QuestionsR&D Global Scenario
❖Corporate funding on decline
❖R&D intensity measured not by expenditure but byeffectiveness
❖R&D driven by business needs
❖Cutback on R&D middle management; Empowercross functional teams with project responsibility
❖External technology sourcing as corporate strategy
❖Mega corporate R&D alliances
QuestionsScope for Indigenous Technology
Development
❖ Dependence on Foreign Countries
❖ Expensive Licensing fee
❖ Joint Ventures
❖ Protective Technologies
❖ Highly proprietary
QuestionsChemical Industry’s Transition: Sustainable Future
Production (Chemical/Design/Operational efficiencies)
❖ Directly stimulate investment in RD&D
❖ Establish and extend plant-level benchmarking schemes
❖ Pursue effective regulatory actions to reduce CO2 emissions
❖ Require industry to meet stringent air quality standards
❖ Fuel and feedstock selection & prices should reflect actual
market value
QuestionsChemical Industry’s transition: Sustainable Future
Use & Disposal:
❖ Reduce reliance on single-use plastics
❖ Improve waste management
❖ Raise consumer awareness
❖ Design products with disposal in mind
❖ Extend producer responsibility
QuestionsTechnology gaps and way forward
❖ Biodegradable and bio-based polymers for various
applications
❖ Polymer Composites & Nano-composites for Structural
components
❖ Separation & purification membranes : Cost-effective water
purification / desalination, gas separation etc.
❖ Energy efficient processes for innovative product design and
development
❖ Specialty applications to embrace newer, cutthroat
technologies and innovations for generating affordable and
qualitative products
Questions
