Mukul da,
>But he is typical of Indian Non-Expertize.
Don't know anything about RK Pachauri. But what is a typical "Indian
Non-Expertize"?
Does that include us NRAs/NRIs - after all, most of us did come from a
Gauhati/Dibrugarh Medical College, IIT, IIM, Cotton/GU, or schools named after
saints.
And what about all those in India itself - that produce, desgn aircrafts,
trains, other machinery etc. T
And does that EXCLUDE select people from Assam?
Frankly, the way you sound, it looks like India is full of idiots! :)

" We were told that Delhi's Consultant TERI did not think our system will
work--and they have their own." - It is hard for me to understand how you
could give up so easily, knowing you. If you have repeatable performace results
of your invention and they are better than the competitors', you win on the
technical side. If your price is better or equal to the other guy you win on
the commercial side. Another caveat normally is "Proven Technology". If yours
is not a proven technology, can't you challenge Assam Govt. to let you install
one of your units on a pilot run? Or is it that they will not talk to you
unless you are in the good old boys' network?
Who is TERI by the way? Are they offering a proven technology from an
international pollution reduction company? Surface pollution in oil fields and
refineries has been greatly reduced in USA by using proven standard technology
but electro endosmosis process is not a front runner.

Right. There is no more fish/turtle/porpoise(Xihoo) left in the main stream
of the Brahmaputra all the way to sea due to following :
· One drop of Oily waste spreads to an invisible film spreading
1km.sq.blocking all Oxygen.
· Digboi, Dulijan, Oilfields drilling wastes ,refineries , papermills
- totally disgorge daily 1000 m.cu.(Ton) if not more. That is =
10,000,000,000,000 drops> will film up that many km.sq ( many times all
Brahmaputra) to make Planktons survive in all Brahmaputra IMPOSSIBLE without
Oxygen-thus blocked . No Plankton-No fish-No Xihoo-simply.
· We are not yet considering the open Sewer that is
Bharaloo,Bhogdoi,Bhareli. These carry Chemicals apart from fecals
One has to seriously look at the nature of effluents, the stock emitted over
the last few decades and their long term impact . Who Will? The Govt .
Pollution Control Board Chief only collects Crores of Hush-Money from these
culprits.
The state ought to institute an official scientific study(ALL ARE IN THE Hush
Hush payroll!!) immediately, calculate damages, impose a heavy pollution tax
with retrospective effect on these refineries and use this for abatement of the
stock of pulltants to the extent feasible (I am not sure how much can be done).
Yours Truly+ some concerned Techies Demonstrated Free To authorities at
Digboi,Duliajan, Jagiroad,Noonmati how to totally remove all Oily discharge to
open Bodies-in 2004-2005. After Demonstrating Free we wanted orders . We were
told that Delhi's Consultant TERI did not think our system will work--and they
have their own. They executed--but it became worse. Now TERI has been given all
help by Assam Govt like to IIT Etc to setup shop in Assam and Direct all future
measures --like Yamuna( Non )Cleanup in Delhi.Also, individual citizen groups
could file public interest law suits seeking compensation from these public
sector giants. ( I tried inducing the leading NGO Aranyak-kept quiet. No money
there) If the federal government ( India ain't no Federal) is unwilling to
pay up with retrospective effect, the state could use this (Dare Not)
outstanding dues to central government owned PSUs such as the electricity
generating units.Of course, considering the meagre royalties that are paid to
the state for the crude itself, it is foolhardy to hope for anything at all.
Thanks for Spelling out 1 small reason why we need to be Sovereign-to save
Assam/ To save India .
