Innovative learning technologies

What is RTCI all about It is a conference intended to provide participants the chance to learn more about how industrial research is conducted and managed, network with minority scientists and scientific managers and learn about key factors for success, appreciate the value of team research and its role in bringing about innovation and technology development, evaluate their interview and resume-writing skills, and understand the value of diversity in a corporate culture. The conference is highly rated each year by participants and self-described as one of the more informative conferences many have attended.

A sensible approach to innovation in microbial fouling control technology can be simply stated Observe nature. Try to understand it. Try to imitate it. Explain the copy. There is much more to learn about natural microbial fouling control. Surely, there are many important clues still to be discovered. 

One barrier to the advancement in PAT across various industries is the tendency for each industry to be insular and not necessarily look beyond its walls to see parallel science done that can be applicable in their own environments. Often the technological advancements in terms of new technologies have been discovered in disparate industries, and hence go unnoticed in new area. There is a biennial review of process analytical chemistry in Analytical Chemistry that presents a broad view of advances being made and serves as a good resource. In looking towards the literature and discussions from other industries, one can learn of innovations that can be adapted to new problems without the need for completely new developments single handedly. 

In addition to the legacy of Lehigh University (as well as Princeton University and Prof. C. A. Floudas), B. D. l reus and M. L. Luvben want to acknowledge DuPont and its culture of technological innovation and excellence. We have had the opportunity to work on and learn about many different processes, and we have tried in this book to synthesize in some coordinated way part of our experiences. Most of... 

THE ENTRY INTO PETROCHEMICALS Because the early 1950s were a period of rapid innovation in polymer/petrochemical technology, Hercules was able to build a new learning base in that industry and become a first mover in one of the most versatile of the new commodities, polypropylene (PP). Its strategy was excellent. The company worked closely with European inventors and companies that, like Hercules, had not been involved in the new technology s wartime development. After pioneering the invention of a new process for phenol resins, it joined with Britain s Distillers Company to commercialize and license the process. Its first plant came on-stream in 1952.4...
