"PARTNERING FOR SHARED SOLUTIONS TO COMMON ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS"
at
Universidade Católica Portuguesa

Hosting
LEADOUT Project
in Collaboration

On 8 & 9 September 2005,
the Centro Para Prevenção da Poluição (C3P) and the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration (NASA) hosted a technical workshop at the
Universidade Católica in Lisbon, Portugal. The two-day workshop provided
an excellent forum to showcase innovative and emerging pollution
prevention technologies, share lessons learned, and identify new joint
opportunities. In total, 133 individuals from 9 countries attended the
technical workshop. More than 30 international scientists, technologists,
and engineering experts presented PowerPoint slides on topics ranging from
advanced coatings and coating removal technologies to fuel cells to
lead-free electronics. This exchange of solutions provided direct and
tangible benefit to attendees from academia, defense, and commercial
industries, thereby helping meet the mission not only of C3P but key
workshop supporters such as the Luso-American Foundation for Development (FLAD)
and the Office of Naval Research Global (ONRG).
The workshop began with
welcoming comments from General (ret.) Pelagio
Castelo Branco, C3P Director General. Gen.
Branco highlighted those partnerships C3P has begun to form with
manufacturers, industry associations, universities, and testing and
engineering centers of excellence throughout the European Union. Ms. Olga
Dominguez, Deputy Assistant Administrator for Infrastructure, Management,
and Headquarters Operations at NASA, discussed how C3P fits into NASA’s
desire to benefit from international scientific collaborations. Prof.
Humberto Rosa, Secretary of State for the Environment, highlighted the
importance of C3P in providing innovative ideas to better enable
Portuguese development and global competition.
At the workshop, the
Israeli Users' Association of Advanced Technologies in Electronics (ILTAM)
signed a Cooperation Protocol with C3P. ILTAM is the first Israeli
organization to sign a protocol with C3P and represents an opportunity to
leverage key resources and knowledge on validating green technologies.
C3P is an international
organization that facilitates partnerships with the scientific & technical
community in Portugal, Europe, and the United States to identify and
evaluate less hazardous and sustainable materials for use in acquisition,
manufacturing and sustaining maintenance processes. The C3P is recognized
by Ministério do Ambiente de Portugal (Portuguese Ministry of Environment), and NASA per
the Joint Statement Between NASA and the Portuguese Ministry of the
Environment Regarding Cooperation in the Field of Environmental Pollution
Prevention Matters, signed on 18 September 2002.
Support for the workshop
was provided by FLAD, ONRG, Instituto de Soldadura e Qualidade (Welding
and Quality Institute, or ISQ), Instituto de Engenharia Mecânica e Gestão
Industrial (Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management Institute, or
INEGI), Associação Portuguesa das Empresas do Sector Eléctrico e
Electrónico (Portuguese Association of Electric and Electronic Industries,
or ANIMEE), Faculdade de Engenharia da Universidade do Porto (Engineering
Faculty of University of Porto, or FEUP), NASA and ITB, Inc.
