Applied technology needs, overview

A limited overview of the process chemistry used at these sites is presented. This paper will also attempt to bridge, at least partly, the gap between ongoing fundamental plutonium research and development and applied technology needs. We believe it is important to bridge this gap, since a continuous flow of knowledge about plutonium chemistry from academic and government laboratories to the plant is necessary and beneficial... 

Hence, catalysis may be considered as an enabling technology for this transition and, for this reason, it is necessary to better understand the limitations and possibilities in this field. We need to define future necessary directions of R D and the needs of fundamental and applied knowledge. In other words, there is the need to develop a roadmap for catalytic processes based on renewable feedstock. This book aims to provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art on which such a research agenda can be based. 

During the first 1-5 months it is necessary for experts and NCPCs to get an overview of industrial processes and technologies applied in the company to be able to set up a detailed work plan for the implementation of ChL. Besides that, presentations to the top management and awareness raising for the staff of the company and other involved partners need to be undertaken. 

The Chemistry of Polymers is a concise, easy-to-read, inexpensive introduction to the subject and fulfils the need for a polymer text wrifF from an applied angle. It covers the basics of polymer chemistry while emphasising the practical applications and is essential for those who wish to acquire a rapid overview of the field. This book covers the. basics of polymer synthesis, characterisation, reaction kinetics and materials science, as well as important specialised topics such as polymer degradation, polymers and pollution, and a variety of technological developments...
