Description:

Objective:

The goal of the CPAS Core Project is to bring design tools, developed in the Clean Process Advisory System Focus Area, to industry in the most useable form.

Approach:

Specific aspects of this work include:

Rationale:

Maintaining a central node for distribution and coordination of design tools developed under the CPAS Focus Area is the most effective way to supply them to industry. Quick distribution in a consistent fashion will provide the greatest opportunity to realize pollution prevention benefits from the collective efforts of all CPAS investigators. The CPAS Core Activities project provides a central node of staff and resources for distribution of design tools.
