Project-I: Recycling of waste streams: Chemical recycling of plastics and used polycotton textiles into chemicals and dissolving pulp.

Project-II: Organosolv catalytic fractionation of Biomass/bio-based forestry waste residues into fuels & high value dissolving wood pulp. We make polymer dope using Ionic liquids/NMMO/CS2 and extrude using high-pressure syringe pump to obtain the textile fibers by Lyocell, Ioncell and Viscose process.
