Research and development needed

However, it was the availability of large quantities of byproduct sulfur combined with the energy crisis of the early 1970 s which stimulated the research and development needed to make sulfur-asphalt technology a commercial reality. The need to dispose of large potential tonnages of sulfur and the need to find alternative new materials to increasingly expensive petroleum-based asphalt spurred interest and research by many organizations.

Several field tests of injectivity and of various types of surfactant-based mobility control for gas flooding have been reported in the literature. These are briefly reviewed for clues to possible future directions for the technology and as a guide to the research and development needed for achieving technical success and commercialization of surfactant-based mobility control for gas flooding.

Contrary to the SOFC, the fuel is not diluted in the DAFC anode by water, because water is formed on the cathode. This simplifies water management and balance-of-plant, and the moderate operating temperature is better for fast start-up and shut-down while allowing for a wider compatibility of construction materials in general. At present, the DAFC fuel cell is much less mature than the PEM or the SOFC, and more research and development needs to be done in this field. 

Chapter 81 through Chapter 83 are included to provide insight into a representative selection of application types. Space constraints, the complexity of human performance, and the great variety of tasks that can be considered limit the level of detail with which such material can be reasonably presented. Work in all application areas is now benefiting from computer-based tools this is the theme of Chapter 84. The section concludes with a look to the future (Chapter 85), including a summary of selected limitations, identification of some corresponding research and development needs, and speculation regarding the nature of the anticipated evolution of the field.

Decontamination is defined as the process of removing or neutralizing a hazard from the environment, property, or life form. The principal objectives of this process are to prevent further harm and optimize the chance for full clinical recovery or restoration of the object exposed to Ae dangerous hazard. The triage process is the initial step taken to meet the primary objectives of a disaster response, which involves sorting the injured by priority and determining the best utilization of available resources (e.g., personnel, equipment, medications, ambulances, and hospital beds). This chapter includes a review of decontamination and mass triage with an emphasis on the research and development needs in these areas of disaster response.
