Madhav Ghanta, KU doctoral student in chemical and petroleum engineering, has won the prestigious Kenneth G. Hancock Memorial Award in Green Chemistry. He was recognized for his research to develop a nature-friendly way to make ethylene oxide, a key industrial chemical, which could revolutionize production of antifreeze, plastic bottles, sports gear, detergents and paints.

  • great dude,

    

  • Using ethylen is not green!!!

    if you had used ethanol for the production of ethylenoxide, it would be a "totaly" green process.

    but you are depending on the petroleum based ethylen!!!

  • Awesome Madhav, Great Mann! Keep doing what you are doing, definitely you will be a great asset to this world and I am pretty much sure you are the one who don't live the life of average. Be an impact player and live the life of significance by your great work which can serve the community.

  • Nice work Madhav ... Really proud of you
