• Completed seventeen professional development seminars on recent technical developments, research management, and effective teaching methods.
• Developed graduate seminar in system modeling and computer calculation. Directed student seminar projects assisting nine graduate students with masters degree research.
• Organized two sessions at national meetings of the Fine Particle Society. Served as officer in the Nebraska Section of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers.

• Contributed elutriation and attrition chapters to a DOE guidebook about sulfur control in fluidized bed combustors. Over five hundred copies of the report were distributed to DOE laboratories, universities, and commercial research facilities.
• Coordinated long-term (100 and 1000 hour) studies in the pilot plant combustor. Planned installation and operation of experimental equipment for the biology and material science divisions taking part in the study. The studies demonstrated a 40 to 60 percent savings in limestone used by the fluidized bed combustor.
