This grant supports a workshop to be held in Arlington, VA in January 2012 on Sustainable Chemistry. The workshop aims to identify key areas where fundamental research in the core disciplines (Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering) is needed to advance the goal of increasing the sustainability of chemical processing and manufacturing. This is expected to include strategies to reduce or eliminate the use of rare elements and other scarce materials, reduce the use of freshwater and energy, and increase the feasibility of recovery/recycling.The workshop will explore multidisciplinary approaches and articulate the need for a systems-level view of sustainability, including science, technology, economics and societal impact. This is likely to require new educational approaches to train the next generation of researchers to incorporate such thinking into their research design. The added value created by funding research efforts that incorporate investigators with different perspectives and from different disciplines will be apparent. The broad recommendations to the scientific community as well as specific examples will be incorporated into a widely available report.

该赠款支持将于2012年1月在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿举行的有关可持续化学的研讨会。该研讨会旨在确定需要核心学科（化学，化学工程，材料科学和工程）基础研究的关键领域，以促进提高化学处理和制造的可持续性的目标。预计这将包括减少或消除稀有元素和其他稀缺材料的使用，减少淡水和能源的使用，并增加恢复/回收利用的可行性。该研讨会将探索多学科方法，并表达对系统水平的可持续性视野，包括科学，技术，经济学和经济学，经济学和社会影响。这很可能需要新的教育方法来培训下一代研究人员，以将这种思维融入他们的研究设计中。资助研究工作所创造的附加价值将显而易见，这些研究人员将具有不同观点和不同学科的研究人员融合在一起。对科学界以及具体示例的广泛建议将纳入广泛可用的报告中。
