ISEC13: Environmentally Benign Surface Engineering
Location: Governors V (Radisson Riverfront Hotel)
(Please check final room assignments on-site).
Session Description: Surface engineering offers both environmental and human health benefits in numerous applications. Increasingly important issues are the reclamation and recoating of expensive components and the safe use of human health-sensitive nanoparticle materials. This session focuses on the various applications of environmentally benign surface materials to improve sustainability, and the associated techniques aimed at minimizing adverse impacts on the environment and on human health. Papers will focus on the various aspects of environmental surface engineering such as green manufacturing and environmental sustainability, nanoparticle monitoring and measurement, materials and energy savings through increased product service life, recyclability, pollution minimization techniques, low environmental impact materials and processes, electromagnetic and radiofrequency radiation shielding, and current trends in health and safety.
