Research on utilizing rice husk by-products to manufacture materials to treat some heavy metals in industrial park wastewater
In order to select organizations and individuals to preside over city-level science and technology tasks on the science and technology project "Research on utilizing rice husk by-products to manufacture materials to treat some heavy metals in industrial park wastewater", Can Tho City Department of Science and Technology had a Council meeting in the afternoon of January 29, 2024.

Overview of the meeting
The Council was presided by Dr. Ngo Anh Tin - Director of Can Tho City Department of Science and Technology. Associate Professor. The study is carried by PhD. Lam Van Tan. Nguyen Tat Thanh University, Ho Chi Minh City is an implementing unit.
The project aims to successfully synthesize materials from rice husk by-products that can effectively treat at least 03 heavy metals in industrial park wastewater to meet TCVN 40:2011/BTNMT (Column A).
