Fudan sets new scientific standards
Serving the BRI
Taking the opportunity to serve the Belt and Road Initiative, Fudan has also continued to promote the quality and efficiency of cooperation with counterparts in developing countries, and promotes the creation of platforms such as the Fudan-Latin America University Consortium, and the BRICS Universities League.
Some Fudan-developed technologies are also helping businesses overseas to operate better. In the Vinda Malaysia factory, a digital cleaner production platform with high levels of compatibility and strong data fusion capabilities was developed between January and September in 2023. It was the work of a joint team of several Chinese institutions led by the Department of Environmental Science and Engineering of Fudan University.
"The platform accumulated more than 5 million pieces of data during the demonstration, and the standards compiled by our team provide guidance on carbon neutrality practices and cleaner production and maintenance management," says Wang Yutao, leader on the team and a professor from the department.
"The standards conform to the advanced international level of cleaner production technology, and have important reference value and promotional prospects for improving cleaner production levels in the paper industry in BRI countries and regions," says Dominic Foo of the University of Nottingham Malaysia, who is also a Fellow of Academy of Sciences Malaysia.
