This Academic Research Facilities Modernization Program (ARFMP) award from the Research Facilities Office provides funds to The Pennsylvania State University-University Park Campus for the renovation and repair of Fenske Laboratory which houses that institution's chemical engineering research and research training activities, including tribology research, materials science of surfactants, environmental processes, and catalysis. This building was constructed in 1958 and was expanded by the addition of a new wing in 1968, but it has not been renovated since that time. The ARFMP grant of $825,000 and $1,133,226 provided by the grantee as cost sharing will be used to modernize these research and research training facilities. This project will address the need to improve the current research infrastructure by upgrading heating and air- conditioning to ensure proper conditions for computers and sensitive instruments; installing proper ventilation, lighting, and electrical circuits to meet health and safety standards; providing handicapped access; installing the wiring necessary for a computer network; and refurbishing laboratory space. This award contributes to the infrastructure of science and engineering by providing an improved environment for one of the nation's premier research programs, the Tribology Research Program, as well as for other fields of The Pennsylvania State University's Department of Chemical Engineering. Students trained in these laboratories, where high technology instruments are used and where numerous functional fluids and lubricants have been developed, are in demand in both basic and applied research fields.

学术研究设施现代化计划（ARFMP） 来自研究设施办公室的奖项为该项目提供资金。 宾夕法尼亚州立大学-大学公园校区 翻新和修复芬斯克实验室， 院校化工科研培训 活动，包括摩擦学研究，材料科学， 表面活性剂、环境过程和催化。这栋楼 建于1958年，并通过增加新的 1968年建成，但自那以后就没有进行过翻修。 的 研究拨款计划拨款八十二万五千元及由承授人提供的一千一百三万三千二百二十六元， 费用分担将用于使这些研究和研究现代化 培训设施。 该项目将解决需要改进的问题， 目前的研究基础设施，通过升级供暖和空气- 空调，以确保计算机的适当条件， 敏感仪器;安装适当的通风、照明和 符合健康和安全标准的电路;提供 残疾人通道;安装计算机所需的线路 网络;以及翻新实验室空间。 该奖项有助于科学的基础设施， 通过为其中一个提供更好的环境， 全国首屈一指的研究计划，摩擦学研究 计划以及宾夕法尼亚州的其他领域 大学化学工程系。 培养的学生 在这些使用高科技仪器的实验室里， 并且其中许多功能流体和润滑剂已经 在基础研究和应用研究中， 领域的
