We have obtained three standard projects from the Czech Science Foundation (GACR) as the primary recipients:
1) Removal of pollutants from industrial gases by new task-specific poly-ionic liquid membranes: experiments and modelling (24-10288S, P106), project investigator is Doc. Ing. Pavel Izák, Ph.D., DSc. from the Research Group of Membrane Separations, co-investigator is Prof. Ing. Karel Friess, Ph.D. from UCT Prague. The project aims to research new effective separation membranes based on poly-ion liquid materials for separating CO2, SO2, and water vapor from the air, and modeling the separation process using molecular dynamics is part of the project.
2) Critical study on ground-based vs tall tower aerosol measurements: effect of boundary layer (24-10768S, P109), project investigator is Dr. Ing. Vladimír Ždímal from the Research Group of Aerosols Chemistry and Physics, co-investigator is RNDr. Roman Prokeš, Ph.D. from CzechGlobe – Global Change Research Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences (GCRI). The project aims to provide important insights into the representativeness of conventional, ground-based measurements for atmospheric aerosol properties within and above the planetary boundary layer, allowing for the re-evaluation of previous long-term sampling strategies used worldwide.
3) Preparation of (poly)aromatic compounds containing phosphinine ring (24-11312S, P207), project investigator is Dr. Ing. Vladimír Církva from the Research Group of Advanced Materials and Organic Synthesis. The project aims to optimize the synthesis of differently substituted phosphanaphthalenes and the preparation of phosphorus polyaromatics based on phenacene, helicene, and nanographene, and to compare the physicochemical properties of the prepared substances with their carbon analogs containing a phosphinine ring.
