| ECOSEN Ltd. has been founded in 1991 as a
private Research Laboratory. There are two main domains that were achieved
by the scientific staff of the society: research studies and educational
programs. The research studies include: environmental
physics, environmental monitoring, semiconductor sensors and real time
monitoring systems. The educational programs include: courses and laboratories
including measurements for ecology and environmental monitoring. The
environmental laboratory for education is composed of real time monitoring
systems specially designed for students, prepared for air and water purity measurements.
The educational department of the company is prepared for courses,
pre-explanation for students laboratories, output data computing, using
designed software. The research programs that were elaborated and performed include the
following domains:

Main
Customers
The main customers are research institutes of
Education and Research Ministry, research departments of Universities and
companies. We joined them in more than 10 projects of the National Research
Program. During these projects, the scientists of the company have published more
than 20 papers in the field of the modeling of the semiconductor sensor
microsystems and of geoecology. These papers were presented at the
international conferences or are included in international scientific reviews
(Solid State Electronics, Atmospheric Environment). The company supported also
the preparation of three doctoral theses in the field of semiconductor devices
modeling and geoecology and 18 student graduate theses. Starting from 1995, the
company has developed its own projects in the field of the intelligent systems
for monitoring the toxic and flammable gases imission. The company developed
also a project in the field of optoelectronic matrix sensors, for image
detection.
ECOSEN Ltd. is working with the Faculty of
Managerial Engineering of the Ecological University of Bucharest for a quality
of environment course and laboratory. The 5 project managers (3 PhD, 2 MS) of
our company have a large experience in sensors research and production. During
about 15 years work in the Baneasa Semiconductor Industry Area, they designed
and supervised the manufacture of more than 40 opto-electronic devices. Some of
them have worked also for 20 years (and are still working) in studies,
measurements and management for environmental monitoring. Our specialists in
collaboration with other two companies: Marathon SRL and Caloris SRL, produced
data acquisition and dedicated software. Additionally, their education
qualification and practice exceeds 30 years. The 5 project managers (3 PhD, 2 MS) of our company have a large experience in sensors research and production.
