đ Bridging the Gap Between Academic Intent and Innovation Outcomes
Academic institutions across India are increasingly aware of the need for innovationâdriven by rankings, funding schemes, and entrepreneurship initiatives. Yet, beyond the top-tier institutes, many face constraints: lack of advanced equipment, limited hands-on exposure, and routine project formats that seldom translate into real outcomes. Faculty, though central to this change, often lack the tools and support to guide students toward industry-relevant, research-driven innovation.
Emerging and industry-adopted techniquesâlike membrane filtration for liquid separations, ultrasonication for extraction, adsorption-based purification, or hybrid systems combining new and conventional methodsâoffer immense potential. These methods align with goals in sustainability, circular economy, and applied research. Thatâs where i2PINN steps inâwith a practical, scalable model to help institutes work on emerging technologies with industry relevance, research depth, and intellectual property potential.
đĄ Why Membrane Technology?
Membrane Separation Technology (MST) involves techniques such as Microfiltration, Ultrafiltration, Nanofiltration, Reverse Osmosis, Pervaporation, Forward Osmosis, and Membrane Distillation.
MST can be deployed as a standalone process or integrated with conventional technologies such as adsorption, ion exchange, and activated carbon.
Membrane technology is a proven, industry-adopted platform used in:
Clarification, cold sterilization & impurity removal
Concentration, purification & recovery of valuable compounds
Wastewater & effluent treatment
Applications in pharma, biotech, food, traditional medicine, chemicals & more
Despite its cross-disciplinary value, membrane technology is often missing from institute labs. i2PINN aims to change thatâby making it accessible, affordable, and adaptable for real academic use.
