Highlights of the Group:
The Coal, Energy and Environmental Research (CERES) group is one of the excellent research groups working on coal sciences in India and abroad. The group has been engaged in the resource quality assessment and the development of indigenous processes for the rational utilization of NER low-grade coals, since its inception. The group is working on different aspects of coal and environmental issues including national emission inventories for coal-based industries.
Vision and Mission of the Group:
The mission of the groups is to maintain a vibrant research profile that truly captures the needs and changes of the modern society to perform fundamental research along with applied research that caters to the broader economic, societal and environmental development and growth of the country. This is achieved through interdisciplinary research that crosses barriers across chemistry, physics, biology, and materials science.

- Development of new, cheap, and environment-friendly processes for beneficiation of NER high sulfur low-quality coals towards utilization in metallurgical coke industries and power plants.
- Production of high-value carbon materials from low-quality NER coals and their industrial application.
- Optimum utilization of the natural resources in the NE region.
- Stimulate collaborative efforts among industry, universities, government, and professional societies.
- Advance the development and exchange of relevant state of art knowledge and technology.
