Research Centres<br />
With different objectives and targets, the Department aims at all-rounded research efforts that could provide possible<br />
solutions towards a better living for the human race. In order to establish better synergy in research, four research areas<br />
and one niche area where a critical mass of experts is available in each have been identified.<br />
Research Centre for<br />
Combustion &<br />

Research Centre for Combustion and Pollution Control (CPC)<br />
Currently, the CPC Research Centre is operated smoothly with collaborative effort from the key members: Prof. CW<br />
Leung, Prof. WF Leung, Prof. CS Cheung, Dr. TL Chan and Dr. P Zhang, to deal with combustion-led air pollution<br />
problems. We are one of the leading research groups in the areas of flames and combustion, alternative fuels, internal<br />
combustion engine emissions and nano-technology for air pollution control. Some of the ongoing research projects are<br />
shown below. Because of our excellent efforts in serving the industry, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU)<br />
is recognized to be one of the leading institutions in dealing with combustion-led air pollution problems in Hong Kong<br />
and the Pearl River Delta region. The CPC Research Centre has made significant contribution to the development<br />
of new curriculum and new subjects for the Department/University, and has provided many very good research and<br />
undergraduate projects for our students. Excellent research outputs: patents, book chapters, journal publications and<br />
conference presentations are made by the key members of the Research Centre to enhance the image of PolyU.<br />
