The Institute of Theoretic and Applied Chemistry conducts multisectoral research in advanced and efficient chemical processing of wood, peat, pine needles, berries and other plant products. (http://www.narfu.ru/itph/sciens/)
The size of research funding allocated to the institute reaches as high as 15 million RUR annually. Every tenth student engaged in scientific work earns a salary in addition to his or her scholarship. The University Development Program enables the purchase of modern analytical and scientific equipment costing more that 300 million RUR and upgraded the level of the research carried out. The 2011 research budget amounted to about 35 million RUR.
The institute is actively cooperating with Russia’s large-scale innovative enterprises to carry out joint research and training of highly qualified professionals. Offices of the Department of Pulp and Paper Technology are established at several pulp and paper mills:
- JSC Arkhangelsk Paper Pulp Mill and
- Suhonsky PPM LLC.
To enhance scientific and engineering training for students in chemical technology, the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Chemistry has opened a branch of the department of wood-chemical production at the research and production center «KhimInvest» (based in Nizhniy Novgorod). NArFU will be training personnel for «KhimInvest», while experts from Nizhniy Novgorod will be taking part in the development of on-site training programs. In addition, the university and «KhimInvest» plan to implement joint scientific, technological and test engineering activities and projects.
The Institute is also implementing an agreement with Moscow State University and Institute of Ecological Problems of the North (RAS Ural Branch) for the establishment of inter-university academic department. Cooperation agreement was also signed with St. Petersburg State Technological University of Plant Polymers for joint research in the production of mineral fiber based paperlike composites.
The employees at Institute of Theoretical and Applied Chemistry — lecturers and PhD students — are currently engaged in the project: «Implementing by Shared Scientific Equipment Center „Arktika“ of Exploratory Research in the Field of Monitoring Rocket Fuel Toxic components in Natural Environment». Implemented by the Shared Scientific Equipment Center «Arktika», the project has been approved 28 million RUR funding (including 11.350 million for 2012).
The project is financed within the Federal Target Program: «2007-2012 Priority Research and Development in Russia’s Scientific and Engineering Complex.»
