Hyderabad, July 15 (UNI) Hitex, Hyderabad's premier exhibition centre, hosted two insightful panel discussions on Bio-Energy and Industrial Waste Management here today as a curtain-raiser to two major industrial expos scheduled next month.
These panel discussions were held in anticipation of the India Process Expo & Conference (IPEC) and the Eco Sustain Expo, both set to take place at Hitex here from August 22–24.
Speaking after unveiling a poster highlighting these upcoming expos here, , Mr. TG Srikanth, Business Head, Hitex, said, "The India Process Expo & Conference and Eco Sustain Expo provide an excellent platform to showcase innovations in manufacturing and sustainable technologies. These events encourage knowledge exchange, collaboration, and business growth for industries and solution providers alike."
The Eco Sustain Expo is dedicated to promoting sustainable manufacturing practices and eco-friendly technologies, aligning with the global shift towards greener industry standards.
The two panel discussions — 'Energising Change: New Wave in Bio-Energy', and 'Industrial Issues and Solutions: Managing Waste' — were moderated by Mr. Srinivas Kasulla, Director, Arka Brenstech.
Mr. Kasulla emphasised the rising importance of bioenergy, stating, "Bioenergy is gaining global momentum due to its potential to reduce fossil fuel dependence and mitigate climate change. We are seeing increasing investments in biomass power, biogas, and advanced biofuels, particularly in the transport sector."
He also highlighted emerging trends such as Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), a technology with the potential to deliver net-negative emissions.
In the session on industrial waste management, panellists discussed pressing challenges including high waste volume, hazardous material handling, infrastructure gaps, and regulatory bottlenecks.
However, they also pointed out significant opportunities in areas like waste-to-energy, smart recycling, AI-driven waste tracking, and circular economy models that can turn waste into wealth.
The event served as a thought-provoking prelude to the forthcoming expos, setting the tone for innovation, sustainability, and industry transformation.
