Polissya National University: scientific activity, strong base, real experience
Member of the Bioenergy Association of Ukraine, Polissya National University, which trains highly qualified specialists and has a strong material and technical base.
Polissya National University and the Faculty of Engineering and Energy train candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy according to the educational and scientific program “Industrial Engineering”.
The uniqueness of the program is that applicants can combine scientific work with practical activities, in particular in the field of technical bioenergy. The peculiarity of the program is its focus on the analytical and practical organization of research and educational process.
Training of applicants is performed in the following areas:
- Substantiation of parameters and process of work of the gas-generating power module adapted to raw materials of a vegetable origin;
- Substantiation of parameters of equipment and processes of conversion of biomass of agricultural origin in closed chambers;
- Mechanical and technological substantiation of mechanized processes of organic production;
- Substantiation of parameters of equipment for production of diesel NGO-biofuel in agricultural enterprises, etc.
In the process of scientific research, applicants develop and improve photovoltaic systems; heating systems based on solid fuel boilers; systems for the use of straw and shredded wood for thermal and energy needs, systems for the production and use of diesel biofuels and biooil, systems for the production and use of biogas and generator gas, systems and complexes of environmentally safe tillage, aquaculture systems and others.
The action-oriented approach contributes to the acquisition of experience for further implementation of their own research.
