January Technical Session
January 21, 2016 @ 11:30 AM - 4:00 PM
Greetings STLE Members and Friends!
Please join fellow STLE members and friends for the 4th educational seminar for the 2015-2016 season! The November meeting was BOOMING with over 60 attendees – Thanks to all attendees and all of our speakers who gave talks on chlorinated paraffin replacements, and for those who stayed for our first STEM committee meeting!
VGP 2016 Update
In 2013, the EPA issued an updated Vessel General Permit which authorizes discharges incidental to the normal operation of non-military and non-recreational vessels greater than or equal to 79 feet in length. These vessels are to use an EAL in all oil to sea interfaces unless technically infeasible. Our January meeting will kick off with a VGP update from industry expert Darren Lesinski of Total Specialties USA Inc. And to keep those EALs performing at their best, we will learn about a special dehydrator from Evan Sohodski of Compact Membrane Systems Inc. Finally, we will get a look at some exciting research done by one of our Philly STLE scholarship winners, Jonathon Chambers of the University of Maryland, on magnetorheological fluids.
Our January meeting will be laudable, so don’t miss out on an opportunity to learn, grow and network with fellow industry professionals! Send your confirmation now to reserve a spot!
