North East Centre for Technology Application and Reach (NECTAR)

NECTAR is an autonomous society, set up under Department of Science & Technology,

Government of India with its headquarter at Shillong, Meghalaya. The Centre will look

at harnessing and leveraging niche frontier technologies available with central scientific

departments and institutions. In order to assist the north eastern region, NECTAR will

be ensuring applications of appropriate technologies for development in the areas of

biodiversity concerns, watershed management, telemedicine, horticulture, infrastructure

planning & development, planning and monitoring, and tele-schooling using cutting

edge MESHNET solutions, employment generation etc. through utilization of localproducts/resources and associated skill development.

The activities of National Mission on Bamboo Applications will be embedded in theNorth East Centre for Technology Applications and Reach (NECTAR)

The National Mission on Bamboo Applications had been tasked with creating the basis for

enlarging the bamboo sector, and with supporting the efforts of the Government of India towards

augmenting economic opportunity, income and employment.

Focused on value addition & commercialisation

Develops, tests & disseminates technologies

Wood substitutes and composites, including boards

of varying descriptions and uses.

They afford an opportunity to establish integrative models

of economic activitylinking the organised and

unorganised sectors and operating at differing levels of

scale, enterprise and technology.

A range of activities are being carried out to develop and

validate technologies, encourage entrepreneurial and

community enterprise, test products and promote their

usage and application.

Bamboo shoots carry the potential of value added

economic activity at the entrepreneurial and

community level through cultivation, processing

and packaging. Working with laboratories, testing

facilities, technology developers, communities and

entrepreneurs, mechanisms and methodologies havebeen developed, to encourage entrepreneurs to take

up the processing of bamboo shoot for the market.

Agro Processing

Critical to the enlargement of the bamboo sector is

the development of machinery, and equipment

suited to Indian bamboo, and of process

technologies for the growing range of products

and applications. Process technologies are being

validated, and converted to techno-economicpackages for use by entrepreneurs.

Despite India's wealth of bamboo resources, a

constraint inhibiting the development of value

added enterprise is that of sourcing adequate raw

material at reasonable prices. In most application

areas there is a need for quality material, defined

by species, maturity, bamboo characteristics,

harvesting technique and post-harvest treatment.Good quality plant material and in sufficient

quantity is a necessary condition if a large scale

programme of high yielding plantation is to be

taken up.

Gasification of bamboo can produce energy anda range of valuable by-products. It reinforces a

commitment to clean and renewable electricity

and thermal energy. It can utilise waste generated

by processing operations, substitute the use of

fossil fuels, and lower operating costs. Promotion

and induction of gasifiers using bamboo andbamboo waste to generate electricity and thermal

energy, especially in off-grid and remote locations

and to meet captive industry and utility needs.
