V.Jayaprakash
of Quilandy, Kozhikode had the dream of making an oven with minimum emission of
Carbon Dioxide. In the relentless effort
of innovating his dream, he had to sacrifice his right eye, which had to be
removed following its infection. Yet he
spurred on. And now about 90% of the ovens in commercial establishments like restaurants
in Kozhikode are his products.
His recent
innovation is a dry digester to dispose off napkins and diapers. The National Innovation Foundation and NIT
Calicut have come together to promote his product, which has been awarded a patent
recenty.
In the
recently concluded Swasraya Bharat 2025 programme held at NIT Calicut, his
innovation was one among the seven that were selected for final presentation
from 52 entries.
His firm,
JP Tech now operates from Coimbatore.
