ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The Panel on Separation Technology for Industrial Recycling and Reuse would like to thank the presenters and participants in the two workshops that served as the principal data-gathering sessions for this study. Presenters at the October 1997 workshop on industrial separation technology were: Earl Beaver, Monsanto; David Carter, Allied Metals Corp.; Robert P. Foley, Illinois Institute of Technology; Donald R. Hubbard, Champion International; H.S. Muralidhara, Cargill, Inc.; Ray D. Peterson, Reynolds Metal Co.; Charles G. Scouten, Amoco; and Malcolm B. Wood, consultant. Presenters at the December 1997 workshop on separation technology research were: Thomas J. Bruno, National Institute of Standards and Technology; Edward C. Dowling, Cyprus Amax Minerals Company; Richard R. Klimpel, RK Associates; Garry R. Kenny, Magnetic Separation Systems, Inc.; Frank S. Knoll, Carpco, Inc.; H.S. Muralidhara, Cargill, Inc.; Elwin L. Rooy, Elwin Rooy and Associates; Anna Lee Y. Tonkovich, Pacific Northwest Laboratory; and Norman L. Weinberg, Electrosynthesis.
