Mr. Chirag Kanagiyani, Third-year mechanical engineering student (170113119009) has filed an Indian patent on “HYBRID VERNIER- a multipurpose linear precision measuring instrument” (Application no. 201931006394, dated 18/02/2019). The proposed tool has a least count of 1 micron (0.001 mm), along with the ability to measure all the general purpose quantities and several essential quantities of threads and gears, as well. Which includes thread’s major diameter, minor diameter and pith, and gear’s tooth thickness and pitch. This tool is specifically customized for small production units [e.g. small industries, ancillary manufacturers, workshops and start-ups], with an aim to reduce their tooling cost/investment in inspection tools. In the areas where the batch size is limited [small] and the frequency at which these inspection processes are being conducted is relatively less, in a calendar year.

Chemical Engineering Department received a huge research grant of Rs. 98 lakhs 32 thousand for a research project on “A Novel eco-friendly hybrid process for enrichment of sodium lignosulphonate from digester black liquor of Prosopis juliflora hard wood” from Department of Science & Technology (DST), Ministry of Science & Technology, Govt. of India. The research team of scientists involved in the project includes Dr. Kaushik Nath, Dr. Suresh Panchani as Principal Investigator and Dr. Tejal M Patel and Dr. K K Tiwari are Co investigators. The project involves the utilization of black liquor from ‘Ganda Baowr’ hard-wood digestion for the production of ‘Sodium ligno- sulfonate’ – an important binder for vitrified tiles. Presently in India ligno-sulfonate is not produced commercially, it is imported from South Africa and China. It is a 3-year project whereby the project team will design, develop and run a pilot plant which will be very unique for a specialized application. The Chairman of CVM Er. Bhikhubhai Patel congratulated all the team members along with the Principal of GCET Dr. Himanshu Soni for getting such a project from DST. The chairman, CVM expressed his hope that by carrying out the project and setting up a pilot plant the department of Chemical Engineering will make a distinct difference in the field of research and development throughout Gujarat.
