近日，浙江省科技厅发布《关于公布2022年度省级国际科技合作载体认定名单的通知》，由宁波诺丁汉大学副校长吴韬和加拿大皇家科学院、加拿大国家工程院两院院士、加拿大西安大略大学卓越教授祝京旭牵头的宁波诺丁汉大学“浙江-加拿大绿色化工联合实验室”成功列入2022年省级国际联合实验室认定名单。
浙江-加拿大绿色化工联合实验室（以下简称“国际联合实验室”）依托宁波诺丁汉大学，基于与加拿大西安大略大学的交流合作共同建设，落户在诺丁汉大学卓越灯塔计划（宁波）创新研究院（以下简称“灯塔研究院”）。
结合双方优势，国际联合实验室聚焦创新医药制剂技术、绿色能源转化及化工强化技术、颗粒材料及应用技术三大研究方向进行创新攻关，同时设立成果转化中心、公共测试平台等全力加持技术成果的发展与转化。灯塔研究院绿色化工与能源中心的副教授邵媛媛等科研力量，也积极参与实验室的建设中。

该国际联合实验室负责人由吴韬教授和祝京旭院士共同担任，两位在国际交流合作方面都具备丰富的管理经验。两校自2016年起便已开始了务实的学术交流，吴韬教授与祝京旭院士代表合作双方进行了多次的实地互访、探讨两校在绿色化工领域的校际合作。随着双方合作的深化，2020年后，祝院士先后被聘为宁波诺丁汉大学荣誉教授和灯塔研究院荣誉院长。2022年初，为进一步深化合作维度，正式成立了浙江-加拿大绿色能源化工国际联合实验室。
该国际实验室的建立，是宁波诺丁汉大学结合浙江省十四五期间的战略发展规划及产业发展状况，将世界领先的前沿资源和成果平移到浙江，同时引入国际优势研究团队和创新生态体系，加速共性技术、核心技术、关键技术的联合研发与转化，并且用国际化科创资源支撑地方产业化技术突破，满足浙江企业高质量发展需求的体现。
吴韬教授表示：
“我们希望在学校原有的国际化特点的基础上，与西安大略大学科研优势与积累相结合，通过创建国际联合实验室建立一个世界级的科学生态系统和技术创新平台，从而积聚海外高层次领军人才和科技创新资源，实施绿色能源化工领域高端技术的创新、孵化与转化。”
未来，浙江-加拿大绿色化工联合实验室将深入开展科研合作，整合海内外优秀科创资源，不断丰富合作方式与内涵，提升合作实效。
灯塔研究院由宁波市人民政府与英国诺丁汉大学合作共建，是赋能宁波高质量发展的国际化高能级研究院。
2021年5月，灯塔研究院项目启动，充分利用宁波诺丁汉大学立足本土、面向全球的独特优势，引进英国诺丁汉大学“卓越灯塔计划”的科研资源，结合宁波本地产业需求，布局智能制造、绿色化工与能源、生命健康三大方向，致力于独创性领域的研究和前沿技术的开拓，促进宁波诺丁汉大学从教学为主型向教学研究型转型。
短短一年多的时间，灯塔研究院广纳海内外顶尖科研人才与科创资源，建设并投入使用了39个国际化特征显著的科技创新实验室，在三大方向进行科研攻坚。

Zhejiang - Canada Joint Laboratory on Green Chemicals and Energy listed as 2022 Zhejiang international joint laboratory
Recently, the Science Technology Department of Zhejiang Province released the "Notice on the Announcement of the 2022 Provincial-level International Science and Technology Cooperation Carrier Recognition List". Zhejiang - Canada Joint Laboratory on Green Chemicals and Energy was successfully listed as an international joint laboratory at the provincial level in 2022. The laboratory is led by Professor Tao Wu, Vice Provost for China Beacons Institute, Dean of Faculty of Science and Engineering at the University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC), and Professor Jingxu Zhu, Distinguished Professor at the University of Western Ontario Canada (UWO), Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada and Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering.
The Zhejiang - Canada Joint Laboratory on Green Chemicals and Energy (hereinafter referred to as the "the Joint Laboratory") is jointly built by UNNC in collaboration with researchers from UWO. It will be established at the Nottingham Ningbo China Beacons of Excellence Research and Innovation Institute (hereinafter referred to as "CBI"). Combining the strengths of both universities, the Joint Laboratory will focus on three major research areas: innovative pharmaceutical formulation technology, green energy conversion and intensification technology in chemical engineering, and research and development of particulate materials, while setting up a results transformation centre and public analysis and testing platform to support the development of research outcomes. Associate Professor Yuanyuan Shao from Green Chemical and Energy Centre, CBI, and other academics are also involved in the construction of the laboratory.
The Joint Laboratory is jointly headed by Professor Wu and Professor Zhu, both of whom have extensive experience in international exchange and cooperation. The two universities have started academic exchanges since 2016. After 2020, Professor Zhu has been appointed as Honorary Professor and Honorary Director of CBI. In early 2022, a joint laboratory was established to support local industrial technological breakthroughs with international science and innovation resources.
Professor Wu said: “We hope to create an international joint laboratory to establish a world-class scientific ecosystem and technological innovation platform that builds on the uniqueness of the two universities. We hope it can attract more and more overseas top talent and resources to realise innovation and incubation in the field of green chemicals.”
In the future, the Joint Laboratory will explore in-depth research resources and cooperation at home and abroad in order to enrich its effectiveness.
CBI was jointly established by the Management Committee of Ningbo National Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone, UNNC, and Zhejiang Wanli Education Group, under the framework agreement signed between University of Nottingham and Ningbo Municipal Government in September 2020. In May 2021, UNNC launched the CBI. CBI leverages the unique “Ningbo-based and global-oriented” advantages of UNNC. By introducing the key international technological and innovative resources of the Beacons of Excellence from the UK, the intention is to attract global technology innovation resources. CBI focuses on three main research areas Intelligent Manufacturing, Green Chemicals and Energy, Life Science and Healthcare. In the past year, CBI has attracted top research talent and science and innovation resources from home and abroad. 39 laboratories have been built based on these three research areas.
