The document announces a workshop on microbiology in the development of sustainable technologies hosted by the Institute for Applied Environmental Biotechnology Innovation. The institute was created to carry out research, teaching, and training at the interface of biotechnology and engineering to inspire new global innovations for a greener world. The workshop will highlight how indigenous microbes provide potential sustainable technologies for extracting metals from low-grade ores as economic development increases demand for metals while depletion occurs from extensive past mining of high-grade ores.

- 1. WELCOME TO THE Workshop On MICROBIOLOGY IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIES, (MDST-2015) INSTITUTE FOR APPLIED ENVIRONMENTAL BIOTECHNOLOGY INNOVATION
- 2. Purpose Statement of the Institute • The Institute has been created by infusion of interdisciplinary expertise and skills to carryout challenging R&D programme, teaching and training at the interface of biotechnology and engineering. • This institute’s objective is to stand in this gap and inspire new global innovations towards a greener world
- 3. Seminars Workshops Short-term courses Editing-aid for publications Awareness Programmes Project funding from private and Govt ACTIVITIES
- 4. • With the economic development, the demand for various metals are on the rise. • However, due to extensive mining and extraction in these past years, there is depletion of high-grade ores. • Hence, there exists a look-out for alternative sustainable technologies to extract metals from low- grade ores. • The intervention of indigenous microbes have reported to provide potential extraction methods. • Hence, through this workshop, we would like to enlighten and motivate young minds with the understanding of mineral industry and the need for sustainable technologies Highlight of the Workshop MDST-2015
