NUST Researcher secured funding from HEC to develop Piezoelectric Material in Pakistan

In Pakistan, there has been massive imports of electrical devices, piezoelectric actuators, car buzzers, and sensors to be used for several applications as they are not produced locally and these imports have burdened the national exchequer. Hence, we are in dire need of producing the piezoelectric powder in lab/pilot-scale locally and at affordable price in…

NUST Researcher Developed Aquaponics: A Machine Learning based Organic Production System

Pakistan is currently facing dire problems which requires serious attention such as the rapid increase in population i.e., 2% rise per year, with an estimate of 340 Million by 2050, 58% food insecurity, 1st in water shortage index among lower-middle income countries, drought in barani areas and a decrease in agricultural land use per capita….

Water Remediation Using Polymeric Membranes Modified with MOF

Oil / Water pollution is increasing unprecedented due to surging release from industrial spills, petrochemical effluent, and domestic discharge. Water is the driving force of life, but water pollution has posed an immense threat to human health, aquatic life, and economic development. Oil/water pollution is increasing unprecedented due to surging release from industrial spills, petrochemical…

NUST Researchers Designed First Home-Grown Microprocessor
