Notes from the lab,
the pilot, the field.
A working register of process engineering writing, field-trial summaries, and the occasional opinion on what India's bioeconomy should be doing differently. Updated as the work calls for it — not on a schedule.
We publish when the work has taught us something, not when the calendar asks.

Why bamboo pulp is the quietly important 2G feedstock for Northeast India.
Northeast India holds about 67% of the country’s bamboo growing stock and ships most of its pulp residue out as low-value mill byproduct. We make a case for treating it as a primary lignocellulosic feedstock — and walk through the cocktail calibration that takes a properly pretreated bamboo substrate past 85% …
