After a successful conference recently in Washington DC on challenges for surface finishing technologies in the defense arena, the Pentagon's Strategic Environment RD Program (SERDP) is planning a follow up session this fall with a more specific focus on applying commercial finishing successes to "clean" technologies for defense uses. The event will be part of SERDP's larger annual Environmental Technology and Research Symposium, which typically attracts more than 800 attendees, and will focus on best approaches for reducing potentially hazardous materials in defense weapons systems and facilities. The event will invite participation from key industry experts from the AESF, aerospace, automotive and other communities to present and provide various perspectives on how emerging commercial materials and processes can be modified and used by the Department of Defense.
