He is the Vice President of the Lodz Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences, a vice chairperson of the Committee on Chemical and Process Engineering of the Polish Academy of Sciences,[5] a Polish representative in Drying Working Party and Science Advisory Committee European Federation of Chemical Engineering. In 1995 he received the title of the Honorary Professor of the Tianjin University in China. From 1984 to 1987 he was a Vice Rector, and from 1987 to 1990 the Rector of the Lodz University of Technology. From 1993 to 1999 he was the Dean of the Faculty of Process and Environmental Engineering.
Scientific activity
[edit]His scientific activity is connected with heat and mass transfer in the processes of distillation, evaporation, drying and fluidization. He is an author of the first Polish monograph in the field of drying.[6] His scientific achievements include 250 publications, 7 handbooks and monographs related to chemical engineering and process engineering. He has promoted 15 doctors of science.[7]
