UM research projects showcased at MIECF

Three research projects of the University of Macau (UM) are being showcased at the 2024 Macao International Environmental Co-operation Forum & Exhibition (2024 MIECF), attracting great attention from guests and attendees. The UM research teams have also established business connections with several enterprises. The event has effectively enhanced the impact of UM’s research results and promoted the exchange and cooperation between the university and enterprises in the field of environmental protection.

The theme of this year’s MIECF is ‘Reaching the Dual Carbon Goals through Green Transformation’. UM actively responds to the national ‘dual carbon’ goals and is committed to promoting relevant research and development. The university has conducted research on smart energy, energy conservation, environmental protection, and wastewater treatment, and has obtained more than 30 patents in these fields. The research projects showcased at the exhibition include (1) ‘Chip Design for Device-to-Device Bi-Directional Charging’ developed by Lu Yan, professor at the State Key Laboratory of Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI; (2) ‘Applications of Multi-copter Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for Atmospheric Measurements in South China’ developed by Li Yongjie, associate professor in the Faculty of Science and Technology; and (3) ‘Macau BioPeTech Eco-friendly BSG Cat Litter’ developed by an entrepreneurial team of a UM residential college.

澳門大學三項科研成果於“2024年澳門國際環保合作發展論壇及展覽”（2024 MIECF）展出，獲一眾嘉賓和與會者的高度關注，並與多家企業進行有效對接。是次活動有效提高澳大科研成果的影響力，促進澳大與企業在環保領域的交流合作。

今屆MIECF的主題為“推動綠色轉型　力踐雙碳目標”。澳大積極響應國家“雙碳”目標，致力推動雙碳領域的科研發展，開展智慧能源、節能環保、污水處理等研究，相關領域已獲批30多項專利，有效促進技術攻關和成果轉化，並提出切實可行的解決方案，為服務“雙碳”戰略目標與可持續發展作出更大貢獻。

是次展出的澳大科研成果包括：一、澳大模擬與混合信號超大規模集成電路國家重點實驗室路延副教授研發的“電子設備間雙向充電的芯片設計”，該設計採用單顆可重構、高功率密度、小型化的雙向能量傳輸芯片，以實現設備間的高效率快充，方便用戶在緊急或者沒有主電源的情況下，實現電子設備之間的能量共享；二、科技學院黎永杰副教授研發的“多旋翼無人機在大氣垂直測量中的應用”，該應用通過使用多旋翼無人機搭載監測器，在粵港澳大灣區多個地點上空測量污染物，探究污染物的垂直分佈和環境影響，以理解污染物的來源、傳輸和擴散；三、澳大書院創業團隊研發的“澳門BioPeTech環保麥芽貓砂”，使用啤酒行業產生的麥芽渣作為植物纖維基底，研發出天然環保、健康品質的貓砂產品。
