A team of students from the Dept. of Biotechnology, NMAMIT won the "Best Project of the year 2018-19" award at the 42nd Annual Student Project Seminar & Exhibition conducted by Karnataka State Council for Science & Technology (KSCST), IISc , Bengaluru, at KLE Society's Dr. M. S. Sheshgiri College of Engineering & Technology, Belagavi on 26th and 27th July, 2019.
Ms. Inchara Crasta, Ms. Ashwini Shenoy, Ms. Soumya Rao and Ms. Udbhavi of the team received this award for their final year project “Process intensification of bioethanol production through simultaneous saccharification and extractive fermentation” under Biofuels category.
This project was guided by Mr. Venkatesh Kamath H, Asst. Professor and Prof. Dr. C. Vaman Rao, HoD, Biotechnology. Dr. Udipi Shrinivasa, Emeritus Professor of Mechanical Engg., IISc Bengaluru, a pioneer in biofuel revolution in India presented the award, which included a cash prize, citation and certificate.
Earlier, this project team had also received KSCST student project grant and VTU student project grant for their innovative projects. In this project, the team had demonstrated the production of bioethanol from Pongamia (Honge) oil cake using an integrated technique to solve system complexities and to reduce operation cost. They had also designed and fabricated two different lab-scale bioreactor modules for this operation.
