CPS LEARNING & TRAINING

We can recommend several places to learn CPS, and we offer a caveat emptor - or maybe it is a "do your homework" caution. Anyone can use the term "creative problem solving," and use of that term does not signify any particular flavor of creative problem solving. Yet there is an indsutry-recognized meaning for that phrase, and it is this: Creative Problem Solving is shorthand for the Osborn-Parnes Creative Problem Solving methodology. If that is what you seek, make sure that is what you are getting.

The methodology discussed in depth on this website is a version of Osborn-Parnes CPS. Here are other versions that are derived from, and are loyal to, the original: Simplex (Min Basadur), Produtive Thinking Model (Tim Hurson, thinkx), Creative Problem Solving: Thinking Skills Model (Gerard Puccio, Mary Murdock, Marie Mance). Some methodologies that are referred to as creative problem solving, but are not Osborn-Parnes CPS, include: Lateral Thinking (Edward deBono), Synectics (William J. J. Gordon), and Kepner-Tregoe. No value judgment is being made here, but a distinction.

Title : Active carbons as nanoporous materials for solving of environmental problems

However, up to now, the main carriers of catalytic additives have been mineral sorbents: silica gels, alumogels. This is obviously due to the fact that they consist of pure homogeneous components SiO2 and Al2O3, respectively. It is generally known that impurities, especially the ash elements, are catalytic poisons that reduce the effectiveness of the catalyst. Therefore, carbon sorbents with 5-15% by weight of ash elements in their composition are not used in the above mentioned technologies. However, in such an important field as a gas-mask technique, carbon sorbents (active carbons) are carriers of catalytic additives, providing effective protection of a person against any types of potent poisonous substances (PPS). In ESPE “JSC "Neorganika" there has been developed the technology of unique ashless spherical carbon carrier-catalysts by the method of liquid forming of furfural copolymers with subsequent gas-vapor activation, brand PAC. Active carbons PAC have 100% qualitative characteristics of the three main properties of carbon sorbents: strength - 100%, the proportion of sorbing pores in the pore space – 100%, purity - 100% (ash content is close to zero). A particularly outstanding feature of active PAC carbons is their uniquely high mechanical compressive strength of 740 ± 40 MPa, which is 3-7 times larger than that of  such materials as granite, quartzite, electric coal, and is comparable to the value for cast iron - 400-1000 MPa. This allows the PAC to operate under severe conditions in moving and fluidized beds.  Obviously, it is time to actively develop catalysts based on PAC sorbents for oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing and various technologies of organic synthesis.

Victor M. Mukhin was born in 1946 in the town of Orsk, Russia. In 1970 he graduated the Technological Institute in Leningrad. Victor M. Mukhin was directed to work to the scientific-industrial organization "Neorganika" (Elektrostal, Moscow region) where he is working during 47 years, at present as the head of the laboratory of carbon sorbents.     Victor M. Mukhin defended a Ph. D. thesis and a doctoral thesis at the Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (in 1979 and 1997 accordingly). Professor of Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia. Scientific interests: production, investigation and application of active carbons, technological and ecological carbon-adsorptive processes, environmental protection, production of ecologically clean food.
