Development of tailor made nanozeolite carrier for slow release and targeted delivery of nitrogen for sustainable crop production
January 1, 2018
| Ongoing project
The project aims to develop technology for highly efficacious nitrogenous fertilizer using the tailor made mesoporous nanozeolite carrier that can enable the slow release and targeted delivery of the nitrogen.
Mapping, identification of molecular markers associated with heat tolerance QTLs in tomato
December 27, 2017
| Ongoing project
| Sustainable Agriculture
Tomato is one of the most significant vegetable crops grown worldwide. However, important traits such as pollen meiosis, germination, ovule development, viability and development of the embryo and fruit set of most tomato cultivars are adversely affected under temperatures higher than 35°C. This leads to non-availability in certain months.
Life cycle assessment of Hot Mix and Cold Mix technologies for Construction and Maintenance of Rural Roads
December 27, 2017
| Ongoing project
| Transport | Environment | Sustainable Habitat
The project aims to study these hot mix and CRRI-Bitchem cold mix technology applications for rural road construction and maintenance works in India in order to estimate and compare their life cycle cost, energy consumption, GHG and criteria pollutants generation, material consumption, impacts on safety and health of construction workers and population, road maintenance requirements, and projec
Project STARs: Sustainable Tracking, Action and Reporting in Schools
December 27, 2017
| Ongoing project
Project STARs - a pioneering ESD project in the state of Goa explored the principles of sustainable development through the adoption of the 3C sustainable school concept. It was a three year project (2013-2016) jointly implemented by the Dempo Group of Companies, and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) across 10 schools in Goa.
Urban Farming in Navi Mumbai Eco-City
December 27, 2017
| Ongoing project
| Sustainable Habitat
Eco–city broadly means a human settlement modelled on the self–sustaining structure and functioning of natural ecosystems. It is developed on the lines of integrated urban planning and management programmes addressing social and ecological health of the city.
Strengthening evidence-based advocacy for influenza prevention and control in India
December 27, 2017
| Ongoing project
| Air
This is an evidence- based study involving air quality assessment in the household environment. TERI’s role in this study is to provide aid in the monitoring of particulate matter (PM2.5) at the household level. This project will cover air quality assessment of around 50 households in the village belt of Ballabhgarh Tehsil of Faridabad district in Haryana.
Assessing the co-benefits of a low carbon development pathway for India
December 27, 2017
| Ongoing project
| Air
The objective of the project is to estimate co-benefits of the GHG mitigation strategies on air quality, human health and agricultural productivity. This calls for the following: a) Preparation of high-resolution emission inventory based on energy modelling results of the MARKAL/TIMES model for the policy scenarios developed under the on-going WRI/TERI study.
