National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) and the National Metal and Materials Research Center (MTEC) have launched the “Taiwan-Thailand Bilateral Workshop on Water-Energy Nexus and Net Zero Emission” in MTEC on February 28, 2023. A total of more than 13 scholars from Taiwan, Thailand, and Malaysia have attended this Workshop to share the research results and experience in the areas of sustainable agriculture, environment and health, and functional composites, and their possible applications to water-energy nexus and net zero emission. After the workshop, MTEC has also arranged lab tours to visit 4 laboratories with different research themes. In addition, the molecularly-imprinted polymer-based electrochemical sensing technology for the detection of organophosphorus pesticides in an aqueous solution has also been demonstrated.
