Physicists from Lodz University of Technology are working on an innovative optical water vapour analyser that will significantly reduce energy consumption and will be much cheaper than similar solutions currently available on the market. Research will be conducted jointly with researchers from Wrocław University of Science and Technology and the Technical University of Berlin. The project will be implemented by companies from Poland and Germany.

Scientists from the Institute Polymer and Dye Technology, TUL, participate in a unique, international project. – For the first time we will combine, in an innovative strategy, three individually important concepts used in preparation of dressing materials, i.e. intelligent polymers reacting to external stimuli, active nanolayers and peptides released from a new composite material, as a last option of anti- infective protection against resistant pathogens- informs Assoc. Prof. Eng. Joanna Pietrasik, TUL Prof at the Faculty of Chemistry and the project leader.

A team of researchers from Poland and the Czech Republic is going to optimize a new technology to capture carbon dioxide from exhaust gases discharged into the atmosphere. The National Science Centre has allocated over 1.7 million PLN from the OPUS + LAP program for the research.

The National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA) has announced a list of 176 winners of the 4th edition of the Bekker internship and research programme. Among the scholarship holders is Dr Eng. Szymon Szufa from the Faculty of Process and Environmental Engineering (WIPOŚ) of Lodz University of Technology.

At the end of December 2021, the Rector of Lodz University of Technology, Prof. Krzysztof Jóźwik, signed the Gender Equality Plan at Lodz University of Technology. The document provides for ensuring equality, in line with the principles of the European Charter for Researchers, and is the result of efforts by the university authorities to raise awareness of the importance of equality issues.

Researchers from Lodz University of Technology participate in the European FLEXIndustries consortium, which brings together 36 international institutions. Experts from the Institute of Turbomachinery Lodz University of Technology and the K-FLEX Lodz - Uniejów company are one of the Polish members.

Researchers from Lodz University of Technology participate in the European FLEXIndustries consortium. Under the Horizon Europe project over EUR 17 million will be allocated for innovative solutions supporting smart energy transformation in large industrial plants.

The year 2021coming to its end brought many successes and unique events to Lodz University of Technology, often of a remote nature. Most competitions, open days and events were still held online. Despite pandemic restrictions, we sometimes managed to meet face-to-face at university events, which after a long period of not seeing each other made everyone very happy. Our researchers and students have won numerous awards and medals for their scientific and sporting achievements. We invite you to a quick review of the most important successes and events of Lodz University of Technology.

Researchers from the Faculty of Process and Environmental Engineering at Lodz University of Technology in cooperation with Otto-von-Guericke Universität Magdeburg (OVGU) will conduct research on a new spray drying technology. For this purpose, they have received nearly one million PLN from the National Science Centre from the OPUS + LAP programme.

The ancients approached music as a science. Pythagoras and his students believed that the sound proportions reflected the harmony of the cosmos. The Choir of Lodz University of Technology knows something about this, because its members combine the scientific and artistic minds in one. An example is Beata Rurarz, the president of the Choir, who does her doctorate with flying colours, because without music she cannot even imagine counting. Ludwig van Beethoven said: “It doesn't matter if you play a wrong note. Playing without passion is unforgivable! ”. Fortunately, our choristers do not lack passion!
