The Lodz University of Technology (TUL) is one of the biggest technical universities in Poland, with 9 faculties offering 33 fields of study with over 120 specializations. Faculty of Process and Environmental Engineering is a scientific unit that actively promotes the advancement of industrial technologies and environmental projects, their safety and mitigation of environmental impact, with particular emphasis on combining climate change. The Faculty carries out research related to major environmental engineering problems such as water treatment and sewage treatment, reduction of emission of harmful gases and dusts into the atmosphere, waste management, processing and effective use of biomass, energy efficiency of buildings and smart city solutions.
The key persons responsible for the project at TUL are Dariusz Heim, Dominika Knera and Anna Wieprzkowicz. The team works in Laboratory of Building Physics and Energy Systems at the Department of Environmental Engineering. The main areas of expertise are materials engineering, building and urban physics, building energy performance modelling and simulation, architectural engineering. Moreover, other Faculty members: Andrzej Obraniak and Michał Krempski-Smejda, as well as MSc and PhD students, are partially engaged in selected research study during project execution. The TUL team is fully involved from concept development part, through mock-up development, lab-scale and in-situ measurement up to modelling and simulation.
