Ogura Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab studies how to recycle energy through the heat of chemical reactions and how to design energy-saving living environments.
AboutAbout the lab
Putting wasted heat to use again.
The Ogura Lab studies the framework of a sustainable society that addresses resource, energy, and environmental problems.
Specifically, it studies chemical heat pumps, which recycle heat using the energy of chemical reactions.
Focusing on joint research among industry, government, and academia, the lab investigates a variety of high-efficiency thermal environment systems with the aim of putting them into practical use.
Working with people from many fields inside and outside the university, the lab designs comfortable, energy-saving living environments.
Key terms
- Chemical heat pump
- A device that stores heat and changes its temperature using the heat absorbed and released by chemical reactions.
- Industry–government–academia collaboration
- Companies (industry), national and local governments (government), and universities (academia) working together on research and development.
- Fluorocarbons (CFCs)
- Substances that have been used as refrigerants in refrigerators and air conditioners. They destroy the ozone layer and also contribute to global warming.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to build a sustainable society that responds to resource, energy, and environmental problems. From the standpoint of environmental and energy chemical engineering, it studies next-generation material and energy recycling systems and the energy environment of the places where people live.
