Detailed data on research infrastructure/laboratory
- Description and data on the research infrastructure/laboratory:
The laboratory is equipped with a MERCI G laboratory fume hood. The research infrastructure located in the laboratory is used to ensure the educational process of students of the 1st to 3rd degree of higher education and for research purposes. In the educational process, the laboratory is used directly for teaching and for conducting experiments as part of the processing of final theses. The laboratory infrastructure is used mainly for dividing, splitting, determining the size of biomass particles, determining its physical and energy (fire and thermal) properties. While working in the laboratory, the student will acquire working skills for the correct operation of equipment and the implementation of analyses in accordance with standardized procedures and under standardized conditions.
