Nano-biosensors and Microfluidics for Healthcare: Non-Invasive Techniques based on Nano-biosensors for Diabetes Detection
Central theme of this project is based on detection of exhale breath acetone, bio-marker for diabetes. The exhale breath acetone concentration >2 ppm in breath is considered as diabetic. Accordingly, a gas sensor has been developed based on ternary nanocomposites...
Utilization of toxic waste in glass making
Arsenic contamination of groundwater is a major challenge causing serious arsenic poisoning to large numbers of people. There are several ways to remove arsenic from the ground water in order to make suitable for human consumption. However, arsenic contaminated sludge...

An integrated technology development for biosorption with ceramic membrane based microfiltration treatment of toxic metal containing wastewater
The spent biosorbent generated after multi-metal (Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II)) biosorption using dried activated waste tannery sludge were applied for glyphosate removal. The removal efficiency could be enhanced from 26.18 % to >92% after increase in the...
Superior fused magnesia from impure Indian magnesite for self-sustenance
Magnesia is the most important refractory raw materials used mainly in the steel and cement industries. Indian magnesite (mostly of Salem and Almora origin) is a less-preferred variant amidst the harsh steelmaking conditions (tapping temperature > 1700oC and slag...
Fast recovery trace moisture sensor and meter for detection of trace moisture present in transformer oil
10 Gamma alumina-based trace moisture sensors (2-50ppm) have been fabricated. These sensors were mounted on threaded Teflon holders which can be fitted into transformer oil filtration units for detection of trace moisture present in transformer oil. For laboratory...
Development of pulsed Yb-fiber laser for marking
A ‘ready-to-use’ Pulsed Yb-Fiber laser module has been developed. M/s Spinks Impex, Gurugram, completed thorough performance evaluation of 20W pulsed fiber laser module by synchronizing their existing marking system with the indigenously developed electronic...
Paper-based Ceramic Separator for Li-ion Battery Application
A semi-automated apparatus has been designed and fabricated by CSIR-CGCRI which is capable of producing the developed paper-based separator in large volume in the form of rolls of 50-100 meters long of varied width for fabrication of Li-ion batteries(for example 18650...
