  NEW DELHI (India CSR):  In today’s business climate, sustainability is no longer a buzzword, it’s a benchmark. Stakeholders, investors, and regulatory bodies are holding companies accountable for their environmental footprint. While many organizations have adopted sustainability goals, few realize that the key to achieving and verifying these goals lies in one of the most practical tools available: environmental audits. From reducing operational risks to supporting transparent  ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance)  reporting, environmental audits serve as a foundational element of any serious sustainability strategy. What Are Environmental Audits? An environmental audit is a systematic, documented evaluation of how well a company’s operations align with environmental laws, internal policies, and best sustainability practices. These audits help organizations identify potential risks, ensure regulatory compliance, and uncover opportunities for improvement. Typ...

  Chemical engineers in the Netherlands have weighed in on the debate over whether to stir chemical reactions or not,   following the publication of a study that suggested mixing doesn’t matter . In response, the team argues that stirring remains critical for reproducibility, selectivity and scalability, particularly in heterogeneous or industrially relevant systems. Recent years have seen stirrer bars scrutinised, with some research raising issues, such as contamination causing false negatives, the bars themselves acting as ‘ phantom catalysts ’ or their position  affecting reproducibility . More recently,  a study  claimed that stirring could be unnecessary for certain solution-phase organic reactions, prompting a flurry of social media posts about whether mixing mattered or not. Zhong-Quan Liu and his colleagues at Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, investigated 329 classic organic reactions from 25 different categories and concluded that stirring didn’t...

  In agriculture, drones distribute seeds or fertilizers with precision, saving both time and money. When combined with sensors and artificial intelligence, they can perform remote sensing, similar to satellites and airplanes, monitor large crops, conduct detailed analyses of soil’s chemical elements, and identify issues such as erosion. One of the most advanced techniques in this field, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), has been enhanced by Radaz, a startup founded in 2017 at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP) and now based in São José dos Campos, São Paulo. “It’s an innovative technology with enormous potential to generate a wide variety of products, serving various market segments,” says electrical engineer Hugo Enrique Hernández Figueroa from UNICAMP’s School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (FEEC), who led the team responsible for developing a radar mounted on a small drone. To achieve this, the team had to miniaturize the radar’s electronic hardware and antennas. The id...
