The project aims to identify molecular markers linked to YVMV resistance in Okra using mapping populations. A number of strategies such as QTL mapping and bulked segregant analysis will be done for this purpose.
The high oxygen content, acidity and immiscibility with petroleum fuels hinders large-scale applicability of bio-oil obtained via pyrolysis of biomass. This project proposes to develop a technology for Catalytic Two-Stage Stabilization and Upgradation of Bio-oil for enhanced stability and potential applications as fuels. The first stage in the proposed work aims decreasing oxygen content and acidity for better stability of bio-oil.
The project is an upcoming World HQ building in Gurgaon and will involve different resource optimisation techniques with an aim to achieve 5-star GRIHA rating. The resource optimisation involves optimisation of energy and water consumption of the building. The optimisation will be done at different stages of the project and will start right at the construction stage by optimising the building design in terms of proper orientation, shading of wall, roof and glass. Various options of energy-efficient building envelope, lighting system, HVAC system will be analysed.
The Norwegian Embassy is adding a residential and chancery block on the existing campus and wants to get GRIHA rating. The objective is to design and energy optimization for compliance with GRIHA rating of the new blocks in the campus. The project would incorporate a comprehensive landscape design along with other sustainable design interventions.
Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) is coming up with a new Zonal Office building at Bhopal with a builtup area of around 17000 sqft. CPCB management envisages the proposed project to be a GRIHA rated project and intends to achieve the best standards in green building design and thus to achieve it TERI has been to render GRIHA consultancy and Facilitation services. Following aspects of the green building design are currently being covered under the project - 1. Sustainable Site planning2. Building design Optimization3. Energy Performance Optimization
The project objective includes providing green building consultancy and facilitation services for the upcoming buildings of ONGC in Chennai.The project comprises of an office building, recreation block, apartments (G+18), transit buildings and regional store.
