William H. Walker was an associate of Noyes in the Chemistry Department. Walker, perhaps from close contact with the Research Laboratory of Physical Chemistry, saw the desirability for a Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry and founded a laboratory of this type in 1908. Walker assumed charge of Chemical Engineering in 1912 and held that position until 1920. 

The formation of a Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry where industry could have specific problems worked on by a team of experts, feculty members, and research associates or research assistants, for a fee. This idea was broadened later to include all departments at M.I.T. by formation of the Division of Industrial Cooperation. The name of the latter was changed later to the Division of Sponsored... 

One of Lewis strong interests was in combustion, kilns, and gas production. In the early 1920 s, Robert T. Haslam, who had joined the faculty after World War I, chose this part of Lewis interest as his area of specialization and began with Robert P. Russell of the Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry to assemble material for a book. Fuels and their Combustion, an authoritative volume. This field was so important that Haslam considered the possibility of either a separate chemical engineering division in this area or perhaps a separate course. Fuel and gas engineering did, in fact, maintain a separate identity for a period of several years, but returned to chemical engineering in 1932. 

Simultaneously with the re-establishment of the Practice School, the Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry, which had been established in 1908 by Walker, was reactivated under R. E. Wilson. The contracts it had with industry rapidly increased, making necessary a continuously increasing staff. Throughout its existence in the Chemical Engineering Department this laboratory directed a percentage of any profit to so-called pro bono publico work. (In the period 1925-1935, the standard contract with industry was for 300 per man per month if the research... 

The success of the Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry caused M.LT. to expand the concept to cover an Institute-wide organization, known originally as the Division of Industrial Cooperation, which played the same role for industry in general that the Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry played for the chemical industry. Walker, who founded this laboratory, could not have foreseen how important the Research Laboratory for Applied Chemistry would become in the structure of M.LT. 

William H. Walker (1869-1934) who brought to this discipline the respect it should enjoy within the engineering curriculum (12,13). After an M.S. in Chemistry at M.I.T. (1887) and a doctorate at the University of Leipzig with Ostwald (1890), Noyes established the Research Laboratory of Physical Chemistry in 1903. William Walker, who had received his doctorate in 1892 at the University of Gottingen with Otto Wallach (Nobel Prize 1910), saw the importance of such a laboratory in chemical research and established in 1908 the Research Laboratory of Applied Chemistry. 

This procedure, Strike believes, was not tried by Eleusis. But his theory on the use of partial solubility is very old and founded. Taken, as we all are, by Eleusis unique genius, our beloved Bee TDK contracted a Philippine research laboratory to apply this proposal. Here is what they said ... 

WASP/TOXIWASP/WASTOX. The Water Quality Analysis Simulation Program (WASP, 3)is a generalized finite-difference code designed to accept user-specified kinetic models as subroutines. It can be applied to one, two, and three-dimensional descriptions of water bodies, and process models can be structured to include linear and non-linear kinetics. Two versions of WASP designed specifically for synthetic organic chemicals exist at this time. TOXIWASP (54) was developed at the Athens Environmental Research Laboratory of U.S. E.P.A. WASTOX (55) was developed at HydroQual, with participation from the group responsible for WASP. Both codes include process models for hydrolysis, biolysis, oxidations, volatilization, and photolysis. Both treat sorption/desorption as local equilibria. These codes allow the user to specify either constant or time-variable transport and reaction processes.

After the War, Micklethwait worked briefly in the research laboratory of Boots Pure Drug Company and then returned to Swanley Horticultural College, where she taught until 1921, being Principal for her last year there. From then until 1927, she compiled the Index for the second edition of Thorpe s Dictionary of Applied Chemistry, the series co-edited by her friend, Whiteley. She died on 25 March 1950, aged 83 years. 

The time has come for the sensors to be taken from the well-controlled environment of the research laboratory and applied to real conditions. This means that the sensors must be robust and able to stand rough conditions in terms of, for example, humidity, temperature, and exposure to organic solvents. When applying the sensors in direct contact with biological fluids biocompatibility will be a major problem.

Our results on the wettability of surfaces covered with highly fluorine-substituted alkyl groups stimulated several research laboratories to apply these surface properties to polymeric coating materials for textile fibers and fabrics as a means of imparting to them nonstaining, oil-, and water-resistant properties. Such products are becoming very prominent today and the contact angle is used for product control and trade specifications [1].

A very large number of different catalyst compositions have been tested, mostly at the Thermodynamics Research Laboratory of the University of Pennsylvania (15, 18). Since the purpose of these tests was to screen promising formulations as rapidly as possible, they were conducted under conditions designed to simulate the circumstances under which the catalysts would be applied. The greater number of the screening t sts were at catalyst temperatures of 150°C., space velocities of 100,000 hr.- (S.T.P.), acetylene concentrations of about 5 p.p.m., and pressures of 100 Ib./sq. in. gage air saturated with water vapor at this pressure was used, and at temperatures of 53°C. or 65°C. For appli-...
