Optimum Industrial Complexing, Fertilizer-Cement Plants, Indo-U.S. Collaborative Project, Award in U.S. and Indian Currencies

项目说明：本项目支持由迈阿密大学T.N. Veziroglu博士和Nelson Nemerow博士领导的美国团队与由P. Khanna博士领导的印度那格浦尔国家环境工程研究所（NEERI）团队之间的研究合作。研究的目的是确定在一个地点的一个环境平衡的工业综合体内，选址、建造和经营一个由磷肥厂和水泥厂组成的两工业综合体的可行性。在项目的第一阶段，将根据获得的数据开发一个分析模型，以产生肥料-水泥厂综合体的最佳质量平衡，并在第二阶段建立实验室工作台原型，以测试建模结果。重点将是把各种参数与生产这两种材料的成本效益高、减少废物和环境满意的模式联系起来。范围：该项目涉及一个简单且有吸引力的想法，但尚未实施。原因是未知变量的存在及其对程序可行性和效率的影响。在这项研究中，来自美国的工业专家和来自印度的环境工程专家参与其中，预计这些变量及其影响将被定义。这些资料应有助于选择最佳的执行条件。该项目将受益于美国和印度的互补资源，而且这些好处很可能会给两国带来好处。＊＊＊

9408275 Veziroglu Description: This project supports research collaboration between a U.S. team headed by Dr. T.N. Veziroglu and Dr. Nelson Nemerow, of the U. of Miami, and a team from the Indian National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) in Nagpur, India, headed by Dr. P. Khanna. The objective of the research is to determine the feasibility of locating, building and operating a two-industry complex, consisting of a phosphate fertilizer and a cement plant, within an environmentally balanced industrial complex at one site. An analytical model will be developed from data obtained to produce an optimum mass balance for the fertilizer-cement plants complex during the first phase of the project, and laboratory bench prototypes will be built to test the modeling results during the second phase. The focus will be on relating the various parameters to a cost-effective, waste-reducing, and environmentally satisfactory model for the production of these two materials. Scope: This project deals with an idea that is simple and also attractive, but which has not been implemented yet. The reason is the existence of unknown variables and their impact on the viability and efficiency of the procedure. In this research, involving experts from the U.S. with industrial concerns and environmental engineering specialists from India, it is expected that these variables and their impacts will be defined. This information should lead to the selection of optimum conditions for implementation. The project will benefit from the complementary resources in the U.S. and India, and the benefits are likely to accrue to the two countries. ***
