Association of Environmental Analytical Chemistry of India (AEACI ) was founded on 30th November, 2010 during a meeting held at Analytical Chemistry Division (ACD) in Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), Trombay, Mumbai to provide a common platform to all the Indian scientists and scholars working in the field of Analytical & Environmental Chemistry within the country from various Universities or Institutes or Industries. AEACI is a non-profit-making organization with its Head-Quarters at Analytical Chemistry Division, BARC, Mumbai. AEACI aims to promote the analytical environmental sciences and technology in India, to disseminate scientific and technological knowledge within the country and to advance both national and international cooperation (in particular south Asians countries) in the area of analytical and environmental Chemistry. The motivation to commence a national forum like AEACI came from the discussion in the School of Analytical Chemistry held at BARC, Mumbai during November 19th to 26th November in 2011. Since its inception, the Association has evolved magnificently to represent a truly National Organization and at present, it comprises about 155 life-members from different parts of India. The Executive committee of AEACI , which manages all the activities of AEACI, is being elected triennially by the members of AEACI. The scientific and technological fora provided by AEACI comprise the following.
