This grant is to provide travel support for junior US-based academic researchers to attend the 4th North American Symposium on Chemical Reaction Engineering (NASCRE 4) in Houston, TX, on March 10-13, 2019. The scientific theme for NASCRE 4 is "Making Boundaries Malleable: Advancing Reaction Engineering through New Materials, Unique Chemistries and Advanced Computation". Meeting the world's demands for energy, food, water and medicine - in a sustainable way, while protecting the environment - requires development of new technologies and advanced materials, and computational science and engineering is a key enabler of these developments. The theme of this symposium is to capture the essential role that chemical reaction engineering (CRE) plays in addressing these challenges with both an acknowledgement of the core of the discipline (inside the boundary) and future directions (moving the boundary). The symposium will feature communications of recent research on CRE fundamentals, enabling technologies, and advanced materials, such as catalysts, membranes and solar cells.The technical program of NASCRE 4 will consist of plenary lectures, keynote lectures, presentations by invited young researchers, the Amundson and Aris award addresses, and oral and poster presentations. The plenary speakers, keynote speakers and invited young researchers were selected based on input from the organizing and scientific committees, with the goal of covering the diverse topics of the Symposium: Novel Reactors and Materials for Reaction Engineering and Process Intensification, Advancing Reaction Engineering through High Performance Computation, Fundamentals of Reaction Engineering, and Applications of Reaction Engineering. A unique feature of NASCRE 4 will be two workshops available for conference attendees: 1. Women in Engineering: Let's Break the Boundaries. 2. Laboratory Reactors. The meeting participants will benefit from state-of-the-art plenary talks and keynote lectures by leading experts in academia and industry, by exchanging the latest advances on frontier research subjects, and by debating controversial points with their peers in the CRE discipline, including gender diversity. The meeting will also provide an excellent opportunity for interaction and cooperation among industrial and academic researchers. This will be especially beneficial to the young industrial and academic researchers who will attend. The organizers expect to attract many graduate students, including women and members of under-represented groups, to the meeting that they may otherwise be unable to attend. These students will have an opportunity to interact with each other and with experienced researchers in the field, which will positively influence their professional development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这笔赠款将为美国初级学术研究人员提供差旅支持，以参加 2019 年 3 月 10 日至 13 日在德克萨斯州休斯顿举行的第四届北美化学反应工程研讨会 (NASCRE 4)。NASCRE 4 的科学主题是“使边界具有可塑性：通过新材料、独特化学和先进计算推进反应工程”。以可持续的方式满足世界对能源、食品、水和医药的需求，同时保护环境，需要开发新技术和先进材料，而计算科学和工程是这些发展的关键推动者。本次研讨会的主题是通过承认学科核心（边界内）和未来方向（移动边界）来抓住化学反应工程（CRE）在应对这些挑战中所发挥的重要作用。研讨会将重点交流CRE基础知识、使能技术和先进材料（例如催化剂、膜和太阳能电池）的最新研究成果。NASCRE 4的技术计划将包括全体演讲、主题演讲、受邀年轻研究人员的演讲、阿蒙森和阿里斯获奖感言以及口头和海报展示。全体会议发言人、主旨发言人和受邀年轻研究人员是根据组委会和科学委员会的意见选出的，目的是涵盖研讨会的不同主题：用于反应工程和过程强化的新型反应器和材料、通过高水平推进反应工程。性能计算、反应工程基础和反应工程应用。 NASCRE 4 的一个独特功能是为与会者提供两个研讨会： 1. 工程领域的女性：让我们打破界限。 2. 实验室反应器。 会议参与者将受益于学术界和工业界顶尖专家的最先进的全体会议和主题演讲，交流前沿研究课题的最新进展，并与 CRE 学科的同行辩论有争议的观点，包括性别多样性。此次会议也将为产业界和学术界研究人员提供互动与合作的绝佳机会。这对于参加会议的年轻工业和学术研究人员尤其有利。组织者希望吸引许多研究生，包括女性和代表性不足群体的成员，参加他们可能无法参加的会议。这些学生将有机会相互交流以及与该领域经验丰富的研究人员互动，这将对他们的专业发展产生积极影响。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过利用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响进行评估，被认为值得支持审查标准。
