Title: Valorising waste from sugar cane and associated Industries via Innovations in pre-treatment Biotransformation and processIntensificationdated: 31.08.2018"
About the project: This project is aimed at transforming wastes generated by sugar and associated industries in India to renewable energy and valuable chemicals. The focus is on developing approach, capabilities and know-how which will provide better access to energy, improve economic viability of bio-refinery, promote new industries and generate employment in rural areas of India. The goal is to develop the technological solutions for economically transforming selected waste streams to products and facilitate commercialization of developed technologies. Appropriate industry partners and local stake holders from India are involved on co-creating this vision and objectives.
Salary : Consolidated salary Rs.38000/- p.m. + HRA
