Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Smritikana Banerjee"

  • Smritikana Banerjee's research primarily focuses on the application of biodegradable natural polymers, specifically tamarind seed kernel powder (TSKP), in environmental engineering, particularly for the flocculation of clay slurries.
  • The 2008 article highlights that TSKP, a cost-effective and starchy biodegradable material, has been utilized for the first time in the context of sedimentation processes, demonstrating promising results.
  • Comparative experiments between TSKP, chemical grade starch, and potash alum reveal that TSKP exhibits effectiveness in flocculating clay slurry, supporting its potential as a sustainable alternative in sedimentation applications.
