Known for its rich marine biodiversity, South and Southeast Asia are becoming hotspots of plastic leakage.
The landscape of biofuels in India is complex and evolving fast, with a growing variety of conversion pathways from raw biomass to final energy end-use.
Air pollution is a global concern contributing to a wide range of health risks. According to the World Health Organisation data, around 7 million people die worldwide every year from exposure to the polluted air. More than 80% of people living in urban areas are exposed to concentrations higher than the level recommended by the WHO.
The broad set of activities of this assignment would be as follows: (1) Provide in-depth analysis of the multiple benefits of energy efficiency in India; (2) Provide in-depth analysis on industrial energy efficiency in India; (3) Provide in-depth analysis on buildings energy efficiency in India; (4) Provide in-depth analysis on energy efficient cooling in Ind
TERI, in collaboration with the European Union International Urban Cooperation programme, are delivering a capacity building programme on 'Mainstreaming Urban Climate Action'. The programme includes four webinars with resource modules focusing on building the capacity and knowledge of practitioners in urban local bodies (ULBs), policy experts, researchers, scholars, and university students.
The project aims in providing the local communities safe and sustainable market places, which will subsequently boost their business to a great level. The existing market spaces are not structured and 90% of the vendors put up their stalls by the roadside, thereby making it very unsafe for trade.
The main objectives of the workshops are to: (1) recognize the issues, challenges and constraints of Solid Waste Management; (2) understand the Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016; (3) awareness on various approaches, technologies, and their financial implications; (4) plan to implement solutions in their city; (5) achieve capacity building of ULB staff for im
Discharge of untreated wastewater has resulted in contamination of 75% of all surface water bodies in India. Our water resources are under severe stress resulting from overexploitation and pollution.
In an earlier project rubber wastewater discharge has been remediated with biofilm developed by microalgal and bacteria consortia isolated from waste. Lead findings are microalgae/bacteria either in planktonic or biofilm environment the wastewater pH rose from 4 to 12 in a week with substantial reduction of N, PO4, COD and TDS.
The current assignment aims is supporting Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) units in implementation of the energy-efficiency, renewable energy and technology upgradation measures by enabling access to easy and concessional finance (debt and third-party equity), facilitating technology tie-up with manufacturers, suppliers and energy servic
