A planning meeting will be held to determine if a new multi-university Industry/University Cooperative Research Center Micro and Nano Filtration will be established at North Carolina State University and the University of Akron. The center will focus on the following goals: encompass different aspects of filtration from materials and large-scale nano/micro-fiber production to the modeling their structures and filtration performance, to the activation of the fiber surfaces to form self-decontamination properties; integrate existing technologies of mechanical air/liquid filters with those of chemically-active membranes; and engineer filter media for the separation of biological and chemical agents from a liquid stream.The center will play a leadership role for the Filtration industry by stimulating high quality research and education, while developing a skilled workforce, and at the same time creating new jobs in the U.S. Filtration industry. The Center will also establish synergies between the related fiber and non-fiber industries, stimulate collaboration between the different disciplines associated with the filtration industry, and impact socially important problems in health, environment, worker safety; connections to homeland security issues.

将举行一次规划会议，以确定是否将在北卡罗来纳州立大学和阿克伦大学建立一个新的多大学产业/大学合作研究中心微纳过滤。该中心将专注于以下目标：涵盖过滤的不同方面，从材料和大规模纳米/微纤维生产到对其结构和过滤性能的建模，再到纤维表面的活化以形成自去污性能；将现有的机械空气/液体过滤器技术与化学活性膜的技术相结合；设计用于从液体流中分离生物和化学制剂的过滤介质。该中心将通过刺激高质量的研究和教育，同时培养熟练的劳动力，并同时在美国过滤行业创造新的就业机会，发挥过滤行业的领导作用。该中心还将在相关纤维和非纤维行业之间建立协同作用，促进与过滤行业相关的不同学科之间的合作，并影响健康、环境、工人安全、与国土安全问题的联系等社会重要问题。
