The University of North Dakota is the recipient of ARI funds for the renovation of infrastructural utilities and laboratory case work, in its chemistry building, Abbott Hall. The renovations are necessary to permit undergraduate and graduate students to conduct their experiments in an environment that has adequate ventilation and support systems. In the original design of the building, it was anticipated that fumes could be withdrawn from the bench tops in laboratories by using small desk top hoods to remove vapors. This arrangement failed to remove sufficient vapors from the laboratories over the years and has reduced the types of experiments that can be performed in the building. To correct the problem, 30 fume hoods, including base cabinets and connections to water, electric, ventilation, and other piped gases and fluids will be installed. Accessible hoods, meeting ADA requirements, will be placed in the renovated laboratories. Improved facilities will provide a safe and pleasant research training environment, assisting the Chemistry Department in its recruitment efforts to attract new students.

北达科他州大学是ARI基金的接受者，用于其化学大楼Abbott Hall的基础设施和实验室案例工作的翻新。 为了让本科生和研究生能够在有足够通风和支持系统的环境中进行实验，有必要进行翻修。 在该建筑的最初设计中，预计可以通过使用小型桌面通风柜去除蒸汽来排出实验室工作台上的烟雾。 多年来，这种安排未能从实验室中去除足够的蒸汽，并减少了可以在建筑物中进行的实验类型。 为了解决这个问题，将安装30个通风柜，包括底柜和水、电、通风和其他管道气体和流体的连接。 符合ADA要求的可拆卸通风柜将放置在翻新的实验室中。 改善后的设施将提供一个安全和愉快的研究培训环境，协助化学系的招聘工作，以吸引新的学生。
