GREEN SEPARATION ENGINEERING LAB
(GSEL)
Green Planet has been the mantra of contemporary world owing to its ethical value. Recent global awareness on sustainability has led to establishment of agencies that are stringent in executing green principles. Beyond protecting the environment, these practices guarantee replenishment of Mother Nature acting as essential part of futuristic technologies. The green wheel also grants facility to accomplish critical missions with minimal risks and enhanced efficiency. Our research entity, GSEL acts as a crowning establishment that provides extensive facilities in executing these projects of great societal importance
Designer green practices have versatile applications that extend from acting as critical part of biological process like Bioremediation, Extraction and Benign catalysts till as universal substituents of electrolytes in batteries, conducting elements in biosensors and diodes in organic LED displays, which make them inevitable in contemporary world.
