Bioremediation of oily sludge at Barauni Refinery
November 1, 2004 to
August 26, 2006
Barauni refinery is located in the eastern part of the country and generate oily sludge containing various hazardous petroleum hydrocarbons. The aim of project is bioremediation of 5000 MT (million tonnes) of oily sludge by using Oilivorous-S. The total 5000 MT oily sludge would be treated in four batches. Oilivorous-S is a bacterial consortium capable of degrading toxic hyrdocarbon compounds and has been developed by a joint colloborative research between TERI and IOCL R&D centre.Bioremediation of oily sludge by Oilivorous-S technology and monitoring of ground water quality at Mathura Refinery

August 25, 2006
The objectives are to (1) design a framework for identifying and assessing SDI (sustainable development indicators) for India, indicating what modifications would be required for international comparisons; (2) compile the indicator series, to the extent possible, for the last decade which, would be undertaken for one state as a pilot test; (3) identify the data gaps/inconsistencies and suggest how these could be resolved to ensure a regular flow of information to support the indicators developed; (4) recommend the appropriate institutional and information coordinating mechanism at the centralSystem Requirements Specifications Study of Energy Management Information System (EMIS) for Kolkata Port Trust

Kolkata is the oldest major port in the country. But the nucleus of the present day Kolkata Port lies much earlier - with the grant of trading rights to the British Settlement in Eastern India by the Moghal Emperor Aurangzeb. The city of Kolkata has a synergistic linkage with the port.Renewable based DDGs: from commisioning to viability"

To apprise and train the regulators and policy makers in Andhra Pradesh, about the international instruments like German Feed-in Tariff; Renewable Tax Credit (RTC) and Renewable Energy Obligation (REO). The project activities would include:
Investigate barriers to the renewables based electricity supply.
Analyse policies that influence the renewables based electricity sector including the Electricity Act 2003.
Analyse the international instruments/policies and the underlying principles that drive them.
