that I would study Biology at the University. Cells never fail to amaze me; these highly-sophisticated micro machines built out of membranes, organelles and proteins are truly a triumph of form and function! My curiosity in Biology, especially in cells, grows as the level of detail I learn gets deeper. For example, the process of protein synthesis, an ingenious mechanism that carefully assembles amino acid chains and holds them in shape. As well as the molecular aspect, I also enjoyed my field trip
Communities and civilization have developed and flourished around water, as water is the most important necessity for economic and societal development. Urbanization, population and industrialization have depleted the clean drinking water sources. Their chemical and biological contaminations no more render them potable. Water borne diseases are one of the main reasons for premature mortalities in the world, especially among the economically weaker sections.[1] Children are vulnerable to attacks
transportation and diverse industrial mechanisms. Secondary biofuels can be produced in the form of solids (e.g. charcoal, fuelwood, wood pellets), or liquids (e.g. ethanol, biodiesel, butanol, pyrolysis oils and bio-oil), or gases (e.g. biogas, synthesis gas, methane and hydrogen) (Nigam & Singh, 2011). The secondary biofuels can be segregated into first, second and third-generation biofuels based on the substrate availability, technology maturity and GHG gas emission balance. (Bharathidasan et al
