Support for Young Investigators to Participate in the 5th International Symposium on Supercritical Fluids

摘要：teja， Amyn S.Georgia tech .本申请申请资金支持年轻研究者（主要是研究生）参加将于2000年4月8-12日在亚特兰大举行的第五届超临界流体研讨会。专题讨论会有一个独特的重点：超临界流体在应对可持续发展挑战方面的重要性。以前从未有过此类会议专门讨论这一重要领域。此外，会议将跨越许多领域，并将来自分离、热力学、分析化学、环境科学和过程工程社区的人们聚集在一起。历届研讨会分别于1988年在法国尼斯、1991年在美国波士顿、1994年在德国斯特拉斯堡和1997年在日本仙台举行。因此，研讨会将在9年后重返美国。如上所述，随着新千年的到来，2000年会议将不同于以往的会议，并将集中讨论与可持续性和环境有关的挑战。它还将更加注重跨学科，将背景各异但兴趣互补的工程师和科学家聚集在一起。另一项创新将是让从事该技术分析应用的科学家参与进来。

ABSTRACTCTS-0071178Teja, Amyn S.Georgia Tech.This proposal requests funds to support the participation of young investigators (primarily graduate students) in the 5th Symposium of Supercritical Fluids to be held in Atlanta on April 8-12, 2000. The Symposium has a unique focus: the importance of supercritical fluids in meeting the challenges of sustainable development. No previous meeting of this kind has been devoted exclusively to this important field. In addition, the meeting will cut across many areas, and will bring together people from the separations, thermodynamics, analytical chemistry, environmental sciences, and process engineering communities. Past Symposia were held in: Nice (France) in 1988, Boston (USA) in 1991, Strasbourg (Germany) in 1994, and Sendai (Japan) in 1997. The Symposium will therefore return to the USA after nine years. As mentioned above, the 2000 meeting, in keeping with the advent of the new millennium, will differ from previous meetings and will focus on challenges associated with sustainability and the environment. It will also have a greater interdisciplinary focus, brining together engineers and scientists with diverse backgrounds but complementary interests. Yet another innovation will be the inclusion of scientists working in analytical applications of the technology.
