In 2023, a comprehensive monitoring of drinking water quality across Ukraine, was conducted at the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, supported by WaterNet, the first All-Ukrainian professional public organization of specialists on water treatment.
Is it possible to generate electricity from wastewater, organic waste, or biomass? Yes, according to bioenergy and electrochemists. Microbial fuel cells have the potential to create efficient and sustainable energy sources.
For two days, on November 9-10, Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute hosted the VIII International Scientific and Practical Conference "Clean Water. Fundamental, Applied and Industrial Aspects", dedicated to the 125th anniversary of the university.
Military operations cause enormous damage to the Ukrainian environment. In particular, the restoration and modernization of water supply and sewerage in the war-affected areas requires advanced technologies for the treatment and disinfection of drinking and wastewater, wells, etc.
The national forum "Water in Industry and Agriculture during the War and Climate Crisis" was held in Kyiv. The event brought together more than 400 participants from different regions of Ukraine.
This year's forum, held under the slogan "Let's rebuild Ukraine together," was dedicated to plans for the restoration and development of Ukrainian water supply and sewage systems. Special attention was paid to the projects of international humanitarian organizations in the water sector.
KPI students are developing the first Ukrainian ceramic filter that will purify water even from a swamp or infected with bacteria. It will allow defenders at the front to always have clean water.
Kyiv Polytechnic Institute has created a filter that can turn water contaminated with salmonella into drinking water. The material is 100% Ukrainian.
Scientists say that the device cleans water not only from dirt, but also from chemicals and pathogens.
Students of the Department of Information Systems and Technologies of the Faculty of Information Technology are developing a robot with the mentoring support of the faculty's scientific leadership.
