Chen Jiachuan: A university president who is almost infatuated with scientific inventions, invites global talents

In 2018, Qilu University of Technology (Professional Academy of Sciences) and the company jointly developed the "bio-mechanical method of green pulp and paper key technology" was listed as a major science and technology project of Shandong old and new can be converted.

Not long ago, how did the new kinetic energy project come into being? Chen Jiachuan, president (dean) of Qilu University of Technology (Professor of Science and Technology) accepted an exclusive interview with the manufacturing industry. During the interview, he also talked about lithography machines and chips. He was very concerned about the chip industry and was very confused. He said: "The main task of the university is talent cultivation, but industrial technology innovation is also the unshirkable responsibility of the university, especially engineering universities. The school is inviting talents from all fields in the world to invite Qilu University to do teaching and research and development. To create an internationally important applied research university for Shandong. Chen Jiachuan is a scientist-type university president who has always struggled in the front line of scientific research. He is almost infatuated with scientific inventions and has unique insights into R&D and practical applications.

1/Chen Jiachuan’s “Biotechnology Green Papermaking” invention results, achieving scale commercialization

I met Chen Jiachuan because in the process of interviewing Shandong paper industry in 2001, entrepreneurs constantly mentioned to me the technical support of Dr. Chen Jiachuan from Shandong Institute of Light Industry (Qilu University of Technology). At that time, Chen Jiachuan was a school. Vice-principal and leader of pulp and paper disciplines, the paper industry in Shandong began to rise during that period.

For decades, Chen Jiachuan has been committed to the development of bio-paper. In 1994, after graduating from South China University of Technology, he entered the postdoctoral mobile station of Shandong University, specializing in pulp and paper biotechnology under the guidance of Professor Gao Peiji and Qu Yinbo. It can be said that Chen Jiachuan is the first postdoctoral researcher in biology specializing in pulp and paper biotechnology. His postdoctoral thesis is “Biobleaching and enzymatic modification of straw pulp”. On the basis of laboratory research, in 1996, related technologies were carried out in more than 10 companies for large-scale industrialization experiments, and Professor Gao Peiji and other on-site guidance. Since 2000, it has cooperated with domestic and foreign enzyme preparation companies such as Australia to achieve industrialized continuous production of non-wood biobleaching and fiber modification. Professor Chen Kefu, the first academician of the papermaking industry in China, visited the Huatai Group biobleaching production line to inspect and guide the site and fully affirmed the new technology. In 2003, Chen Jiachuan served as the president of Shandong Institute of Light Industry (now Qilu University of Technology), but he always worked on the front line of research, and research on biotechnology has never been put down.

In 2005, Chen Jiachuan presided over the “Bio-pre-bleaching and enzymatic improvement technology for straw pulp” project, which won the second prize of National Science and Technology Progress Award. Since then, due to the inability to form large-scale intensive production of straw pulp, most of China's enterprises have begun to eliminate the straw pulp production line. Large enterprises represented by Chenming and Huatai have started afforestation and actively implemented the forestry-pulp-paper integration strategy.

Facing the new situation, Chen Jiachuan uses wood as the main raw material and is still pioneering exploration and research and development in the field of pulp and paper biotechnology. In 2015, Chen Jiachuan and Chenming Paper Group and Sun Paper Group jointly won the second prize of National Technology Invention for “Key Technology and Application of Enzyme Catalysis in Fast-growing Hardwood Pulp and Papermaking Process”. This technology has played an important role in promoting the green development of China's paper industry, and a number of paper-making enzyme preparation companies have been born. Qingdao Weilan Bio and Shanghai Kangdien Han Yu Manager said that the papers and award-winning projects published by Professor Chen Jiachuan have greatly promoted the application of our company's enzyme preparations in the paper industry, supported by Professor Chen's achievements. The promotion of the company's paper enzyme preparations played a key role.

In 2017, China refused to become a major importer of garbage, banned the import of waste paper, and the shortage of papermaking materials. Therefore, Qilu University of Technology adopted the school-enterprise cooperation method and jointly developed the “Bio-Mechanical Green Pulp and Paper Key Technology” project with the enterprise. The project belongs to biotechnology straw pulp green paper, and the goal is to achieve pollution-free and zero-emission. The project was listed as a key scientific research project for the conversion of new and old kinetic energy in Shandong Province. It is currently under construction and is expected to be completed and put into operation next year.

In the history of Chinese papermaking, many people use biotechnology pulp and paper, but it is difficult to complete industrial production because they cannot solve a series of problems in processes and equipment. Chen Jiachuan led the team to carry out technological innovation in the entire production chain of production equipment and pulp and papermaking technology through industry-university-research cooperation and collaborative research, which greatly promoted the process of bio-paper industrialization. Therefore, Chen Jiachuan is a “bio-paper pioneer” for industrial production. Not too much.

In terms of teaching, Chen Jiachuan's lectures are "Pulping Principles and Engineering", "Pulping Chemistry", "Paper Plant Resources Chemistry" and so on. His research interests include "high yield clean pulp bleaching technology; pulp and paper biotechnology; high value utilization technology for pulp and paper solid waste; bio-based functional materials".

Chen Jiachuan was fascinated by the three scientific researches of “Biology, Fermentation and Chemistry”. He found that there was a wonderful combination between them. After he invented the bio-paper technology, his research and development direction expanded from pulp and paper to biomass. Green new energy. He said: "All things are connected to the highest realm. The different arrangements of atoms produce different substances, and the scientific world must be full of creativity and imagination to be invented."

After Chen Jiachuan graduated from teaching in 1982, he did not leave Qilu University of Technology. Why? Because he is not willing to leave his lab and office, even on holidays, he will study and work in the office every day, he said that he is used to it. He has almost no hobbies. The only hobby is to like work, build disciplines, build teams, do academics, do research, and tirelessly enjoy it.

Chen Jiachuan is a senior expert of the central government, a special allowance expert of the State Council, a national-level candidate for the new century talent project, etc. He is a person with liberal arts thinking, science logic, and engineering spirit. He has won three national science and technology awards. Authorized more than 30 invention patents; successively presided over the 973 plan, the National Natural Science Foundation project, the national science and technology research project, the provincial and ministerial level major science and technology projects and other research topics, is currently the national key research and development plan project "based on the papermaking process of efficient use of fiber raw materials (2017YFB0307900)" Chief Scientist.

In June 2018, Chen Jiachuan presided over the establishment of the “Ministry of State Key Laboratory of Bio-based Materials and Green Papermaking”, which was established by experts in the implementation of the implementation plan. The laboratory's construction goal is to lead the effective combination of biomass refining technology and green papermaking technology, to make breakthroughs in the field of bio-based materials, and to explore biomass energy alternatives to fossil energy, which is also the research dream of Chen Jiachuan. However, his higher dream is to make Qilu University of Technology an international engineering university. He said that at least there is an important influence in the international arena.

2/ Only by going to the production line can we cultivate more R&D talents

According to statistics, Qilu University of Technology is one of the first batch of “Excellent Engineer Education and Training Program 2.0” and “New Engineering Research and Practice Project”, which is the first batch of Shandong Famous Schools and the “Shandong Province 2011 Collaborative Innovation Center”. . On May 28, 2017, the Shandong Provincial Government announced the integration of science and education between Qilu University of Technology and Shandong Academy of Sciences to form a new Qilu University of Technology (Provincial Academy). "Science and Education Integration" is a Shandong strategy. The goal is to build the newly formed Qilu University of Technology into a domestic first-class, internationally important applied research university.

Manufacturing industry: Hello, the principal! After the integration of Qilu University of Technology and Shandong Academy of Sciences, I found that the application of the famous university has become an applied research university. Has the development orientation of the school changed?

Chen Jiachuan: Yes! After the “integration of science and education”, the provincial party committee and the provincial government have positioned the school as “applied research university”, and it has to be built into “a domestic first-class, internationally important applied research university”. This positioning is very important. It is also a pioneering work in China. It shows that the provincial party committee and the provincial government are far-sighted and boldly promote the reform of the science and technology education system. This is not only the Shandong strategy, but also the medium- and long-term development goal of Qilu University of Technology.

Manufacturing industry: Applied research type? Did Qigong University begin to train scientists?

Chen Jiachuan: The so-called "application research type" means that we must always insist on cultivating applied high-level professionals. At the same time, we must vigorously carry out applied research and social services, continuously improve the ability and level of scientific research and social services, and transform new and old kinetic energy. service. As a research university, we must actively advocate "research-based teaching" in teaching work, and achieve "promoting teaching with scientific research" to continuously improve students' engineering application ability and innovation and entrepreneurial ability. We must vigorously develop postgraduate education and provide a large number of high-level talents for the society. As a large industrial province, Shandong Province has a complete range of products. The sustainable development of enterprises requires both “talent support” and “technical support”. The two cannot be biased. After the merger and reorganization, the Shandong Academy of Sciences brought so many scientific research resources to the school. First, the school's teacher structure has been optimized. Second, the school has more research platforms. As a unique engineering university and the largest natural science research institution in Shandong Province, in addition to cultivating engineers, scientists and entrepreneurs, we must become a research and development base based on application foundation, major key common technologies and cutting-edge technology research; The base for creating high-level scientific and technological innovation and entrepreneurship talents; the largest open public innovation service platform; the frontier platform for absorbing scientific and technological innovation resources at home and abroad; the transformation of scientific and technological achievements and the high-tech demonstration enterprise incubation base.

According to statistics, there are 7 "double-employed" academicians, 2005 full-time teachers, and 1,200 full-time researchers, including 946 associate professors and above, and 1002 doctoral degree holders. 113 provincial and ministerial-level key disciplines and research platforms, including the State Key Laboratory, the National Engineering Laboratory, the National Engineering Technology Research Center, the National Supercomputing Center, the Ministry of Education Key Laboratory, and the Shandong Provincial Key Laboratory. , international joint laboratories, provincial collaborative innovation centers, and so on.

Manufacturing industry: At present, China is moving from a manufacturing power to a big research and development country. You have been encouraging research and development because you are a scientist. As the president of the university, how do you think the university should cultivate more R&D talents?

Chen Jiachuan: A technology invention can make a big industry. First of all, to encourage research and development, universities must cultivate innovative soils and form a good research and development atmosphere and environment. Second, aiming at an industry, we must understand the upstream and downstream needs of this industry, understand the entire industrial chain, and do research and development around the entire industry chain. For example, the big industry of smart phones, we do not have the ability to develop "radio frequency chips", but we can do exploratory research and development and technical research on electronic glass raw materials to achieve "import substitution." Third, adopt the "school-enterprise cooperation" model, go to the manufacturing line, understand the industry on the spot, and do some forward-looking design and research and development.

In short, as an industrial university, it is necessary to combine and interact with the industrial economy, and then return to the classroom and return to the laboratory to achieve integration. Only by going to the production line, theory and practice can cultivate more R&D talents.

Manufacturing: Do you think scientists must have talent?

Chen Jiachuan: Everyone has all kinds of talents. Scientists must also have scientific talents and more need to explore the unknown spirit. Any technological invention is a flash of inspiration in actual exploration. For example, the inspiration of steam engines comes from pressure cookers; modern computers originate from the most basic and simple mathematical rules. Bell, the inventor of the telephone, used sunlight as a light source to get through the first optical telephone. Real scientists are imaginative and can feel the wonders and poetry of the scientific world.

Manufacturing industry: For many years, the pulp and paper discipline has always adopted the “school-enterprise cooperation” model, which is also the most successful model. Should other disciplines of Qigong University strengthen and replicate the "school-enterprise cooperation" model?

Chen Jiachuan: Each discipline of Qigong University is willing to establish strategic partnerships with outstanding manufacturing companies in the world, including cooperation in technological research, transformation of results, and personnel training.

3/ Traditional Engineering +, Qilu University of Technology (Academy) is full of technology and intelligence

Manufacturing sector: China needs to develop high-quality GDP, and traditional manufacturing needs to be optimized and upgraded. It is understood that Qigongda's traditional engineering is very cutting-edge, such as robotics, machine vision, Internet of Things and other areas of artificial intelligence. Can you give me a brief introduction?

Chen Jiachuan: At present, we have institutes related to next-generation information technology and intelligent manufacturing, such as the School of Mechanical and Automotive Engineering, the School of Electrical Engineering and Automation, the School of Electronic Information Engineering, the School of Computer Science, the School of Cyberspace Security, and the School of Optoelectronic Engineering. The disciplines of these colleges are intertwined, and the professional sense of technology and intelligence is strong. In addition to the above teaching units, we also have professional research institutions, such as computing centers (supercomputer centers), laser research institutes, automation research institutes, mechanical design institutes, etc.

In terms of new energy vehicle manufacturing, we have broken through the core technical problems of advanced power system, high-performance vehicle energy system and high-safety vehicle integration through “school-enterprise cooperation”, and cooperated with Zhongtong Automobile to form an annual output of 20,000 new vehicles. The demonstration industrial park of the energy bus successfully launched 32 series of new energy vehicles, with a total of 18,927 vehicles. The operation area covers more than 100 cities in China, and the cooperation project won the first prize of Shandong Science and Technology Progress Award. The relevant colleges have undertaken more than 80 vertical scientific research projects including national science and technology major projects and the National Natural Science Foundation, and more than 100 horizontal projects. Authorized more than 20 national invention patents, and won more than 10 provincial and ministerial-level science and technology awards. In the China Intelligent Robot Competition, the National Advanced Mapping Technology and Product Information Modeling Innovation Competition, more than 80 national awards and more than 200 provincial awards were won.

Then our School of Electrical Engineering and Automation set up the Internet of Things and machine vision, and achieved traditional engineering + artificial intelligence. The college consists of three departments and experimental teaching centers, including the Department of Automation, the Department of Electrical Engineering, and the Department of Electronic Engineering, as well as four researches including the Institute of Automation, the Institute of Machine Vision and Information Processing, the Institute of Smart Grid Technology, and the Institute of Automotive Electronics Technology. All. It has degree points such as “Control Science and Engineering”, “Internet of Things Engineering” and “Smart Grid Engineering”. In the national electronic design competition, the national smart car competition, the national college student Siemens Cup Industrial Automation Challenge and other scientific competitions, the college won 18 national second prizes, 9 third prizes, 1 provincial special prize and 1 first prize. 95 items, 25 second prizes and 55 third prizes.

Manufacturing industry: Two traditional engineering departments have added AI artificial intelligence, and other engineering departments have also been optimized?

Chen Jiachuan: We have upgraded and upgraded 20 traditional engineering majors such as light engineering, mechanical design and manufacturing, chemical pharmacy, new materials and bioengineering. The combination of high-tech and traditional engineering has made the new engineering department full of science and technology and intelligence.

In addition, after reorganizing with the Shandong Academy of Sciences, the three new institutes of science and education integration, including the School of Optoelectronic Engineering Internationalization, the School of Cyberspace Security, and the School of Energy and Power Engineering, were newly established. The “Artificial Intelligence+” special class was also established, and the number was strengthened. The development of information technology profession. In order to promote the transformation and upgrading of China's industry, we will actively cultivate and apply high-tech talents with international competitiveness.

4/ Introduce the international research and development of cutting-edge talents to create Qilu University of Technology (Academy) “Startup Silicon Valley”

Manufacturing industry: A common goal in the world is to build a smart world in which all things are perceived and connected by all things. Some people predict that China will be the leader in the fourth wave of industrial revolution with the theme of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things. What do you think?

Chen Jiachuan: Intelligence must be a trend. China may lead the world in the software industry, but in terms of hardware, especially in the cutting-edge technology industries such as lithography machines and chips, it is still unable to achieve localization and lead the fourth industrial revolution. China must make efforts.

Manufacturing industry: lithography machines and chips are the pain points and shortcomings of China's industry. Do you think universities should be responsible?

Chen Jiachuan: The main task of the university is to cultivate talents, and technological innovation is also an unshirkable responsibility. Seeing the media reported that there are so many "card neck" technologies and core technologies to be developed in various industries, there is a lot of confusion, especially for the lithography machine and the chip. The media reports are good, and the list is also listed, so that the research institutes have found a breakthrough in research and development and conquer, based on the list to make choices, accurate research and development.

Manufacturing industry: What is Qigong’s plan to do?

Chen Jiachuan: The University of Technology (Academy of Science and Technology) currently has the best research and teaching platform in our province. We must rely on these platforms as an option to find cutting-edge talents in a certain field to conduct sophisticated research and development. For example, we can rely on our "Photoelectric Engineering Internationalization Institute" and related institutes to form a team to send invitations to cutting-edge scientific and technological talents in the field of optoelectronics, lithography machines and chips, and invite people with lofty ideals to teach at the University of Science and Technology (Academy). , research and development, and entrepreneurship.

Manufacturing industry: It is understood that the "Photoelectric Engineering Internationalization Institute" is an international model school built by Qigong University.

Chen Jiachuan: The school (academy of sciences) hired Grattan, an academician of the Royal Academy of Engineering, as the dean of the college. It introduced the advanced curriculum system, teaching management model and foreign high-quality educational resources of the British university. It adopts one-to-one tutor system, precise personalized education and English environment teaching. Directly participate in scientific research and other methods to create a professional and international educational environment and atmosphere. We are committed to building the Optoelectronic Engineering Internationalization College into a training base for scientific research and innovation and entrepreneurial talents in the field of optoelectronics in Shandong and even the whole country. Conversion output base. Strive to build a model of internationalization of higher education with international standards and Chinese characteristics.

The school plans to establish 2-3 international model colleges, vigorously introduce high-quality educational resources from the United States, Germany and other countries, and attract new institutions such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences and universities to set up new research and development institutions.

Manufacturing industry: Building a “domestic first-class, internationally important application research university”, I feel that Qigongda is going to make a big move?

Chen Jiachuan: The school has formulated an implementation plan for the construction of a “first-class university” and launched eight major action plans within the entire school (institution). Have specific information you can look at.

According to statistics, Qilu University of Technology implemented the “3151” talent program, which means that 100 high-end talents will be cultivated within 3 years, and 1,000 outstanding doctors will be introduced within 5 years. By 2020, a high-end talent team consisting of 100 academicians, Changjiang scholars, and national Jieqing will be established. Each teaching and research unit will build at least one team led by national talents. The main research direction of key development disciplines must be There are national-level talents; by 2020, the national-level R&D platform will reach about 10, the provincial-level R&D platform will be around 80, and the national-level scientific research awards will be won (three years), and the number of national fund projects will reach 120. It has reached 800 million yuan and the number of invention patents has reached 1,000. By 2020, we will achieve the goal of “12345”: we will produce a batch of advanced and applicable technological achievements every year, break through one subversive technology and 20 key technologies in the industry, realize the transformation income of 300 million yuan, and the horizontal project funding of 400 million yuan. The economic and social benefits are 50 billion yuan, and the social service capacity ranks among the leading universities in Shandong Province. The horizontal project funding income ranks among the top 30 universities in China.

Manufacturing industry: Since you were the president of Qilu University of Technology in 2003, your "international beliefs" have not changed from the pursuit of internationally high-profile universities to the pursuit of internationally influential applied research universities. Which university in the world do you think is the most worthy of your study?

Chen Jiachuan: Of course it is Stanford University. In the 1930s, it was because Stanford University supported alumni entrepreneurship that Stanford University teachers and students worked day and night in the high-tech field, turning a farm into a “sleepless Silicon Valley” and a “scientific place of science and technology”. It is understood that the company founded by Stanford alumni The output value accounts for 50-60% of the total output value of Silicon Valley.

Through various channels, Qigong Dazheng has introduced 100 talents of “high-precision and lacking” at home and abroad, and built a world-class high-end industrial talent gathering place and innovation and entrepreneurship demonstration park, so that teachers, students and alumni can jointly build Qigong’s “Startup Silicon Valley”. To nurture and incubate high-tech enterprises and become a “rich mine” and achievement transformation base for scientific and technological achievements.
