In the research of the Sustainable Technologies group, the focus is on measures that develop the added value of natural resources, such as further processing of lignin and cellulose, sustainable mining, uptake of resources from waste waters and other industrial wastes, and new energy applications, and the study of phenomena affecting product properties and service life. The group’s central activity is the production and development of content for the Sustainable Technologies graduate engineer training program.

The group’s linked experts from the Department of Computer Science produce educational content in the fields of industrial production, robotics, data analysis, computer systems, visualization techniques and information and communication technology (ICT).
