Preface
Purpose of This Book
The 1990s is the decade of the environment. In
the United States and throughout the world, there is
widespread recognition that a renewed commitment
to environmental protection is vital for maintaining
both quality of life and economic vitality.
Pan of this renewed commitment is seen in the
rapid growth of research and development (R&D) re-
lated to environmental technology. By environmen-
tal technology, we mean any set of techniques that
combine instruments or machines with human action
for the purpose of creating reproducible outcomes
relevant to environmental protection. Under this
definition, environmental technology is intentionally
broad. It ranges from monitoring technology for
detecting trace gases in rural areas, to improving in-
dustrial painting systems that reduce waste, to
developing biodegradable detergents for washing
clothes.
Creating the scientific and engineering
knowledge base for continued advances in environ-
mental technology is a demanding task requiring
multi-disciplinary approaches, sophisticated ex-
perimental equipment, and advanced computing
capabilities. As a result, the environmental R&D
communitylike other researchers in modem
science and engineering has had to seek out ways
to better institutionalize arrangements for leveraging
scarce R&D resources and rapidly transferring new
knowledge into practical applications.
The cooperative university and industry research
center has become a major force in the conduct of
multidisciplinary generic research with potential
practical applications. There are more than 200 en-
vironmental technology cooperative research centers
in the United States alone. More than 100 of them
run annual budgets in excess of $1 million.
These centers represent a pool that can enable
American industry and government to meet their
needs for environmental technology and knowledge
in a more cost efficient manner. Yet because there
has been no comprehensive directory of such
centers, managers have often found themselves
"reinventing the wheel."
Recognizing that the lack of a comprehensive
guide to these centers inhibited their use by the en-
vironmental and business communities, the Office of
Cooperative Environmental Management, U.S. En-
vironmental Protection Agency (EPA) funded
Foresight Science & Technology Incorporated to
catalogue all environmental technology centers in
the United States. The Directory of Cooperative
University and Industry Environmental Research
and Development Centers presents the results of this
study.
This Directory enables users to:
Locate relevant expertise and technology at
centers
Find names of contact points at centers
Read an overview of the activities of each center
Assist in developing additional industry and
government participation in centers
Increase cooperation among centers through
greater awareness of others working in environ-
mental R&D.
Organization of the Directory
The Directory is organized into six sections.
The "Preface" introduces the Directory.
The "Overview" provides an introduction to
cooperative university and industry R&D centers
and how they can assist in the development of
knowledge and technology for environmental protec-
tion.
"Background on Cooperative University and
Industry R&D Centers" provides a brief history of
centers in the United States and discusses features
that help make them successful.
"The Directory of Cooperative University and
Industry Environmental R&D Centers" contains
detailed data on 114 centers with budgets hi excess
of $1 million and/or EPA support Information in-
cludes a brief description of the center and data on
size and scope, major areas of expertise, activities

Overview:
The Utility of Cooperative R&D Centers for
Developing Environmental Technology
Environmental technology is any set of techni-
ques combining instruments or machines with
human action for the purpose of creating
reproducible outcomes relevant to environmental
protection. It is important to recognize that under
this definition, not all environmental technological
improvements result from R&D.
As in other technologies, innovations can
emerge from a variety of sources. Especially where
small, incremental innovations are involved, it is the
people with extensive hands-on experience who
often generate them. Thus, in manufacturing, ways
of using machine adjustments to eliminate wasteful
use of raw materials are often first seen by produc-
tion workers. The ability to stimulate such innova-
tion is one of the arguments supporting quality
control circles in factories. Other innovations come
from "garage shop" inventors. Here an individual's
insight, for whatever reason, enables one to see a
solution that has escaped others.
Despite the multiple sources of technological in-
novation, it remains true that in today's increasingly
complex industrial order, systematic R&D looms
ever important as the driver of technology.
Why Centers?
R&D has always played a role in technological
innovation. But prior to World War n, little attention
was paid to how to best organize linkages between
the R&D community and the end-users of informa-
tion generated in industry and government.
Until about 20 years ago, two models for or-
ganizing the link between R&D and R&D users
predominated university and industry.
In the universities, the traditional method for
conducting R&D involved a single investigator or a
small team working on a project The problems
being studied were selected based primarily on the
intellectual curiosity of the researchers. It was a mat-
ter of chance whether anything relevant for practical
application would emerge. Researchers or teams
would pursue work on their own, sharing the
knowledge they gained through publication hi the
scientific and engineering literature, papers at profes-
sional meetings, and informal correspondence.
Transfer of knowledge into practical applications
would take place only if someone from industry or
government happened to become aware of the re-
search results.
Although practical issues did not greatly in-
fluence the selection of research topics, and despite
the fact that technology transfer was not viewed as a
major concern, this model did produce impressive
results, particularly when R&D funds were plentiful.
It enabled a diversified, multifaceted research agen-
da to go forward. American researchers, pursuing
their own ideas, came to dominate world science and
engineering as reflected in the capture of Nobel
Prizes. One result was that a great supply of "intel-
lectual seed corn" was generated. When tapped by
entrepreneurs from both large and small companies,
this knowledge provided the basis for industries
such as biotechnology and photonics.
Although the traditional model remains an im-
portant part of American R&D, two problems have
limited its utility during the latter part of the 20th
century. First, the cost of conducting R&D has ex-
panded greatly as sophisticated experimental and
computational tools have become necessities. The
capital to purchase these tools can often be found
only when the researchers are brought together to
share the equipment. Second, the explosion of
knowledge generated under the traditional model
created a situation in which researchers had to in-
creasingly specialize to push the frontiers of their
fields. Yet specializing means that many research is-
sues can only be addressed by building larger inter-
disciplinary teams which rely on cooperation and
coordination for their success.
In industry too, most work was conducted by
single investigators or small teams. However, in con-
trast to university research, because the work was
vu
-------
Overview
supported by a company, R&D generally focused on
specific problems. Larger companies often had a
two-tier laboratory structure. Most labs were at-
tached to specific production units and worked on
quick turn-around solutions. A central corporate lab
would focus on longer-term problems relating to
new product development. But even at the central
lab level, funding was driven by people in the com-
pany looking for solutions to their problem. There
were few places (like Bell Laboratories) where com-
panies supported high-risk, long-term, open-ended
basic research.
Although transfer of the resulting knowledge
into practical application was less of a problem in in-
dustry, this R&D model had other weaknesses. Most
importantly, the focus on shorter-term problems
meant that there was little time to explore more
generic research issues which might lead to
breakthroughs. Nor were there many opportunities
to pursue promising lines of research, because once
a specific problem was solved, the scientist or en-
gineer was expected to take up the next item on the
company's already full agenda.
By the 1960s, it was clear that what was needed
was an institutional format which could bring
together the broader, more generic R&D focus of
the university and the applications orientation of in-
dustry. At the same time, this institutional format
had to be able to aggregate resources to make it
feasible to buy the expensive tools and support the
larger teams needed to conduct larger R&D projects.
The cooperative university/industry R&D center
provides this institutional format Drawing financial
support from academia, industry, and often govern-
ment, the center is able to leverage scarce resources.
By conducting a multiproject research agenda in a
generic problem area, the center brings together a
critical mass of researchers. Industrial participants
help shape the center's research agenda, contributing
to its relevance for subsequent practical applications.
At the same time, the presence of the center in a
university and its multiple sponsorship helps ensure
that the research conducted is more generic than that
found in company laboratories.
The results are:
A synergistic environment for the generation of
knowledge so that results from one project can be
rapidly shared among the research teams at the
center and the center's sponsors; and,
A more rapid transfer of knowledge into practical
applications as industrial participants use the
R&D results to gain a return on their investment
in the center.
Definition and Functions of Cooperative
University and Industry Environmental
Research and Development Centers
For purposes of the Directory, we have included
centers which have four distinguishing features:
1. The research program is primarily carried out by a
university or a cooperating set of universities.
2. The primary user communities for the results of
the center's research program are private
companies, governments, or nonprofit
environmental organizations.
3. The sources of research funding and in-kind
support include private companies from the user
communities, which have self-identified needs
for new environmental knowledge and
technology, but may also include government
and other private sector sponsors.
4. The ultimate objective of the center is to transfer
the scientific, engineering, and technical
knowledge it develops to its user communities.
Centers meeting these criteria serve three impor-
tant functions in support of the environment:
1. They develop technology which solves specific
environmental problems.
2. They generate knowledge needed to support
further advances in environmental technology.
3. They develop environmentally progressive
technology which enables industry to avoid the
traditional antagonism of environmental
protection versus financial reward.
These functions are not unique to these centers.
Research conducted by EPA laboratories, through
traditional academic methods or by industry teams,
can also serve these functions. Yet what these
centers bring is an organizational structure for R&D
management and the conduct of research and tech-
nology transfer which has been explicitly designed
to fulfill these functions.
Benefits of New Environmental Knowledge
and Technology and Their Dissemination
Three major benefits result from new environ-
mental knowledge and technology:
1. Increased capability to address environmental
concerns
2. Expansion of scientific and engineering
knowledge
VIU
-------
Overview
3. Opportunities to transcend the traditional
antagonism between environmental protection
and economic growth.
First, technological innovations can help solve
some of our most pressing environmental problems.
Many environmental laws incorporate the notion
that polluters must use the best available technology
to monitor and mitigate environmental problems. As
innovations are developed, the quality of environ-
mental protection is thereby enhanced. The results
of this approach are everywhere. For example, over
the past two decades, smokestack scrubbers have al-
most entirely eliminated traditional black cloud in-
dustrial pollution in the United States.
Second, environmental R&D contributes to the
science and engineering knowledge needed for fu-
ture technological innovations. R&D relevant to en-
vironmental technology is a multidisciplinary
matter. As a result, background knowledge and tech-
nological innovations result from a two-way interac-
tion between environmental specialists and other
researchers. Ideas generated in nonenvironmental
scientific and engineering disciplines are applied in
new ways to address environmental issues. These ap-
plications, in turn, create new insights which cross-
fertilize other parts of science, engineering, and
technology.
The interactive manner in which advances in
knowledge relevant to environmental technology are
made can be seen in the following example.
Physicists and chemists have explored the changes
that high energy particles can introduce in materials.
Building on this basic research, The Drinking Water
Research Center at Florida International University
recently developed a new approach to removing pol-
lution. The center built a pilot plant which uses an
electron accelerator to bombard waste water with
high energy electrons. The plant can treat ap-
proximately 175,000 gallons of water and waste per
day.
Major advances in nonenvironmental
knowledge can, in turn, result from efforts to solve
specific environmental problems. One example with
respect to monitoring comes from the Superfund Pro-
gram. During clean-up efforts, workers were
hampered by the behavior of pollutants in water.
Some wastes clumped together and formed what are
called dense nonaqueous pollutant layers
(DNAPLS), which sink to the bottom of lakes and
streams. Other pollutants are not dense (NAPLS),
and thus float on top. This discovery has heralded a
new body of knowledge and research on the interac-
tion, transport, and fate of these layers.
Third, and finally, from a practical applications
standpoint, generic R&D can help move us beyond
the traditional tradeoffs between environmental
protection and economic productivity and profits.
One example of economically beneficial pollution
control comes from the metal plating industry. EPA
regulations required companies to recycle waste
water which contained large levels of cyanide.
Cyanide was a particular problem for the jewelry in-
dustry. The industry's initial response was that
profits and productivity would suffer due to environ-
mental protection. The development of a recovery
process using ion transfer technology changed that
attitude. Companies discovered that the process
enabled recovery and reuse of previously lost gold,
silver, and platinum, resulting in increased revenues.
Another example of a spinoff benefit for in-
dustry from environmental technology can be found
in the auto industry. Researchers at EPA's Atmos-
pheric Research and Exposure Assessment Lab at
Research Triangle Park were working on the effects
of acid rain on metal corrosion. In the process, they
discovered new ways to analyze and track the be-
havior of materials as they weather. After learning
about these techniques, Ford Motor Company used
the Federal Technology Transfer Act of 1986 to con-
tract with the lab for a study on the lifetime of
automobile coatings and paints.
To get such benefits to their user community,
cooperative environmental R&D centers use a
variety of passive and active techniques. Those most
widely used are "passive" in the sense that the center
or its participants make information available but do
not actively seek out parties who may be interested
in the information. Examples of passive technology
transfer include the traditional academic methods of
giving papers at professional meetings, publishing
research results in the scientific and engineering
literature, and patenting. (When centers such as the
Texas Agricultural Experiment Station at Texas
A&M University file their patents, the patent serves
as the information disseminator). Newsletters, such
as mat produced annually at the Center for Complex
Flow Measurements at Case Western University, are
also commonly used passive techniques. Annual
reports serve a similar function.
To some extent, all centers also use "active"
technology transfer techniques. Obtaining and keep-
ing industrial and government sponsors is an active
outreach and liaison effort. Centers such as the En-

vironmental Research Center at the University of
Nevada, Las Vegas hold symposia and meetings on
topics related to their research agenda. Many
centers, such as the Center for Research in Water
Resources at the University of Texas in Austin, have
active programs of short courses. Perhaps the most
aggressive active outreach is seen at centers af-
filiated with land grant institutions. For example,
Michigan State University's Pesticide Research Ser-
vice uses the Cooperative Extension Service as a
technology transfer tool for reaching one of its user
communities.

Sources of Center Funding
Funding for university and industry cooperative
environmental R&D centers typically comes from
organizations that benefit from the research con-
ducted or those interested in stimulating the develop-
ment of environmental knowledge and technology.
The three primary sources of funds are the Federal
Government, state governments, and industry. Other
sources include the host university, foundations, and
nonprofit organizations representing industries with
environmental concerns or citizens promoting en-
vironmental issues. Additional funds are obtained
through licensing technology developed at the center
as well as fees charged for publications, educational
and training courses, and meetings.

Technical Areas of Expertise of Cooperative
University and Industry Environmental
R&D Centers
Because of the interdisciplinary character of en-
vironmental R&D, a vast range of expertise is found
at the various centers. This expertise is utilized
across the R&D and product development spectrum.
The most prevalent activities of centers are basic
and applied research. Product development (includ-
ing plant and animal breeding) is also conducted at
many centers. As part of these activities, many
centers have developed unique facilities and labs.
For example, the Geophysics Institute at the Univer-
sity of Alaska at Fairbanks operates the Poker Flat
Rocket Range. Crocker Nuclear Laboratory at the
University of California at Davis operates 60 air
sampling stations across the U.S. The Waste
Management and Research Consortium at New
Mexico State University runs a waste isolation pilot
plant.
Supplementing core R&D activities are services
for business and government. A few centers, such as

cialization. Other centers, such as the Institute of

Relation to Environmental Concerns
The research projects of cooperative environ-
mental R&D centers can be related to specific en-
vironmental concerns. For purposes of this
Directory, nine specific focuses have been distin-
guished. The Subject Index helps readers locate
centers working in each of these specific areas. As
most centers conduct work that falls into more than
one area, centers are listed under each relevant
category.
Hazardous Substances. Hazardous substance
concerns all aspects of the EPA Superfund program
as well as smaller cleanup efforts. Among the re-
search areas included are: health effects, risk assess-
ment, alternative technology, fate and transport, and
ecological risk.
Solid Waste. This area relates to the EPA Solid
Waste Office and is concerned with wastes from the
cradle to the grave. Included are the development of
better management techniques for handling wastes,
as well as new ways to minimize their production.
Other topics are: human health effects, risk assess-
ment, land disposal, recycling, waste treatment,
waste minimization, municipal solid waste, and
transport and fate.
Air Quality. Related to the EPA division with the
same name, research in this area is concerned with
both outdoor and indoor air quality. Research
projects may relate regulatory efforts such as the Na-
tional Air Quality Standards (NAQS) and the New
Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for new
plants; or more generic efforts involving hazardous
air pollutants, mobile source pollutants, indoor air
quality, stratospheric ozone, global warming, acid
deposition and acid rain, combustion, and air radia-
tion.
Water Quality. Research in this area involves en-
vironmental concerns in both fresh and salt water.
Among the topics are oil spills, waste water treat-
ment technology, ground water, health effects of
drinking water contaminants, drinking water technol-
ogy, and marine estuaries and lakes. Also included
are aquaculture and studies related to marine plants
and animals.
Pesticides and Toxicology. Again related to the
concerns of an EPA division, this area includes the
effects of pesticides and toxic substances on the en-
vironment and human health. Among the relevant
topics are biotechnology, test methods development,
human health, asbestos, exposure monitoring,
ecological fate and transport, ecotoxicology, and pes-
ticide disposal.
Agriculture and Ecology. While overlapping
somewhat with areas listed above, R&D under this
category focuses on the monitoring and/or improve-
ment of agriculture. Ecological studies include
general studies, wildlife management, endangered
species, etc. Restoration issues are also included.
Industrial Technology. Research in this area re-
lates to environmentally sensitive innovations in
process technology or products. Examples of topics
include better controls for industrial processes, new
techniques such as applications of lasers to cross-cut-
ting monitoring technology, and new or improved
energy sources (such as solar, wind, and geothermal
energy generation systems).
Cross-Cutting Human Health. While the focus
of identifiable impacts on human health from par-
ticular environmental concerns is dealt with under
-------

other topics, this area includes more general studies
on environmental health. Topics range from health
effects in the home to occupational environmental
health to human genome studies.
Public Awareness. Studies in this area involve
the assessment of what specific groups or the public
in general know about the environment and of their
concerns about the environment. Social scientific re-
search related to environmental issues also falls
within this area, as do projects involving the develop-
ment of ways to increase awareness of environmen-
tal issues and to avoid or mitigate environmental
problems. Land-use studies are included as pan of
avoiding or mitigating environmental problems.

Background on Cooperative University and
Industry R&D Centers
What Is a Center?
Cooperative university/industry environmental
R&D centers are generally recognized by a set of
basic structures and attributes which identify the cen-
ter as a separate and distinct institution. Thus, they
differ from an informal team or area of emphasis
within an academic department or interdepartmental
cooperative program.
Structurally, each center has independent leader-
ship/ management, research, and support com-
ponents which identify it as a distinct organizational
entity. Leadership is commonly exercised by a noted
scientist or engineer who serves as the center's direc-
tor. The director is frequently supported by deputy
directors for administration and for industrial and
government liaison. The research components may
take a variety of organizational formats, ranging
from floating project-specific teams to dedicated
labs for various studies to departments distinguished
by area of expertise. Regardless of the format, staff-
ing consists of specialists from all professional
levels. Often there is a core of Ph.D. level scientists
and engineers who have joint appointments both in
the center and in an academic department These in-
dividuals are supplemented by senior Ph.D. level re-
searchers and fellows with Ph.D.s who hold
appointments only in the center. In-house staff may
be supplemented by researchers on loan from in-
dustrial and government sponsors of the center. A
staff of masters- and baccalaureate-level technicians
is employed by the center to support the research
program. Finally, a cadre of graduate and, less fre-
quently, undergraduate students from the university
rounds off the research staff. The support com-
ponents consist of the personnel normally found in
any major research entity. Departments are estab-
lished to handle accounting, fund-raising, main-
tenance, etc.
From an attributes standpoint, the distinct re-
search focus of these centers provides an intellectual
cohesiveness to the institution. Associated with this
focus are:
Research projects within the general research
focus
Research personnel from different science, en-
gineering, and business-related disciplines
Research facilities and equipment sufficient to
support both single and multiple project needs
Administrative, maintenance, and other support
personnel and facilities capable of supporting the
R&D program
Funding to support current activities, plan future
activities, and support marketing to obtain future
funds
Private and public sector efforts to learn of the
outcomes of the R&D being conducted.
Cooperative R&D centers are often confused
with R&D consortia. While the two are similar, they
differ in terms of the integration and concentration
of their research and the make-up of their sponsors.
Consortia tend to concentrate on a small number
of R&D projects that are well integrated. Because of
their tight focus, all consortia participants are equal-
ly interested in all of the program activities. One of
the best known consortia is the Microelectronics and
Computer Corporation (MCC) in Austin, Texas.
The industrial sponsors of consortia encourage a
focus on technology that can be shared by all par-
ticipants without adverse competitive impacts on
any of them. Typically, the focus is on generic R&D
that leads to improvements in production technol-
ogy. Although production technology is key for
productivity enhancement, competition is not
generally based on manufacturing prowess. Still,
companies need state-of-the-art production in order
to be able to sustain product competition. Conduct-
ing such R&D through the consortium enables the
sponsors to reduce the costs of obtaining state-of-the-
art manufacturing capability. Establishing the
feasibility of a new product line may be another
focus. By conducting the higher risk, longer-term
feasibility study at the consortium, the risk in new
product development for the members is reduced.
Further, where feasibility is established, the
knowledge needed for rapid product development is
XUl
-------
Background
available. Once feasibility is established, the project
is commonly terminated, and the results are trans-
ferred to the consortium's members. They do the ac-
tual product development, with the result that
several proprietary variants emerge on the market.
A consequence of the tighter focus is seen in the
funding of consortia. Because the sponsors are
predominantly from private industry, there is tighter
adherence to industrial goals of obtaining R&D
results that can be readily integrated into production
or other business activities.
Although dominated by the private sector,
government agencies are involved in many consor-
tia. An agency may serve as the host of a consor-
tium, even when industrial support predominates. In
such instances, the consortium's agenda closely
matches the mission of the agency. An example is
the Consortium for Automated Analytic Laboratory
Systems at the National Institute for Standards and
Technology in Washington, D.C. A government
agency also may provide financial support when the
consortium's research program reflects mission
needs of the agency. Department of Defense support
for the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC)
in Raleigh, N.C. is an example.
In contrast, centers typically have a more diffuse
research program, combining both longer-term basic
research and more targeted applied research and
development. The more diffuse agenda offers in-
dustrial sponsors a "window" on emerging
knowledge in the research area of the center while
still meeting more immediate concerns through at
least some of the projects being conducted. Yet a
consequence of conducting some projects beyond
the short-term needs of industrial sponsors is that
state, Federal, and foundation sources of R&D fund-
ing typically must be tapped, too. This phenomenon
occurs at the National Science Foundation Center of
Excellence in Computer Software at Carnegie-Mel-
lon University and the Cornell University Center of
Excellence in Small Particle Physics.
Activities of Centers
Most centers combine three activities: R&D,
business development and services, and training and
education. Depending on the focuses of the center,
these activities will have differing importance.
Research and Development. The research agen-
da of most centers emphasizes applied research. Al-
though basic research is conducted, it is typically
"generic" work targeted towards enhancing the
knowledge base required for applied research.
Although the emphasis is on applied research,
product development is conducted by most centers.
Except where an individual product or process
development has been specified by a funding or-
ganization as a condition of financial support, the
product development work is conducted at the "pre-
competitive," proof of feasibility stage. This orienta-
tion makes it possible for companies which normally
compete at the product development level to join a
center where all supporters share the results.
Looked at nationally, the research focuses of
centers are extremely wide. We have already indi-
cated the range of diversity within environmental
centers. The National Science Foundation, the lead-
ing government agency for stimulating the forma-
tion of cooperative centers, has initiated more than
60 centers engaged in research ranging from
analog/digital circuits and advanced electron devices
for telecommunications to welding, to advanced
combustion, to biotechnology process engineering,
and robotic systems in microelectronics.
Business and Development Services. The
primary business service provided by cooperative
university/industry research centers is technology
transfer. A variety of mechanisms are used, includ-
ing special meetings for sponsors, research fellows
from sponsors, general symposia, newsletters, short
courses, patent licensing, and extension services.
Some centers go further. Centers may provide
services such as new product assessment, scientific
and engineering literature reviews, technical market
research, and business planning to smaller busi-
nesses. Because the resource base of their small busi-
ness clientele is limited, these activities are typically
underwritten by Federal agencies (such as the Small
Business Administration) or state high technology
economic development agencies.
Centers sometimes establish an affiliated innova-
tion and/or incubation facility in order to encourage
entrepreneurial spinoffs from research programs.
These facilities may be either public or private.
Centers may seek a return on investment by taking
equity positions in the companies assisted.
Training and Education. Training and education
are major adjuncts of most R&D centers. From the
university side, emphasis is usually placed on provid-
ing graduate students with industrially relevant ex-
perience. Short courses and symposia for industrial

and government researchers also are common and
frequently used as supplemental sources of income.
Motivations for Forming Centers
Centers are formed when universities and in-
dustry perceive an opportunity for long-term col-
laboration on pressing problems. The university
usually is seeking a way of leveraging additional
financial and in-kind support to enable its faculty to
work on challenging problems. Additionally, the
university often is seeking to better meet its educa-
tional and training mission by providing to faculty
and students exposure to industrial needs and re-
search capabilities. For its part, industry usually is
looking for a steadily expanding pool of solutions to
a problem area. If the problem is not perceived as
pressing, industrial financial support is difficult to
obtain. Yet the character of the problem must be
generic, somewhat amorphous, and require a multi-
year effort. A further motivation is to influence the
training of students and better meet recruitment
needs.
Problems which are too highly specific and
short-term do not lend themselves to solution
through centers. For example, suppose a company
wants to create a better resin for a particular high-
temperature composite in order to make structural
parts for an aerospace plane. The company likely
will mount an in-house effort to conduct the R&D.
In this case, a collaborative effort with a university
and other competitors may not be appropriate be-
cause the specific knowledge sought may provide a
competitive advantage for the company which
develops it. Further, because the problem is clearly
defined, the project can be controlled through nor-
mal industrial R&D management techniques.
Progress can be assessed against a substantive goal
and project completion date. When the rate of
progress is unsatisfactory, specific corrective steps
can be taken.
More diffuse, longer-term problems lend them-
selves to a center. For example, suppose the problem
is how to create higher temperature composites in an
environmentally acceptable manufacturing process.
This problem is of interest to aircraft companies,
auto companies, engine manufacturers, boiler
manufacturers, and so forth. While important for
each of them, they are end-users of the composites
so they do not compete directly. Thus, there is a sub-
stantial pool of underlying knowledge and technol-
ogy which can be shared without giving any one
company a significant competitive advantage. Also,
there is no clear end point for the research. Better
and better high temperature composites can be
developed over the years. A collaborative effort
makes sense, as it reduces the cost of obtaining that
knowledge and technology for each participant.
Finally, the generic character of the R&D required
lends itself to the university setting. Universities are
known for taking broader approaches to problems
due to their tradition of basic research. Another ad-
vantage is that regardless of what issues may arise
during the R&D, the larger faculty pool provides a
resource from which multidisciplinary teams can be
drawn to support the core center staff.
Federal and state agencies also play an impor-
tant role in stimulating the formation of centers. One
of the government's primary motivations for run-
ning a centers program is to stimulate job creation
and economic prosperity. Often using the enticement
of matching funds, agencies seek to stimulate in-
dustrial competitiveness by encouraging universities
to form centers in the expectation that the centers
will increase industry investment in R&D and ac-
celerate the rate of industry adoption of scientific
and engineering advances. With mission agencies
such as the Department of Defense or NASA,
centers also provide a way to leverage government
R&D funds dedicated to specific agency needs.
While most centers form around problems as-
sociated with industrial competitiveness, this Direc-
tory demonstrates that environmental and other
concerns can motivate formation of centers.
Reasons for Staying Involved With a Center
Center participants in centers expect a flow of
benefits to justify their continued affiliation. While
there are few studies on how participants measure
the benefits they receive, "Evaluation of the NSF In-
dustry/University Cooperative Research Centers:
Longitudinal Analysis of Outcome and Process"
(Denis Gray, Teresa Gidley, and Nancy Koester,
North Carolina State University, December, 1989)
and the experience of Foresight Technology, Inc., in
helping form and fund centers suggest the following
reasons why centers survive.
Four benefits help ensure continued industry
support:
1. Enhanced research productivity inside the company
2. Better personnel recruitment
3. Obtaining rights to patents on which proprietary
products can be based
4. Commercially successful products based on
center-developed knowledge and technology.
XV
-------
Background
Universities point to five benefits in justifying
their continued operation of centers:
1. Better student recruitment (especially at the
graduate level and in continuing post-graduate
education)
2. Better faculty recruitment
3. Increased access to government R&D funds
4. Increased access to private sector funds
5. Increased revenues from patents.
These benefits are seen as causing expansion in the
university's research program and enhancement of
the knowledge base within the university.
State and Federal Government program
managers highlight three benefits when they seek
budgets to support centers:
1. Better leverage of scarce R&D funds
2. More rapid transfer of academic knowledge into
industry
3. Better U.S. industrial competitiveness.
These benefits result in generation of employment
and an improved tax base.
Federal Involvement With Centers
First Centers. The major push for the develop-
ment of cooperative university/industry environmen-
tal R&D centers came from the Federal government.
During the late 1960s and the 1970s, the Federal
agencies and Congress debated over how the United
States could improve the ability of academic re-
search to contribute to industrial technology. A num-
ber of initiatives emerged, one of which was the first
civilian centers program: the Industry/University
Cooperative Research Centers program at the Na-
tional Science Foundation. Begun in 1978, this pro-
gram focused on assisting the formation of
long-term collaboration between a university and a
group of companies.
The Industry/University Cooperative Research
Centers program provides the basic model for all
Federal centers. The program stimulates the interac-
tion of the university and industrial communities on
generic, long-term scientific and engineering re-
search. To ensure that a center's research focus is
pertinent to industry, NSF requires matching in-
dustrial funds as part of the review process in
making awards for Federal support Further, NSF
money is explicitly defined as "seed money."
Centers must become self-sufficient within five
years of inception as Federal funds are phased out
While the structure of NSF Industry/University
Cooperative Research (VUCR) Centers varies, there
are common elements. Each center has an industrial
advisory board made up of companies that directly
fund its research. This board sets research priorities
and directions. New technology produced at the
centers is either jointly owned by the university and
the companies on the advisory board or by the
university with preferential licensing rights held by
the companies.
Today there are 421/UCR centers. Four are in-
volved in R&D related to environmental technology:
the Center for Hazardous and Toxic Waste Manage-
ment at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, the
Center for Plastics Recycling at Rutgers, the Center
for Life Cycle Engineering at the University of
Maryland, and the Center for Aseptic Processing at
North Carolina State University.
The early success of the NSF program spurred
interest in centers. In 1980, Congress enacted two
laws which provided a basic framework for Federal
programs to stimulate centers. Senator Adlai Steven-
son III championed the Stevenson-Wydler Act (P.L.
96-480), which authorized the Secretary of Com-
merce to establish centers for industrial technology
and gave statutory backing for centers at NSF. The
Stevenson-Wydler Act also required Commerce and
NSF to cooperate with other R&D agencies and
authorized those agencies to participate in, con-
tribute to, and serve as resources for centers for in-
dustrial technology. Helping ensure that industry
could benefit from R&D conducted at centers was
the Bayh-Dole Patent Act (P.L. 96-517 1980). This
law gave universities the right to patent technologies
developed under Federal funding.
Expansion of Federal Centers Programs. The
Department of Commerce Centers for Industry Tech-
nology authorized by the Stevenson-Wydler Act did
not materialize until Congress broadened the mis-
sion of the National Bureau of Standards and
renamed it the National Institute for Standards and
Technology (NIST). At that time, under the leader-
ship of Senator Fritz Boilings, NIST initiated a pro-
gram of manufacturing technology transfer centers.
Despite this fact, Stevenson-Wydler did provide an
impetus for more Federal involvement in stimulating
the formation of centers.
Established in 1958, NASA was the only agency
whose establishing legislation included technology
transfer to industry as part of its core mission.
NASA served that function by establishing technol-
ogy transfer offices at each NASA research center
XVI
-------
Background
and by establishing Industrial Application Centers
(IACs). The lACs are resource centers for industry.
They focus on facilitating transfer of existing NASA
technologies to industry. NASA's goal for the lACs
is to discover secondary applications for existing
technology by using NASA's vast technological
database to locate technology applicable to problems
identified by industrial IAC clients. Most lACs are
university based and are funded through fees and the
affiliated university in addition to NASA.
In the early 1980s, the Office of Commercial
Programs began exploring additional tools for meet-
ing the technology transfer mission. The NSF
I/URCs program was one option examined. Based
on a favorable review of that program, NASA
developed the Centers for the Commercial Develop-
ment of Space program (CCDS).
CCDSs were designed to get private industry in-
volved in new space technology. Private companies
pay membership fees to be on a center's board of
directors. This board decides what kind of research
will be pursued. To date, there are 16 CCDSs in ex-
istence. While industrial support is important,
NASA provides more than just seed money for its
centers each one receives approximately $1 mil-
lion a year in Federal support. Several CCDSs are
carrying out environment-related work through their
focus on remote sensing.
In the early 1980s, Congress pressured NSF to
increase the importance of engineering research
within the Foundation. One response, developed in
1985, was the establishment of the Engineering Re-
search Centers (ERC) program. The goal of the ERC
program is to bring engineering and scientific dis-
ciplines together to address fundamental research is-
sues that are crucial to the next generation of
technological advances. The three objectives of this
program are to:
1. Establish cross-disciplinary research centers
2. Strengthen the links between university
researchers and their industrial counterparts in
order to focus research on topics of specific
interest to industry
3. Educate students in integrating and managing
technological systems.
ERCs are also expected to reach out within the
host university and to other academic institutions in
their region in order to enhance the overall character
of engineering education and research in that area.
Because an ERC places greater emphasis on general
engineering education and on longer-term basic re-
search than the I/URCs, NSF support is not
restricted to seed money. Funding is granted in five-
year blocks based on annual NSF reviews. Important
for funding renewal is a major review three years
after the initial award of five-year funding.
Currently, there are 18 ERCs, with plans to ex-
pand that number to 25 in the next few years. Two
ERCs are doing environment-related research: the
Center for Hazardous Substance Control at the
University of California, Los Angeles and the recent-
ly established Microbial Contamination Control Cen-
ter at Montana State University.
The success of NSF centers programs en-
couraged the Foundation to establish an additional
initiative in 1988. Based on the ERC model, the
Science and Technology Research Centers (STC)
program was established to promote basic research
that can most effectively be accomplished through
centers. These centers focus on complex research
problems that are large scale, long term, and may re-
quire special facilities or collaborative relationships
across scientific and engineering disciplines.
Specific objectives are to:
Advance research on problems so complex and so
resource-intensive that only a financially secure
long-term center could produce results
Reduce the time between actual discovery and
utilization of fundamental research results
Increase U.S. industrial competitiveness.
Accordingly, the core mission of STCs includes
ensuring industrial participation in the research and
education program and transferring research results
to industry. Recognizing, however, that the high-
risk, long-term focus of the research conducted by
STCs makes it difficult to support centers solely on
industrial contributions, NSF anticipates approxi-
mately 11 years of Federal support for STCs.
Currently there are 11 centers. NSF anticipates
having 30 STCs within a few years. Two centers are
conducting research relevant for environmental tech-
nology. The Michigan State University Center for
Microbial Ecology is looking at the physiology and
genetics of micro-organisms and how these or-
ganisms affect their ecological surroundings. The
University of Oklahoma Center for Analysis and
Prediction of Storms is studying major storms, such
as thunderstorms, tornados, and flash floods.
The EPA Environmental Research Centers were
created in 1979 to provide support to institutions
willing to dedicate their efforts for several years to
xvu
-------
Background
addressing especially serious or complex environ-
mental problems of concern to EPA. Eight univer-
sity-based centers were established, and each
conducts research in an area named by EPA as a
high priority. Support to each center is provided
through a cooperative agreement with EPA. Each of
the current eight centers is phasing down its opera-
tions during the next several months. A new solicita-
tion has been published to establish four new
centers, at roughly twice the annual funding as the
original centers. Potential topic areas are to be
chosen by the proposers. The new centers are ex-
pected to be in place by April 1991.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sup-
ports five hazardous substance research centers,
authorized under section 31 l(d) of Superfund, as
amended in 1986. While the primary focus of these
centers is research, each has a training and technol-
ogy component that comprises approximately 15%
of its total budget annually. Each center has a Train-
ing and Technology Transfer Advisory Committee,
to assist the center director in choosing and monitor-
ing projects. The centers were established in 1989,
following a competition. Although each center ad-
dresses hazardous substance problems national in
scope, each also serves a particular geographic area
that corresponds to two contiguous Federal regions.
These five centers are described briefly below.
The New Jersey Institute of Technology is the
lead institution in a seven-university consortium
which serves the New England states, as well as
New York, New Jersey, Puerto Rico, and the U.S.
Virgin Islands. The primary focus of the research in
this center is incineration.
The center which serves the mid-Atlantic and
Great Lakes states is headed by the University of
Michigan, in partnership with Michigan State
University and Howard University. This center
focuses its efforts in both research and technology
transfer on bioremediation.
The Center for Waste Minimization and Waste
Management is led by North Carolina State Univer-
sity, in cooperation with the University of North
Carolina and Texas A&M University.
Kansas State University is the lead institution in
the consortium which serves the states of the Great
Plains and the Great Basin. This large consortium
also includes Montana State University and the
universities of Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Montana,
and Utah.
Stanford University and Oregon State Univer-
sity have teamed up to form the Western Region
Hazardous Substance Research Center.
Groundwater remediation is the primary focus of
this center's research program.
Several centers of excellence have been ex-
tablished by the Environmental Protection Agency.
In 1988, EPA entered into a Cooperative Agreement
with the University of Pittsburgh which established
The National Environmental Technology Applica-
tions Corporation (NETAC). In contrast to other
EPA-funded university/industry centers, NETAC
heavily emphasizes assistance with the commer-
cialization of relevant technology. The total EPA
commitment to NETAC is $4.5 million over four
years. This support from EPA must be matched by
support provided through the University of
Pittsburgh, including direct industry support and sale
of services. NETAC activities include assisting in
the evaluation, development, and demonstration of
candidate technologies identified in an aggressive
outreach program. Technologies are evaluated in
terms of their technical feasibility, market potential,
and economic impact. NETAC anticipates assisting
companies and individuals having highly evaluated
technologies with their market research assessments
and in obtaining funding for the development and
demonstration program. In addition, NETAC re-
search focuses on developing and validating a
protocol that rigorously delineates the technology in-
novation process from idea/invent!: a through
testing, development, manufacture, marketing, and
distribution.
The Department of Defense (DOD) has also es-
tablished centers programs. Because of the character
of the DOD mission, the research agenda of these
centers is much more influenced by DOD's mission
needs than industrial concerns. Government funding
is thus the major support for these research
programs. However, industry participation and rapid
transfer of results to industry also are important com-
ponents.
Key Traits of Successful Centers. Federal
managers of centers programs have identified
similar traits as responsible for center success. For
example, John Owens of the I/URC program at
NSF says the ingredients for success of an IUC are
strong leadership, good planning, and pertinence of
research topics to industry. A core of research that is
varied rather than specific is of prime importance.
Pitfalls to avoid include lapsing into the old-
XVM
-------
Background
fashioned "contract mode," where a single company
initiates research.
Lynn Preston of NSF's ERC program also em-
phasizes strong leadership, well- integrated research
relevant to industry, and quality strategic planning.
Preston notes that the two ERCs which have closed
suffered from poor leadership and too much in-
dividualism by university scientists. The traditional
academic tendency to section off one's own research
as an island does not work at an ERC. University
and industry researchers must work together with
ERC leaders to make the system work.
Ana Villamil, the commercial space opportunity
manager in charge of the NASA CCDS program, is
another manager who stresses industrial relevance of
the research agenda. She notes the research agenda
must be directed by industry for a CCDS to succeed.
Center leadership is important for CCDSs also. Seek-
ing reliance on NASA management for leadership
leads to overcentralization and micromanagement;
therefore, NASA is careful to encourage develop-
ment of appropriate management structures in their
CCDSs.
These insights are confirmed in a recently com-
pleted study by Eliezer Gleisler, Antonio Fumo, and
Thomas Kiresuk. In 'Toward a Conceptual Model
of Cooperative Research: Patterns of Development
and Success in University-Industry Alliances" (un-
published manuscript), they conclude that the traits
of successful centers fall into four categories:
management, relations with industry, research ac-
tivities and funding.
Important management traits
Reputation of center leadership
Well defined goals and objectives
Planned leadership succession
Ability to attract and retain quality researchers
Planned intervention for leadership burnout
Strong commitment of research staff and ad-
ministration
Key traits in relations with industry
Continuous marketing and other contacts with in-
dustry
Ability to understand industrial R&D culture
industrial commitment to joint research
Extensive interactions with industrial researchers
Agreeable modes for transfer of knowledge and
technology
Core traits for research activities
Balance between short- and long-term projects
Maintenance of cutting edge research activities
Program of conferences, symposia, publication
and instruction
Maintenance of high scientificAechnical reputa-
tion
Vital funding traits
Ability to obtain support from multiple sources
Strong institutional support from university and
industry
Ability to attract funding for long-term support
Linking and Sharing Experiences Among
Centers
As the number and diversity of centers expand,
participants from academia, industry, and govern-
ment have begun asking how centers can better
cooperate and share lessons learned about manage-
ment, technology transfer, and fundraising.
Established first, the NSFI/URC program has
served as a model for government efforts to en-
courage links among centers. Three mechanisms are
used: monitoring and evaluation, meetings for key
personnel, and supplemental funding to encourage
linkages. These mechanisms can also be found in
other Federal and state government centers
programs.
Early in the I/URC program, a decision was
made to fund evaluation of individual centers by an
in-house monitor, as well as to support studies
examining the program as a whole. Program-wide
studies were originally conducted by NSF staff.
Their work resulted in numerous reports, including
several "cookbooks" on how to establish a center on
the I/URC model and how to structure agreements
between industry and the university. The program-
wide monitoring and evaluation function is currently
conducted under an award to North Carolina State
University.
Meetings provide an opportunity for key center
personnel to explore common interests. The I/URC
program sponsors annual and semiannual meetings,
where center directors and monitors may share infor-
mation and form new linkages.
Another option for encouraging linkages was
added more recently to the I/URC program. NSF al-
lows centers to compete for additional funding for
linking one or more research projects among centers.
