Nanotechnology based solutions for control of Agricultural pests
Abstract: Application of nanotechnology for the control of agricultural pests is an emerging field of research. It is driven by the realization that they are more effective and are equally competent in terms of their biocidal potential and that too at significantly low concentrations as compared to conventional pesticides. Unscrupulous application of larger volumes of chemical pesticides has many harmful effects including, acute toxicity to animals and human beings (up on …

Transforming Carbon: The Science and Potential of Gasification
Abstract: Methanol and chemicals like urea and ammonia, which are the building blocks of many fertilizers, can be produced via the gasification process. Additionally, gasification can assist in the production of transportation fuels from biomass, coal, oil, and sands. Drying, pyrolysis, combustion, cracking, and reduction are the five distinct thermal processes that make up gasification. Drying removes moisture from the feedstock, while pyrolysis breaks down complex hydrocarbons into simpler molecules. Combustion …
