Sujit Sagar Modi's Talk
Abstract: The demand for sustainable carbon precursors is growing due to greenhouse gas emissions associated with the current dependence on fossil resources. Lignocellulose can potentially displace fossil resources given its renewable origin, abundance, and geographical distribution. However, a key to the economic viability and sustainability of lignocellulosic biorefineries is the valorization of lignin streams generated as waste byproducts.
Dr Partha P. Maitra's Talk
Brief Biosketch of the Speaker:
Partha Maitra directs strategic planning for the Oil-to-Chemical business at Reliance Industries, including Crude Oil to Chemical or COTC and sustainability. Started his career at Fluor, Houston, working on energy efficiency projects at the ExxonMobil refineries, and modernization projects at the BP refineries, in the US.
Conceptualized the Mangalore Refinery & Petrochemicals project, prior to Reliance.
Dr. Anand Jadhav's Talk
Abstract: Bulk nanobubbles (BN) are a novel type of nanoscale bubble system. They are spherical with a typical diameter of 100-200 nm, and they exist in bulk liquid. The most peculiar characteristic of these BN is their extraordinary longevity. Existing theories, however, predict a huge inner gas pressure (typically around 30 atm.) and, consequently, molecular diffusion theory would predict that they would dissolve extremely quickly - on a timescale of about 1 microsecond.
Dr. Sandeep karode's Talk
Abstract:
In this seminar we will cover Industrial Gas Separation with a focus on Air Liquide Membrane Technology. Air Liquide is the Industrial Leader in Gas Separation and its Membrane Research Division has produced the widest range of Industrial Gas Separation Membrane products for any single Industrial Gas Company.

Prof. Ganapathy Ayappa's talk
With rising bacterial resistance there is a dire need to develop a molecular understanding of the interactions of antimicrobial molecules with the complex topology of the bacterial cell envelope. The translocation pathways associated with molecules from the extracellular environment into the bacterial cell is poorly understood. In this talk I will summarize our ongoing efforts aimed at understanding the barrier properties of the bacterial cell envelopes of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains.
