3. Intercultural Communication 2 credits

Course Description

In this globalization era, science and technological advancements require and

emphasize the importance of quality interpersonal communication. Intercultural

communication skills are becoming perhaps more important than ever before in this

time of an increasingly diverse workforce and extensive travel for education, business

and leisure, which has resulted in improved interpersonal communication skills.

This course addresses each of those areas that require awareness and mindfulness

in intercultural interactions. Solidly grounded in cutting edge academic research, the

course begins with a background of intercultural communication, which includes

definitions and key terminologies of and reasons for intercultural communication.

We then move to an exploration of culture-based values that play a significant role in

all intercultural interactions. From there, this course moves to examine barriers to

successful intercultural communication, including culture shock and lack of

awareness of verbal communication tendencies and styles. Nonverbal

communication also plays a key role in developing intercultural communication


flexibility, and is discussed as well. A discussion of challenges in intercultural

communication aims to highlight ways to improve communication across cultures; in

understanding the obstacles, the way to quality communication is cleared. Conflict

and dispute resolution is also a key component of intercultural communication, and

is therefore also covered in this course. The idea of a global identity and

communicating with cross-cultural audiences follows the conflict lesson. The course

closes with considerations of Chinese culture and also the importance of improving

intercultural communication competence in business context.

Packed with useful information, knowledge, considerations and insights, this

course aims to provide students with the tools they need to improve their

intercultural communication flexibility and skills, permitting them to gain more

R4. Advanced Oxidation Methods for Wastewater

Treatment

Project Leader: Prof. Hongyong Xie



Tel: +86-21-50215021-8325

There is a growing concern about the occurrence of organic pollutants in waters

and water supply. These so-called emerging organic contaminants are continuously

released into the environment as a result of their use in industry, medical care,

agriculture, consumer goods and household activity. These compounds can be,

amongst others, pharmaceuticals, personal care products, pesticides, endocrine

disruptors, surfactants, fire retardants, fuel additives. Moreover, new compounds are

continuously being developed and manufactured, and therefore released into the

environment. These developments give rise to higher demands of water treatment

technology to remove all the pollutants found in water sources.

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are often used as an effective barrier against

organic pollutants, as the process produces hydroxyl (OH) radical reactions ensures

the removal of a wide range of compounds. In this project, combination of UV

photolysis and hydroxyl (OH) radical reactions is examined for various kinds of

wastewaters, to study the effectives of AOPs in wastewater treatment.

Project Leader: Dr. Zhguo Sun



Tel: +86-21-50215021-8500

Humic acid (HA) is a natural adsorbent and has special physical and chemical

characteristics that form the foundation of disposal of pollutants from a combustor

flue gas. HA, that occurs widely in soil, water, and low–rank coals, has already been

proposed as a candidate which can be used as a sorbent for air pollution control. Flue

gas desulfurization and denitrification (FGDD) process employed HA seems like a

promising way. It is a better choice using HA–Na as a desulfurization additive to

improve wet limestone scrubbers or other FGDD processes.

In this project, A high performance absorbent of HA-based for flue gas

denitrification (DeNOx) and Carbon capture and storage (CCS) was prepared. The

absorbent is characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), Fourier transform

infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X–ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron

microscope (SEM). It’s activity on removing NOx and CO2 was investigated in a self–

designed reactor. The reacting mechanism was thoroughly required to be investigated

in this project.

applications of LIBs in portable electronics, it is evident that an ocean of spent LIBs

will be produced after the ~1-3 years lifetime service of the LIBs. If the spent LIBs

are simply disposed, a serious environmental concern of soil contamination would be

caused by the leaked organic electrolytes as well as toxic metals (Co, Li, Cu, Mn, Ni,

etc.) contained in the LIBs. Furthermore, the spent LIBs can be used to recover

valuable metals (Co, Li, Mn, Ni, etc.) or their compounds. For instance, lithium cobalt

oxide (LiCoO2), a shared cathode active material for commercial LIBs, accounts for

27.5 wt% in a quintessential lithium-ion secondary rechargeable battery, with a metal

content of 5-20 wt% Co and 5-7 wt% Li. Therefore, the recovery of the valuable

metals, especially Co and Li from the spent LIBs, is considered to be highly desirable.

In this project, effective and noble approaches to recover the valuable metals

required to be investigated, which are more favorable, higher efficiency, and lower

costs.

Specific Introduction

Reduction leaching process. This direction of research was positively

investigated by the research group. Some organic acids were used to serve as

reductants, which were cheap, and could easily be obtained. The leaching efficiency

of cobalt has reached to nearly 100%.

Mechanochemical process. Associate professor Yaoguang Guo opened a new

field in the recovery of spent LIBs via mechanochemical approach. In the proposed

process, lithium cobalt oxide (obtained from spent LIBs) was firstly co-grinded with

various additives in a hermetic ball milling system. Co and Li could be easily


recovered by the subsequent leaching procedure. This process opened a new pretreat

method for Li-ion batteries recycling and provide an alternative to the enterprise.

other high-tech fields due to versatile chemical and physical properties. The separation and

recovery technology of indium from associated mineral smelting ash, slag and other by-products is

chemical method, including the hot acid leaching-jarosite process and the hot acid leaching-

goethite process. However, this technology is complex and high-costs. Meanwhile, indium

trichloride (InCl3) is a kind of basic raw materials for ITO (SnO2: In2O3=1:9) films, III-V group

semiconductor materials, organoindium compounds, etc. 75% of indium around the world are

used in the production of ITO target, which is applied to the liquid crystal display (LCD). At

present, with the generation of a large number of waste LCD, there is a dire need of the recovery

method of indium. Chlorinated metallurgy is a recovery method of valuable metals from complex

multiphase metallic ore or low grade ore by the utilization of the low boiling point and high

volatility of metal chloride. But there is little research on its theory. Therefore, a basic theory

research on carbochlorination reaction metallurgical is necessary.

In this project, an organic-inorganic complex system has been established in order to analyze

the predominance area diagram, dynamic and thermodynamic process of indium recovery by

carbochlorination reaction. The mechanism of synergetic chlorination reaction of PVC and waste

LCD can be deduced through this system. The gas phase flow of main chloride products (InCl3,

FeCl3, AlCl3) will be studied and predicted.

Workpiece sorting is a very important part in industrial production. In the

traditional production line, workpiece sorting were done by workers, which not only

brought about the low sorting efficiency, but also may affect the quality of the product

or endanger the life and health of workers. On the modern production line, the

workpiece sorting completed by industrial robots.

In this project, a robot sorting experiment system based on machine vision is

constructed. The system is composed of a robot, a PC, a camera, an image acquisition

card, a conveyor belt and a self sorting control software. The working principle and

working process of this system is: when the target object come into the sorting

operation area, the camera automatically gets the image of target object, then the

software is used to analyze the collected images to identify the object’s classification

information and its coordinate. After the robot gets the coordinates of the target

object , the target will be picked up to specified destinations. A typical "single target

tracking - grab - handling" process in production line will be presented in this project.
