Description:
In the field of environmental and chemical engineering, the project will generally focus on technologies that can be used for the pre-treatment and purification of process, waste and municipal waters using, for example, pressure membrane processes, precipitation processes, indirect electrochemical oxidation, or a combination of ion exchange, sorption and chemical degradation, and methods of analytical evaluation of the species and concentration of contaminating substances and methods of preparation and subsequent analysis of samples, or the study of ecotoxicity, which concerns new materials and substances already present in the environment, and also for the purpose of verifying the effectiveness of decontamination processes. Research in the field of sustainable process operations management will be focused on the possibilities of increasing the resilience and sustainability of enterprises in a highly competitive business environment in the aspects of communication, reporting, accounting, investing, building relationships across the value chain, adopting circular economy principles for products and packaging in consumer chemistry. The area of sustainability of process production will be mapped and analysed in the context of ESG requirements and adaptation and mitigation measures due to climate change.
