Establishment of a National Multidisciplinary Laboratory for Climate Change (RRF-2.3.1-21-2022-00014)

Project description:

The Climate Change National Laboratory program encompasses 7 consortium partners and several subprojects. In addition to studying factors causing climate change and their impacts on nature, economic systems, and society, it conducts research and development activities in the field of technological, economic, and social adaptation. The professional achievements sought during its operation, while delivering concrete economic and social benefits for Hungary in terms of preparing for the consequences of climate change and mitigating its impacts, will significantly strengthen the professional collaboration among participating organizations. Furthermore, they will enhance the National Laboratory’s international integration, scientific recognition, and capacity to generate international funding, bolstering its innovation potential. The main goal of the sub-project related to Soós Ernő Research and Development Center is creating a Water 4.0 framework-supervised water treatment and monitoring systems: a sensorized environment necessary for assessing water qualities in an industrial setting, supporting proper professional planning, and making appropriate cleaning technology recommendations.
