Description:
Processing of leather is related with significant pollution of environment by solid and liquid wastes. The work is devoted for an establishment of possibilities of utilization or recycle of wastes of leather industry. The properties of products obtained from the wastes would be established as well.

Description:
Enzymes have an important role in leather manufacture and the use of biocatalysts is now considered to be state-of-the-art for the processing of animals skins and hides. The main objective of the research is to assess applicability of new enzymes in conformity with an effect on hide/skin properties change.

Description:

Cleanrooms are closed spaces with precise control of temperature, humidity, pressure, and the concentration of airborne particles. ISO 14644-1 standard describes 9 cleanroom classes based on the particle concetration. The cleanroom in "Santaka" valley is class ISO5, which means that there are <3520 particles of size >0,5 um per 1 m3 of air inside it. Standards also describe the rules for tool use, personnel protective garments and cleaning procedures to ensure the control of all the relevant ambient conditions. Such strict requirements result in a much higher device yield, especially those with functional elements on the order of micrometers or even nanometers.

Access to cleanroom requires passing a cleanroom introduction and chemical safety courses, as well as relevant tool training.
