Opportunities
American Chemical Society
President Dr. Eli M. Pearce states: "Green
chemistry provides unique opportunities to change the way we operate within
the chemical enterprise. Green chemistry highlights chemistry's role as the
enabling science that advances humanity through its discoveries and
processes."
Applications
These patented technologies
protect several inorganic catalyst materials. Not only do they provide an
effective and valuable entre’ into the tremendous potential of "Green
Chemistry", they are also expected to find significant uses as
catalysts, catalyst carriers, adsorbents, and separating materials. |

On April 1, 2001, the National Institute of Advanced
Industrial Science and Technology began operations as the "new" AIST. The
AIST is a research organization that comprises 15 research institutes
previously under the former Agency of Industrial Science and Technology in
the Ministry of International Trade and Industry and the Weights and
Measures Training Institute.
AIST is Japan's largest public research organization with research
facilities and more than 3,200 employees across Japan.
AIST is seeking to license these technologies and assist
with their commercialization. A number of investment options are currently
under consideration.
Consideration will be provided to a range of financial, strategic, and
commercial investment partnerships.
