The programme was probably held at the Chemistry Lecture Theatre. This assumption has been made based on the fact that there is a periodic table in the room. We are yet to find the exact date and year of the event. Brief details of the event are written on the envelope in which the negatives of this album are preserved. The writing says “IIT Symposium. SI metric System”. It is likely that the event took place during Prof. R. G. Narayanamurthi’s tenure as Director of the Institute (1977-1979). A file from the Archives of IIT Madras, documenting the Director’s speeches and messages (1977 to…

This is a liquid extraction unit from the Transfer Operations laboratory of the Chemical Engineering department, a gift from Germany in the institute's early days. Behind it rises a distillation column, another hallmark of chemical engineering practice. In today’s context, the cost of operating such units has become prohibitive, and they are preserved mainly for demonstration purposes. Together, they represent the legacy of hands-on learning and the international collaborations that enriched the institute’s formative years. Information provided by Prof. Arcot R. Balakrishnan […
