CSIR-IICT and ReSL Sign Pact for Sustainability Research
Two groups in India decided to work together to help the environment.
One group is a science laboratory called CSIR-IICT.
The other group is a company called Re Sustainability Limited.
They signed a special paper called a memorandum of understanding.
This paper says they will team up on new projects.
They want to find better ways to recycle plastic waste.
They also want to turn trash into useful things and clean dirty water from factories.
They will work on ways to capture carbon, which is a gas that warms the planet.
Their goal is to make technologies that help India become more sustainable.
The leaders of both groups said working together will make a bigger difference.
CSIR-IICT and Re Sustainability Limited signed a strategic umbrella MoU in Hyderabad.
The partnership covers advanced research, technology development, scale-up and commercialisation of sustainable environmental solutions.
Focus areas include chemical and advanced recycling of plastic waste, waste-to-value technologies and resource recovery.
The collaboration also targets bio-based green chemical processes, industrial wastewater treatment and carbon capture technologies.
Leaders from both organisations said the pact would accelerate technologies supporting India's sustainability goals.
