Research work related to drying and heat pumps:
The Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (TIPC-CAS) was founded in Beijing in June 1999 on the basis of the former Institute of Photographic Chemistry, the former Cryogenic Laboratory, as well as relevant departments from Beijing Research and Development Center of Artificial Crystals and the Institute of Chemistry of CAS.
TIPC focuses on the research of interdisciplinary fields in physics, chemistry, and engineering technology. The research fields include optical functional materials and devices; functional crystals and laser technology; new technologies of cryogenic engineering; photochemistry; biomimetic smart interfacial materials; bio-based materials; medical technical equipment; and degradable plastic materials.
The organisation has profound experience in heat-pump assisted industrial drying processes including e.g., sludge drying of pharmaceutical residue from fermentation or food drying (grain, herbs, tobacco leafes, etc.)
