Engineering Research Center for Hazardous Substance Control

加州大学洛杉矶分校将建立一个工程研究中心， 物质控制。 工程研究中心的目标是 有害物质控制是发展和应用基本的 工程概念和跨学科的系统方法， 有害物质控制。 这种系统方法考虑到 最大限度地减少有害物质的产生， 制造过程中，通过其处理，最终处置， 可能从封隔、运输和转化过程中释放出来， 环境，以及人类，动物或植物最终暴露于 这些毒素。 加州大学洛杉矶分校中心的研究将包括以下研究： 控制危险物质的新技术和未来技术 以及管理和修复站点的策略， 被有害物质污染。 初始整体系统 一级计划的重点将是污染地面的就地处理 水和土壤、焚烧系统和安全的处置残留物。 一个多方面的教育计划，在危险废物的影响， 本科生到博士后将是该中心的一个特色。 一 继续教育计划将包括一个证书课程， 有毒和有害材料的控制和管理。

UCLA will establish an Engineering Research Center on Hazardous Substance Control. The goal of the Engineering Research Center for Hazardous Substances Control is to develop and apply fundamental engineering concepts and an interdisciplinary systems approach to hazardous substances control. This systems approach considers the minimization of hazardous substances generation from their origin in a manufacturing process through their treatment, eventual disposal, possible release from containment, transport and transformation in the environment, and the eventual exposure of humans, animals, or plants to these toxins. Research in the UCLA Center will include studies of emerging and future technologies for the control of hazardous substances as well as strategies for managing and remediating sites already contaminated with hazardous substances. The initial overall systems level program thrusts will be in-situ treatment of contaminated ground water and soil, and incineration systems and secured disposal residuals. A multi-faceted educational program in hazardous wastes impacting undergraduates to postdoctorates will be a feature of the Center. A program in continuing education will include a Certificate Program in Toxic and Hazardous materials control and Management.
