Bharat Petroleum bags FICCI award for sustainability in the Petrochemical Sector


Bharat Petroleum bags FICCI award for sustainability in the Petrochemical Sector



·         Company won the award for ‘Petroleum Sludge Valorisation’ process under the category ‘Sustainability award for the best green process in the petrochemical sector’

 

Mumbai, March 22, 2021: Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL), a ‘Maharatna’ and a Fortune Global 500 Company bagged a prestigious award from the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI) under the category ‘Sustainability award for the best green process in the petrochemical sector’. The Company received the award for ‘Petroleum Sludge Valorisation’, a novel concept of valorizing tank bottom sludge and renewable biomass and generating a versatile solid fuel. Dr. Chiranjeevi Thota, Deputy General Manager (R&D) received the award on behalf of the Company, which was conferred by Mr. Mansukh Mandviya, Hon’ble Union Minister of State, Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, Mr. Yogendra Tripathi, Secretary, Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals and Deepak Mehta-Chairman, FICCI Chemical Committee, and C&MD Deepak Nitrate Ltd.

 

The solid fuel ‘Petrolet’ that is formed after the process of combining two waste materials has numerous applications in low-cost conventional heating, steam generation, etc. Another advantage of this process is that it is environmental-friendly as the mixture of the oily sludge and bio-mass is then used in firing the kilns thereby replacing the requirement of high-cost conventional fuel. Due to this process, several thousand tonnes of petroleum sludge generated in refineries is used in gasifiers as a feedstock, thereby reducing wastage. The final product possesses a calorific value that is at par with coal used for furnace applications. This fuel mixture can be used as such or can be co-fired with coal or liquid fuels to enhance its heat value.

 

The oil sludge generated by refineries is one of the major sources of environmental pollution and is categorized as hazardous waste by Environment Protection Act and Hazardous Wastes Handling Rules. Bharat Petroleum’s Corporate Research & Development Centre developed this concept to replace the earlier process of bio-remediated sludge that used to take 6-10 months and was very expensive. Through this new process, the Company’s R&D team has not only came up with quick and environmentally acceptable solutions; but also made it cost-effective compared to the earlier processes.

Fashionable clothes, fancy cars- all had a permanent place in the life of Dawood Ibrahim”- says actor Ashwat Kanth

Fashionable clothes, fancy cars- all had a permanent place in the life of Dawood Ibrahim”- says actor Ashwat Kanth


“You win half the battle if you look your character” says Ashwat Kanth, the newest Dawood Ibrahim of Bollywood.

In RGV’s underworld, characters are real. From adapting the nuances to looking exactly like their part, actors manage to create a world so realist for the audience that they become a part of it.

Such is Ashwat’s character of Dawood. He describes the film as an in depth, detailed journey of a young boy from Dongri to becoming the most wanted man in the world who runs the biggest crime empire-  D Company.

“We have kept the styling of my character very real. You will see the change as and when the story proceeds. From a boy in pant and shirt from Dongri to this man with the most fashionable wardrobe and lavish lifestyle” says Ashwat.




Renowned Carnatic Violinist, Composer, and Guru Smt. Vasantha Kannan releases a unique Thillana with daughter and disciple Calcutta K. Srividya and son Mohan Kannan

 Renowned Carnatic Violinist, Composer, and Guru Smt. Vasantha Kannan releases a unique Thillana with daughter and disciple Calcutta K. Srividya and son Mohan Kannan


 

Mumbai, 17th March 2021: Renowned and leading Carnatic Classical violinist, composer, and Guru, Smt Vasantha Kannan releases a Thillana with daughter and disciple Calcutta K. Srividya and son Mohan Kannan. The composition, performed by the trio with Smt Vasantha Kannan and Calcutta K Srividya both on vocals as well as violin, and Mohan Kannan providing support through guitar and backing vocals, has brought out a unique experience for the audience.

 

This is the first-ever known classical composition in the rare raagam, Kadyutha Ganthi.

 

Thillana is a rhythmic piece in Carnatic music that is generally performed at the end of a concert and also widely used in classical Indian dance performances. The presence of Jatis (or bols) for the most part of the Thillana clearly distinguishes it from other composition formats. Jatis and swarams constitute the pallavi, anupallavi, and the latter part of the charanam, while lyrics form the initial part of the charanam.

 

Smt Vasantha Kannan’s Thillana (Kadyutha Ganthi Raagam, Adi Thaalam), while following the traditional format, is presented with a progressive approach of blending guitar and harmonies, a concept more common in western or popular music.

Speaking about the overall Thillana, Smt. Vasantha Kannan shares, “The idea of this Thillana came to me as I was exploring the rare melodious ragam Kadyutha Ganthi which fascinated me. Since there are no known compositions in this ragam, I have brought in the basic structure of the ragam through the arohanam and avarohanam as part of the lyrics of the Thillana itself. I'm very happy with the way the composition has turned out and I am doubly happy about having my children with me on the Thillana.”

Speaking about the association with her mother and brother, Calcutta K. Srividya shares, “It was a fantastic, enjoyable experience doing this with my mother and brother! We saw Amma compose the whole thillana in just 2 days.. and the fun started when the three of us had innumerable conversations to come up with this format and to record and shoot the whole thing at home in the current scenario!”

 

Sharing his views, singer and composer Mohan Kannan says, “This is one of the most gratifying experiences of my life, to be working with my mother and sister on a song that is purely classical and can still appeal to listeners from all over the world. It was challenging and exciting at the same time to try and introduce guitars and harmonies into the Thillana without compromising the purity of the composition or the Raagam.”
