VIRGINIA TECH WINS TWO DOE AWARDS

摘要

The U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) has announced a 3 million dollars award to Virginia Tech and to West Virginia University to establish a Center for Advanced Separation Technologies (CAST). This award follows on the heels of another DoE award to Virginia Tech to demonstrate the commercial potential of new coal-production techniques developed by university researchers, officials said. Virginia Tech's partnership with West Virginia University to create CAST is based on both universities sustaining long histories of strong research and teaching programs in mining and minerals engineering.
