Proposal for Challenge of Urban Solid Waste through power generation in Karnataka State (KERC) 1.A preliminary assessment of the City solid waste chain and existing supportive policy, legal and management systems; 2.To study the cost structure of existing/operational waste to energy plants and assesses their financial health; 3.The technology in place and technical performance of the existing/operational waste to energy plants in terms of PLF / availability.
Study on the sustainability of Biomass based power generation in Karnataka
December 27, 2017 to
December 27, 2017
To take up the study of KERC on sustainability of bio-mass based power generation in Karnataka. Following are the objectives of the study: To study the cost structure of exisiting plants and assesses their financial health, the technical performance of the existing plants in terms of PLF / availability, the existing arrangement of procuring fuel / assessment of fuel risk in terms of quantum and cost and the proposed arrangement for mitigating the fuel risk in terms of quantum and cost.
Support to Madhya Pradesh Madhya Kshetra Distribution Company Limited (MPMKDCL) in implementing rooftop solar power plants
March 14, 2017 to
December 15, 2017
The MP government has desired the MPMKDCL to support the installation of 10 MW additional rooftop solar plants in the state. Following a MPMKDCL request, the MNRE has sanctioned 10 MW capacity to MPMKDCL and desired the German Development Cooperation to extend its support.
In this effort, TERI is providing consultancy services to the German Development Cooperation to supporting implementation of the rooftop solar power plants in the DISCOM’s network.

High throughout metagenomic approach for probiotic lactic acid bacteria from camel milk
September 29, 2014 to
October 28, 2017
Lactic acid bacteria are widely distributed in different raw materials viz. milk, meat, flour, soil, water plants, silage, waste products and also in the intestinal tract of animals and humans. Camel milk is different from other ruminant milk in nutritional as well as therapeutic value and also is a rich source of proteins with potential antimicrobial and protective activities. In the proposed work, lactic acid bacteria will be isolated and characterized using molecular tools and will be monitored for their prospective probiotics properties.
