1624141Athanassious Z. PanagiotopoulosThe project supports attendance of U.S. researchers at the Properties and Phase Equilibria for Product and Process Design (PPEPPD) international conference this coming May, 2016 in Porto, Portugal. The PPEPPD conference is the premier worldwide conference in the area of molecular thermodynamics as related to chemical process and product design. By subsidizing airfare for attendance of both senior and junior academic researchers at the conference, the award will foster exchange of scientific ideas and the latest advances in this important area of chemical research focusing on thermophysical properties and phase equilibrium data needed to lower costs and improve efficiencies across a broad spectrum of chemical products and processes. PPEPPD 2016 will bring together international researchers in the application of molecular thermodynamics to industrially relevant product and process design. The conference will provide a forum for interactions between both junior and senior researchers at the cutting edge of techniques for thermophysical properties and phase equilibrium measurement and estimation, and identify the challenges in the growing areas of alternative energy resources and storage, gas and oil upstream and downstream processing, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, marine and saline systems and processes, nanotechnology, and sustainability. One of the primary goals of PPEPPD is to provide interaction between academic, government, and industrial researchers on how molecular thermodynamics (experimental and computation) can benefit real-world industrial product and process design. The meetings are the most important gatherings for molecular thermodynamicists from all over the world - typically attracting 200-300 participants from North America, South America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. The topics selected by the International Organizing Committee of the 14th PPEPPD include both fundamental aspects of molecular thermodynamics (thermodynamics and transport properties, surfaces, interfaces and confinement effects, quantum calculations and force fields, and molecular and multiscale simulations),and applied aspects (product and process engineering, gas and oil downstream and upstream processes, alternative energy resources and storage, environmental processes, sustainability and risk management, carbon capture and storage, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, food processing, agrochemicals and biomass, marine and saline systems, materials, and nanotechnology). The purpose of PPEPPD is the sharing of state-of-the-art techniques to further product and process design that will fuel world-wide economic growth in the chemical and related industries, and allow the modeling of new separation processes for meeting lower greenhouse gas emission goals. U.S. participation is essential for making contributions to the general knowledge base, for building awareness of global activities, and for fostering international collaboration. The requested funding would provide air fare support for a few senior invited U.S. lecturers and members of the international organizing committee, but will mainly provide support for approximately 16 young researchers who would not be able to attend without such support. From an educational standpoint, this represents a unique opportunity for young attendees to network with peers from around the world and experience the latest worldwide perspective on research trends in the areas of thermodynamics, transport properties, phase equilibria, etc. as related to a broad range of chemical processes and products.

1624141Athanassious Z. Panagiotopoulos该项目支持美国研究人员参加产品和过程设计（PPEPPD）国际会议，2016年5月在葡萄牙波尔图举行。 PPEPPD会议是与化学过程和产品设计相关的分子热力学领域的首要世界会议。 通过在会议上补贴高级和初级学术研究人员参加的机票，该奖项将促进科学思想的交流以及这一重要的化学研究领域的最新进展，重点是热物理特性和相位平衡数据，以降低成本并提高各种化学产品和过程的效率。 PPEPPD 2016将汇集国际研究人员，将分子热力学应用于工业相关的产品和过程设计。该会议将在热门物理性能和相平衡的技术和估计方面的最前沿，为初级和高级研究人员之间的互动提供一个论坛，并确定替代能源资源以及储存，天然气，上游和下游处理，药物和储物，药物以及元素，海上和盐水系统和盐水系统和加工的挑战。 PPEPPD的主要目标之一是在学术，政府和工业研究人员之间提供有关分子热力学（实验和计算）如何使现实世界中的工业产品和过程设计受益的相互作用。这些会议是来自世界各地的分子热力学家最重要的聚会 - 通常吸引来自北美，南美，欧洲，亚洲，中东和非洲的200-300名参与者。 The topics selected by the International Organizing Committee of the 14th PPEPPD include both fundamental aspects of molecular thermodynamics (thermodynamics and transport properties, surfaces, interfaces and confinement effects, quantum calculations and force fields, and molecular and multiscale simulations),and applied aspects (product and process engineering, gas and oil downstream and upstream processes, alternative energy resources and storage, environmental processes, sustainability and风险管理，碳捕获和存储，药物和化妆品，食品加工，农业化学和生物量，海洋和盐水系统，材料和纳米技术）。 PPEPPD的目的是共享最先进的技术，以进一步推动产品和过程设计，这将推动化学及相关行业全球经济增长，并允许建模新的分离过程，以实现低温温室气体排放目标。美国的参与对于为一般知识库做出贡献，建立对全球活动的认识以及促进国际合作至关重要。要求的资金将为一些高级邀请的美国讲师和国际组织委员会成员提供空中票价支持，但主要将为大约16名未能在没有此类支持的情况下参加的年轻研究人员提供支持。从教育的角度来看，这为年轻与会者与来自世界各地的同龄人建立联系，并体验到与热力学，运输属性，相位平衡等领域的最新研究趋势相关的最新观点，这是一个独特的机会。
