Improved Action Plan implementation

Action Plan and Gdańsk Tech HRS4R for the period 2022-2025

The corrective and improvement action plan for the implementation of the principles of the Charter and the Code at Gdańsk Tech for the period 2022-2025, taking into account the OTM-R Policy, was adopted in Regulation of the Rector of Gdańsk University of Technology no. 74/2022 of 18 November 2022.

This HRS4R includes 28 actions for the scientific community and Gdańsk Tech employees with a 3-year implementation schedule.

Research

Automation by cognitive artificial vision already advances industries, space, health care, and infrastructure inspection. Many problems still remain complex. Noisy and scarce data challenge neural systems in inferring reliable and useful signals at scale.

Quick and cheap pesticide detection. Cooperation with researchers from India

Researchers from Gdańsk University of Technology and Shiv Nadar University in India, the largest food producer in the world, intend to produce and study cheap, elastic diamond sensors for detection of pesticides in the agricultural and food industry.

In November, a research team from the Department of Metrology and Optoelectronics at the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics, under the supervision of Robert Bogdanowicz, DSc, associate professor at Gdańsk Tech, visited Shiv Nadar University in Uttar Pradesh, one of the leading

Eco-friendly transport and efficient waste utilization

Researchers from Gdańsk University of Technology developed a pyrolysis reactor for industrial and municipal waste processing. It allows safe waste utilization and energy recovery in the form of syngas, and subsequently, recovery of hydrogen with purity level sufficient for application in e.g. urban buses or recovery of biochar for heating purposes. The authors of the technology – Prof. Boguslaw Kusz, PhD and Bartosz Trawinski, PhD, are co-founders of the W2H2 company, which acquired the rights to the commercial use of the technology and its development under a licensing agreement.

A pyrolyzer is a reactor which decomposes complex hydrocarbon materials into simple elements and compounds in an anaerobic annealing process at high temperatures. Pyrolysis of waste, using the technology developed at Gdańsk Tech, results in production of syngas which contains, among others, methane, carbon monoxide and a very large amount of hydrogen.
