India is considering blending LPG with Dimethyl Ether (DME) to cut imports by 20%, a move described by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research as sustainable and eco-friendly amidst an energy crisis.

Amid LPG shortages, India's CSIR-NCL has developed a homegrown Dimethyl Ether (DME) technology, promising a cleaner alternative fuel and aiming for industrial-scale production.

Researchers at BITS Pilani have successfully developed a method for converting carbon dioxide into Dimethyl Ether (DME), which can be used in cylinders as a replacement for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG).

India is exploring Dimethyl Ether (DME) technology as a new fuel source, which could significantly help the nation reduce its reliance on imported Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG).
