Description:
The research undertaken in the Sustainable Technologies Group makes use of a highly interdisciplinary approach to providing effective solutions to environmental problems. We make use of the life cycle framework in most of the projects. Some of the main issues addressed in our recent and current work are:
- Energy and transportation policy
- Cleaner production, pollution prevention and industrial ecology
- Evaluation of alternative energy sources
- Industrial water conservation
- Green supply chains
The Sustainable Technology Research Group has laboratory and office facilities equipped with PC’s and software for LCA and related computing applications. These tools include commercially available software, freeware and computer codes developed in-house for our own purposes. The group consists of research staff, including colleagues from institutions with which we have long-standing research collaboration, and research students from the Philippines and overseas.
Major Projects Undertaken:
Postgraduate and Industrial Training in Sustainable Technology.An International Collaboration with University of Portsmouth, Royal Institute of Technology, Universiti Teknoligi Malaysia and Xavier University, Phil. under the Asia-Link Programme.
