Assessment of Fossil Energy Materials Research Needs

An assessment was conducted to identify the needs and opportunities in materials research directed at applying new developments in materials science and engineering to fossil energy technologies. The assessment was conducted through literature review and discussions with knowledgeable industrial, academic and governmental personnel. Topics worthy of research which will provide significant benefits to fossil technologies include: ceramic membranes, catalyst supporters, protective coatings, diamond films, and many more.Assessment of Fossil Energy Materials Research Needs, was published 1994 under ISBN 9780788107603 and ISBN 0788107607.
