reusability for five times with the same efficacy and ability to yield results instantly without the need to collect sewage
samples much before the analysis. A lower version of the BODBEADS technology has been accorded validation from Central Pollution Control Board and has been included in Bureau of Indian Standards.

Catalyst Thoxcat ES is useful in extractive sweetening of LPG and liquid-liquid sweetening of lighter petroleum fractions, namely, light straight run naphtha (LSRN) and light thermally/catalytically cracked gasoline. Thoxcat ES catalyst produced by this technology is in liquid form containing catalyst active matter in dilute aqueous alkaline solution. This catalyzes the oxidation of bad smelling mercaptans present in lighter petroleum fractions to less deleterious disulfides. This is superior to commercial catalyst being used globally in terms of activity and catalyst consumption rate. The technology can be utilized in petroleum refineries worldwide. The main advantages of this innovation are: cobalt phthalocyanine sulphonamide shows enhanced catalytic activity for extractive sweetening of LPG than conventional cobalt phthalocyanine
d i s u l p h o n a t e c a t a l y s t ; a n d u n l i ke conventional catalyst, cobalt phthalocyanine sulphonamide catalyst is not dusty and does not create handling problem. Furthermore, the consumption of this catalyst is less than conventional LPG extractive sweetening catalyst for similar conversion; the catalyst slurry is extremely stable and does not get thick or form gel after long storage. Moreover, as cobalt phthalocyanine sulphonamide is insoluble in acidic medium its isolation is easier than cobalt phthalocyanines sulphonate. The patent for this technology is approved in India, the US, France, Germany and the UK. The technology has been completely developed and has been tested in commercial plants of BPCL Mumbai, RIL Jamnagar, IOCL Haldia and MRPL Mangalore.

The technology is a new titanium based gel adsorbent and photo catalyst for the separation of organic dyes from aqueous solution and its further photo catalytic degradation using solar light. The gel adsorbs the organic dyes from aqueous solution and when exposed to solar radiation, the adsorbed dye gets degraded. The
technology is especially helpful in the removal of organic dyes and colored materials from effluents originating from textile and other industries that generate colored aqueous effluent. Alternative solutions present currently in the market use adsorbents like activated charcoal, which cause secondary pollution
168
and need further treatment. In contrast, the latest innovation enables an adsorbed dye to be degraded by photo catalytic degradation, which does not need further treatment. The adsorption capacity of the latest technology is much higher (nearly 20-30 times of its w e i g h t ) c o m p a re d t o c o nv e n t i o n a l adsorbents. Additionally, the new titanium based gel adsorbent can be prepared at a low cost at the site. The adsorbent leaves crystal clear water that can be reused, once the organic dyes are removed. The adsorbed dye can be further photo catalytically degraded and reused. The technology has been developed as a labscale prototype and has been tested on industry effluents in both batch process as well as continuous processes (5 liters). Semi pilot scale experiments of the prototype were (successful as claimed by the innovators), and the industry is willing to undertake pilot plant trials.

The technology uses innovative approach to convert the algae grown in ponds, lakes, oceans and other water bodies into diesel fuel. In the industrialized world where the demand for fuel and energy is constantly resulting in depletion of fossil fuel reserves, this technology is a notable approach. Industries like automobiles, railways, ships, industrial generators and furnaces can now replace fossil fuels with the fuel derived from algae. Lakes and other water bodies are facing environmental problem on account of growth of algae and other biomass like water hyacinth. The technology overcomes the dual menace of fuel shortage and the contamination of water bodies by algae. Moreover, the technology helps in addressing the twin problems of shortage of clean drinking water and expensive fuels. Algae grown in lakes pollute the water even though algae is an excellent de-pollutant for atmospheric emissions. The importance of the technology is that the water bodies can be used as sustainable sources
of fuel for the future. The greenhouse emissions if routed through the water bodies will increase the growth of algae and the pollutants in the water from agricultural fertilizers, biological wastes etc. The high growth algae can then be used as a source for generating fuel for energy. Thus, the technology will act as a catalyst for growth of rural economies through algae farms, as a sustainable source of energy for the industry and agriculture and there will be less dependence on fossil fuels making even small countries to achieve economies of scale that will develop underdeveloped societies. The primary customers of the technology will be small enterprises, medium enterprises, villages, individuals and companies doing aqua farming for fish etc. The fuel can be sold to the local industries, refineries, farmers etc. The technology has already been tested and demonstrated in Europe and India. The company in India has a joint venture with a European company and plans to develop the algae based fuels for export and is keen to tie

Mr. T.R. Rao serves as the Chief Executive Officer at Sustainable Technologies & Environmental Projects Pvt. Ltd.
The technology is an application of nano science for the cleaning of atmospheric pollution. The nano particles when coated on vehicles, acts as a mobile pollution control device reducing the air borne pollutants as the vehicles move from place
to place. The coatings can also be applied to stationery objects and clean the air and remove pollutants. It is beneficial to all the industries that release NOx (Nitrogen oxides), SOx (Sulfur oxides) emissions etc. Moreover, it has universal applications and can fit into any model.
182
There are many companies in the market, which promote various devices based on Ultra-Violet Photocatalytic Oxidation (UV-PCO) coatings. There exists a wide spread competition for the concept but this technology has an advantage over the existing technologies. All the UV-PCO coatings require some kind of light, either UltraViolet (UV) light or visible light, depending upon the type of coating used. But the new innovation works both in visible light and even in the absence of light. This is because the coating uses nano technology, a step beyond the photoactive Nano TiO2 coatings. Therefore, the technology can be used even in confined places or places where there is no electricity available and hence no light. On the other hand, the approach that uses light as a source of energy cannot function in dark spaces. Furthermore, the technology can be applied to all substrates like metals, glass, paper, wood, ceramics, plastic etc. making it readily acceptable. Also, the technology uses a unique primer as binder that gives it longer life. Another advantage that this technology has over other similar technologies is that it doesn't use particulate filters, electrostatic precipitators, chemical reagents, absorbants, zeolites, catalytic converters etc. therefore reducing the subsequent disposal problem. Also, the operating cost for the technology is very low because the coatings are non-consumable and does not require energy. For example: in case of industrial chimneys, the
purpose of pollution control devices is to convert the noxious emissions into harmless gases when released into atmosphere. To achieve this industries use chemical reagents etc. while the new technology is a coating inside the chimney which gets activated by the ingredients in the chimney gases and continues to convert the pollutants into oxides which are not detrimental to atmosphere.

The pedal crank assembly facilitates an increase in effective length of the crank arm. This helps to produce almost double the torque generated by a traditional pedal crank in a manually driven vehicle under the same force. It amplifies the power output under the same force using mechanical advantage and therefore, saves energy. Doubling of torque will give rise to doubling of output by all manually driven equipments from the existing level. This technology can be fitted on a bicycle, rickshaw and other equipment which are manually driven. Higher torque can be used to increase the comfort of driving, increase speed of the vehicle, increase the amount of load that can be pulled by such vehicle without any other change or any other source of power. The increased torque will give rise to many other possibilities such as vehicles for several specialized purposes such as ambulance and agricultural farming, particularly for rural areas.

These micronutrient fertilizers can be used in agriculture. The fertilizers are designed to be suitable for any soil, crop or agro-climatic condition. The fertilizers provide highly effective sources of micronutrients that increase crop yields by 20%-40% with small applications, which are one-fourth to one-tenth of the normal dosages. They can substantially increase productivity of crops such as cereals, pulses and vegetables and thereby, improve economic conditions of the farmers. For instance, as per the test information provided by the company, the fertilizers resulted in over 30% increase in the production of rice, wheat and maize; 25% increase in gram, 25% increase in cabbage and radish; 100% increase in chillies, 50% increase in spinach, significantly higher nutrient levels in crops and increase in vitamin C content. The micronutrients can be combined with each other as well as with other NPK fertilizers. Use of such slow-release fe r t i l i ze rs c o u l d d ra s t i c a l l y c u t d o w n micronutrient dosages, which are at present very high because of low use-efficiency of the soluble salts. This could also lead to more favorable economic use of fertilizers and thereby encourage micronutrient usage. This fertilizer could provide an environment-friendly alternative to the traditional approach.
