Anders Qvale Nyrud

Professor

  • Seksjon for fornybar energi og skogvitenskap

Jeg jobber innenfor fagområdene  treteknologi, skogøkomomi og bioøkonomi. Det omfatter både undervisning og forskningl. Jeg er kursansvarlig for emnene SKOG210 (Skogprodukter og materialteknologi), TRE210 (Trelastindustri) og SKOG370 (Arbeidslivserfaring i skogfag), og har ansvar for deler av undervisningen i emnene SKOG100 og SKOG102 (introduksjon til skogbruk), SKOG250 og BIOEC300 (Introduksjon til bioøkonomi og biobasert verdiskapning). Jeg forsøker å engasjeree studentene med praktiske eksempler fra egen forskning og laboratoriearbei.

Jeg ønsker å forske råvarekvalitet, produksjonsprosesser og markedsforhold for treprodukter, med særlig fokus på funksjonelle og estetiske egenskaper samt miljøaspekter. Jeg har publisert bredt nasjonalt og internasjonalt, og ønsker kunne bidra til å fremme bærekraftig ressursbruk, jeg ønsker å styrke verdiskaping fra norske skogressurser og bidra til en bærekraftig og konkuransedyktig skogindustri.

 

I am a professor at NMBU with extensive research experience in wood technology, forest economics and applied bioeconomy. My research focuses on raw material quality, industrial production processes, and market dynamics for wood products, with a strong emphasis on functional, aesthetic, and environmental aspects. I am also working on bioeconomcis related to extraction and use of biomass from forest.

I have participated in and led several national and international research projects, often collaborating with industry partners and academic institutions across Europe. I am recognized for my expertise in consumer preferences for wood products, sustainable resource utilization, and value creation in the bioeconomy. Through numerous scientific publications and active involvement in international networks, I have contributed significantly to knowledge development in this field. I am also experienced in interdisciplinary research and project management.

In addition to my research activities, I teach courses in wood products, forest industry, and resource management at NMBU, engaging students with current research and industry issues. I am responsible for courses wood value chain, wood processing (SKOG210, TRE210, SKOG250, SKOG370) and I also teach introduction to forest economics (SKOG100, SKOG102) and bioeconomics/biologically based value creation (BIOEC300).
