Overview for Environmental Process Engineering Laboratory (EPEL)
EPEL was founded with intention to concentrate most of the sustainable technologies development at ICPF, e.g. total recycling of PET, recycling of luminophors from TV sets, and verification of thermal desorption technology using microwave radiation. The applied research (gasification of biomass in fluidized bed, synthetic gas production, high temperature gas cleaning, and phytoextraction of heavy metals with consequent energetic utilization of biomass) is balanced with basic research (microwave chemistry, photochemistry, and photocatalysis). This combination makes possible successful cooperation with industry.
