Abstract Proposal Title: Travel Support for US Academics to Attend the 9th International Conference on Inorganic Membranes in Lillehammer, Norway, Proposal Number: CTS-0612935, Principal Investigator: J. Douglas Way, Institution: Colorado School of MinesAbstract:This proposal requests support for international travel by U.S. academic participants to attend the Ninth International Conference on Inorganic Membranes (ICIM 9) that will be held in Lillehammer, Norway, June 25-29, 2006. The objective of the Conference is to bring together international researchers and industrial practitioners to present and discuss their results on the science and technology of inorganic membranes and to gain betterunderstanding of the synthesis, characterization and application of inorganic membranes. Intellectual Merit: Membrane research activity in the U.S. has been growing steadily for the past several years, there are still more activities on inorganic membrane research and development in Europe and Asia. The U.S. participation of the Conference is imperative for the research and development of this important emerging technology and ultimately, will enhance the U.S. competitiveness in the area of inorganic membrane technology, including solid oxide fuel cell electrolyte membranes as well as the production and separation of hydrogen. The Conference will cover both theoretical and experimental aspects of inorganic membranes relating to separation and membrane reactor technology. It is expected that there will be 10 - 15 U.S. academic participants. The total number ofparticipants is expected to be around 300 with probably 20-30 from the U.S., 150-170from Europe and the remaining 80-100 from Japan, China, Australia and the other Asiancountries.The broader impact of this conference is that it will foster the international collaboration between U.S. researchers and researchers from other countries. It is imperative that the U.S. has an active participation in this Conference to enhance the interaction between the U.S. researchers and researchers in Europe and also Asia. Furthermore, the Conference will provide an opportunity for the U.S. participants to gain understanding of the inorganic membrane activities relating to separation and chemical reaction technologies in the EU countries where many inorganic membrane technologies have a greater market penetration than in the US. It is anticipated that such exchanges on information will eventually enhance the US competitiveness in the area of inorganic membranes, high temperature fuel cells, hydrogen production, and separation technology.The meeting is being advertised in the Journal of Membrane Science, the North American Membrane Society Membrane Quarterly, and their European, Japanese, and Korean counterparts. Information about the meeting is posted on the internet at www.membranes.org.

摘要提案标题：美国学者参加在挪威利勒哈默尔举行的第九届无机膜国际会议的差旅费支持，提案编号：CTS-0612935，主要研究员：J.道格拉斯Way，机构：科罗拉多矿业学院摘要：本提案要求支持美国学者参加将于2006年6月25-29日在挪威利勒哈默尔举行的第九届无机膜国际会议（ICIM 9）的国际差旅费。会议的目的是汇集国际研究人员和工业从业人员，介绍和讨论他们在无机膜科学和技术方面的成果，并更好地了解无机膜的合成，表征和应用。智力优势：在过去的几年里，美国的膜研究活动一直在稳步增长，欧洲和亚洲的无机膜研究和开发活动仍然较多。美国的参与对于这一重要新兴技术的研究和开发至关重要，最终将提高美国在无机膜技术领域的竞争力，包括固体氧化物燃料电池电解质膜以及氢气的生产和分离。会议将涵盖与分离和膜反应器技术有关的无机膜的理论和实验方面。预计将有10 - 15名美国学术人员参加。预计参加者总数将在300人左右，其中可能有20-30人来自美国，150-170这次会议的更广泛的影响是，它将促进美国研究人员与其他国家研究人员之间的国际合作。美国必须积极参加这次会议，以加强美国研究人员与欧洲和亚洲研究人员之间的互动。此外，会议将为美国与会者提供一个机会，了解欧盟国家与分离和化学反应技术相关的无机膜活动，其中许多无机膜技术的市场渗透率高于美国。预计这种信息交流将最终提高美国在无机膜、高温燃料电池、制氢和分离技术领域的竞争力。会议将在《膜科学杂志》、《北美膜学会膜季刊》以及欧洲、日本和韩国的同行上刊登广告。有关会议的信息公布在互联网上，网址是www.membranes.org。
