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.

小行星1624141 Panagiotopoulos该项目支持美国研究人员参加2016年5月在葡萄牙波尔图举行的产品和工艺设计性质和相平衡（PPEPPD）国际会议。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全球会议。 该奖项将为参加会议的高级和初级学术研究人员提供机票补贴，以促进科学思想的交流和化学研究这一重要领域的最新进展，重点关注热物理性质和相平衡数据，以降低成本并提高广泛的化学产品和工艺的效率。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工艺设计。会议将为初级和高级研究人员在热物理性质和相平衡测量和估计技术的前沿进行互动提供一个论坛，并确定替代能源和储存，天然气和石油上游和下游加工，制药和化妆品，海洋和盐水系统和过程，纳米技术和可持续性等日益增长的领域的挑战。PPEPPD的主要目标之一是为学术，政府和工业研究人员提供分子热力学（实验和计算）如何使现实世界的工业产品和工艺设计受益的互动。这些会议是来自世界各地的分子生物学家最重要的聚会-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。第14届PPEPPD国际组织委员会选定的主题包括分子热力学的两个基本方面（热力学和输运性质，表面，界面和限制效应，量子计算和力场，分子和多尺度模拟），以及应用方面（产品和工艺工程，天然气和石油下游和上游工艺，替代能源和储存，环境工艺，这些领域包括：可持续性和风险管理、碳捕获和储存、药品和化妆品、食品加工、农用化学品和生物质、海洋和盐水系统、材料和纳米技术。PPEPPD的目的是分享最先进的技术，以进一步推动产品和工艺设计，这将推动化学和相关行业的全球经济增长，并允许模拟新的分离工艺，以满足更低的温室气体排放目标。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。申请的资金将为一些受邀的美国高级讲师和国际组织委员会成员提供机票支持，但主要为大约16名年轻研究人员提供支持，他们如果没有这种支持就无法参加。从教育的角度来看，这为年轻的与会者提供了一个独特的机会，可以与来自世界各地的同行建立联系，并体验全球最新的热力学，传输特性，相平衡等领域的研究趋势，这些领域与广泛的化学过程和产品有关。
