The Future of Sugar at the Upcoming Conference

The world of sugar is stirring! Consumer habits are evolving, and groundbreaking technologies are changing the game. To navigate these exciting shifts, the sugar industry is buzzing with innovation. Enter the upcoming Sugar Conference - a vital gathering where industry leaders will convene to chart the course for a sustainable sugar future.

From Cane to Clean Fuel: Bioenergy Takes Center Stage

A key focus of the conference will be the burgeoning field of bioenergy and ethanol production. Sugarcane, a natural powerhouse, holds the potential to become a game-changer in the energy sector. Ethanol, a clean-burning fuel derived from sugarcane, can significantly reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. The conference promises to delve into the latest advancements in bioenergy and ethanol production, exploring the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

Sugar: Redefining Sweetness for a Health-Conscious World

The conference will also turn its attention to the evolving role of sugar itself. With health concerns at the forefront of consumer minds, sugar consumption is on the decline. However, sugar can still be a part of a balanced diet when enjoyed responsibly. The conference will explore innovative ways to promote the benefits of sustainable sugar production and ensure its continued viability for farmers.

IIT Madras : Technology Conclave for Social Impact

Navneet Kr. Gupta Newswave @ Mumbai Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IIT-M) conducted for the first time in Mumbai a ‘Technology Conclave for Social Impact’ to showcase the pioneering work underway in the Institute in various fields.

IIT Madras faculty explained their research underway to tackle problems in water, health and sanitation besides using data science for addressing social issues during this Conclave. With the Institute having one of the top entrepreneurship ecosystems in the country, the participants were also given a briefing on how IIT Madras Incubation Cell helps students to convert their innovations to start-ups in deep tech. Game-changing solutions Prof Bhaskar Ramamurthi, Director, IIT Madras, said, “It is not widely appreciated that our faculty and students carry out research and technology development, and pursue innovations, that leave a fairly immediate and deep impact on society. Through this conclave, IIT Madras wishes to bring such work to the fore and develop deeper collaborations with industry, philanthropic foundations and other stake-holders so that we can bring to our people game-changing solutions to our pressing challenges.”

Prof. Mahesh Panchagnula, Dean (International & Alumni Relations) said, “We are now able to undertake projects in the last 20 years that would have been unthinkable earlier. Technology is now dominating the way of life now. At IIT Madras, we have chosen not only to develop the technology prototype in-house, but we also actively look at its scalability.” Prof. Mahesh said, “We have faculty pursuing pure research at the global level, we have Professors who work with the industry actively and solve their day-to-day problems and Researchers working on social problems and developing solutions that are scalable. An Institute such as IIT Madras thrives on diversity of ideas and that is what is being showcased during this Conclave.” India generates 120 billion litres of water per day Prof Ligy Philip, Dean (Planning) said, “As the second most populated nation in the world, India generates 120 billion litres of water and 720,000 tons of waste per day. A paradigm shift is necessary, and waste should be viewed as a resource. The waste water generated at households are dumped without processing, thereby contaminating waterbodies.” Vichoor, a panchayat with 250 residents located North of Chennai, was chosen to implement this project. Awareness programs and society-driven waste management systems were formulated, and the village volunteers were trained to man the composting/biogas plants. He said, “Now, 1,300 kg is being generated per day at Vichoor and the compost generated from this waste is sold for Rs. 20 per kg. Many waste generated by households such as papers and plastic are now being sold to appropriate traders. The reasons behind success of this project is due to good support of the local villagers and industry showed interest in working on this project. We are also executing more projects with support from TECHNIP and Chennai Petroleum Corporation Ltd (CPCL).” In a conversation between industry and academia, representatives from Virtusa and Robert Bosch, (two corporates that are already working with IIT Madras), experiences were shared and the impact such collaboration can create were discussed.
