Documentations of groundbreaking event
SGLC-ERIC buildings have deep philosophy. In this building, there are four pillars that represent four pillars of synergy: academic-business-government-community. Every pillar is a source of learning materials. Learning is done by exposing “the pillars” to the students, and let the students interact with them (observing, studying, analyzing, experimenting, and synthesizing solutions for them). Design of the SGRC and ERIC buildings can be seen in this link.
Webinar and Focus Group DiscussionSGLC-ERIC through Unconventional Geo-Resources Research Group (UGRG) UGM held an FGD on August 5-6, 2020 in Yogyakarta. The aim of this FGD is to discuss about added value of coal, focusing on the concept of green transmutation and circular economy.
Mr. Himawan gave an explanation about coal waste management in front of FGD audiences
Webinar Series Part 1 was held through the Zoom platform on Friday, Oct 30, 2020. This webinar was hosted by UGRG UGM and presenting three speakers: Dr. Eng. Lucas Donny Setijadji, Himawan Tri Bayu Murti Petrus, D. Eng., and Dr. Ferian Anggara. The aim of this webinar is to discuss about the potential and exploration problems of critical elements in Indonesia nowadays and in the future and continued with a discussion about the importance of ore characterization and its relation to an effective and efficient critical elements extraction process.
Webinar Series Part 2 was held through the Zoom platform on Friday, Nov 13, 2020. This webinar was hosted by UGRG UGM and presenting two speakers: Dr. Raden Sukhyar and Dr. Eng. Widi Astuti. The aim of this webinar is to discuss about the mineral-based downstream industry and the role of research in the downstream mineral industry in Indonesia. There was an important message in the framework of strategic Indonesian local mineral processing based on low cost and zero-waste technology: the need for collaboration of all parties, both government, industries, researchers, and universities, as well as harmonization of upstream-downstream mineral and coal policies.
Webinar Series Part 3 was held through the Zoom platform on Friday, Nov 27, 2020. This webinar was hosted by UGRG UGM and presenting two speakers: Mr. Singgih Widagdo and Dr. Rita Susilawati. From this webinar, we know that the downstream coal industry is not easy but it is something that should be fought for. Therefore, it requires synergy and cooperation between the government, industries, researchers, and educational institutions in order to realize cleaner coal utilization and more environmentally friendly. All of SGLC-ERIC Webinars have students and professionals target audience.
