Novel Technology and Products: Fluidized Bed Incineration and Energy Recovery for Waste Disposal——Developed by the Institute for Thermal Power Engineering, Zhejiang University

The waste referred to includes solid waste and sludge. Solid waste is mainly from urban garbage and industrial waste. Sludge is from water treatment factories, paper mills, chemical factories, pharmaceutical factories, rivers and lakes. The waste and sludge are very harmful to water organisms, human health and drinking water, and directly affect the environment. Sludge and waste also occupy large areas of land. There are several methods to treat waste and sludge, such as burial, chemical treatment and incineration. Incineration is more effective than the

Teaching of Chongqing Institute of Engineering"

With the advent of the"Internet+"era and the development of educational informatization,smart teaching will become an important form of education and teaching.This paper starts with the concept and characteristics of smart teaching and takes the course"Innovation and Entrepreneurship Foundation"as an example.Based on the platform of"Smart Teaching of Chongqing Institute of Engineering",smart teaching practice and research is carried out in four stages:pre-class teaching,in-class teaching,after-class teaching,and teaching evaluation.The practice has proved that this new teaching mode realizes the complementary advantages of online and offline teaching,stimulates students'interest and initiative in learning,improves the teaching quality of the course,and has good application value.
