Methane from gas hydrate deposits could be a viable energy alternative. The investigations in Krishna-Godavari (KG) and Mahanadi offshore basins and Andaman Sea have established the occurrence of gas hydrate in varied forms. However, the KG offshore basin is one of the most promising petroliferous basins.
Air pollution is a growing problem in India. Factories, power plants, automobiles and dust, smoke from bush fires and volcanic eruptions are responsible for pollution. The deterioration of air quality thus results into a corresponding increase in health problems, eventually inducing the monitoring of air quality and its prediction as a prime necessity in day-to-day life.
