JNCASR, Breathe signed MoU to scale up technology to reduce CO2

Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) has signed an MoU with Breathe Applied Sciences, a company incubated at JNCASR for transfer of technology based on lab-scale research on reducing CO2 to methanol and other useful chemicals and fuels.

The MOU aims for a smooth translation of the research in the area of CO2 reduction to useful chemicals and fuels from the laboratory scale to pilot scale economically.

It will highlight the scientific contribution of a research institute translating to the industry to solve the problems associated with renewable energy and environmental pollution.

It will also help in developing an indigenous technology in line with government policy.

The MoU is important as the conversion of CO2 to clean fuels such as methanol and other useful chemicals on the scale with cost-effectiveness is a needed measure to address sustainable development, environmental, and climate.
