years
Biotechnology is an emerging sector seeking
development in the diverse areas of Tissue Engineering,
Microfluidics, Biomedicine, BioMEMS, Biosensors,
Pharmaceutical, Bioprocess Technologies and
Nanotechnology.
Biotech is the latest sunrise sector. Analysts
feel that biotech industry may surpass IT and
ITeS in overall growth and employment generation,
Forex earnings, patent registration, etc. India
is considered as one of the hottest biotech
destinations. Several people across the world
believe that India will be able to produce companies
of highest calibre in the future.
India’s skill and capabilities in biotech
is well recognized. But rapid growth of the
industry will ultimately depend on availability
of quality manpower and good educational institutions
in the country. Dayananda Sagar College of Biological
Sciences situated in the country’s BT
capital, Bangalore is one of the best institutes
for not only offering higher education in biotechnology
but also to be able to give hands-on experience
and training using advanced equipments &
instruments.
BIOLOGICAL
TREATMENT
Earthworms
are used to abate water pollution due
to distillery units and convert it along
with solid wastes from other industries
to produce useable bio fertilizers. Ideally
100 tonnes of vermi-compost could be produced
by 6,000 earthworms into an acre of land
where the effluents could be let out with
20% other vegetative wastes. This is an
eco friendly, energy saving method that
carries the additional promise of yielding
manure that is 30% more efficacious than
the vegetative vermi-compost. The earthworms
fed on distillery wastes on being isolated
from soil, also constitute ideal fishmeal
or feed for poultry or piggery and contribute
to development of proteins for human consumption. |
