Aurel LUNGULEASA

Prof. Aurel Lunguleasa is a Professor in the Department of Wood Processing and Design of Wood Products at the Faculty of Furniture Design and Wood Engineering, Transilvania University of Brașov. His research focuses on木质 biomass energy, wood composites, and thermal treatment of wood materials. Key areas include improving the calorific value of pellets via torrefaction, developing low-emission adhesives for particleboards, and analyzing energy characteristics of larch and oak biomass.

• Key Projects: Studies on ash wood thermal properties, sunflower husk-based pellets, and energy yield of wood composites.
• Geographic Focus: Romania's forestry and biomass resources.

Research Interests:
Prof. Lunguleasa's work addresses sustainable biomass utilization, including:

• Optimizing wood-based energy materials
• Material characterization via thermal treatments
• Waste-to-energy solutions for agricultural residues
• Conservation of cultural heritage wooden artifacts

Recent Trends in Publications: Recent work emphasizes interdisciplinary applications of wood science, such as integrating agricultural waste (e.g., sunflower husks) into energy systems and advancing conservation techniques for heritage objects. His studies consistently highlight Romania's potential in woody biomass as a renewable energy source.
