The greenhouse effect arising from carbon emissions has attracted worldwide attention. Carbon capture
can help solve this problem, but existing devices are relatively large and inefficient. A research team
consisting of Professors Kuo-Lun Tung, Chia-Wen Wu, and Cheng-Liang Chen from the NTU Department
of Chemical Engineering is working to solve this problem by developing an integrated system for carbon
capture and utilization. This innovative system overcomes the shortcomings of conventional devices,
including poor thermal efficiency, unwieldy bulkiness, and brief lifespan. It reuses carbon dioxide, making
it an excellent example of the circular economy and sustainable materials. Captured carbon dioxide can
be applied in the production processes of petroleum and other chemicals, reducing operating costs to
only one-third of old systems. This novel materials technology for carbon capture earned the team a gold
medal at the 2016 Invention and New Product Exposition in Pittsburgh, US. The carbon separation and

Conclusion
University archives comprise different forms of historical records. All these records, ranging from documents to images of campus
landscapes, are witnesses to the trajectory and development of both the university and its campus. By organizing this joint archival
exhibition, NTU and NCHU not only offered the public a glimpse of the abundant cultural and historical records kept and maintained
by universities, but also demonstrated the spirit of diversity in Taiwan’s higher education to the international community.
