aesf sur/fin '99 technical program and exhibitors

AESF SUR/FIN "99 Technica l Program and Exhibitors Cincinnati Convention Center, June 21-24

J J ~ m h e Finishers' Bridge to

! the 21st Century" is the theme selected for

SUR/FIN '99, which will be held at the Cincinnati Convention Center June 21-24. SUR/FIN is the annual conference and exhibit spon- sored by the American Electroplat- ers and Surface Finishers Society (AESF). The AESF is an international society that advances the science of surface finishing to benefit industry and society through edu- cation, information, and social in- volvement.

In addition to the tradeshow and conference, AESF SUR/FIN includes important meetings of the administrative and technical boards, sections, and committees of the 7,000-member professional organization for those involved in the electroplating/surface finishing industry.

Approximately 5,000 or more people, including foreign guests, are expected to come to the Cin- cinnati Convention Center to par- ticipate in SUR/FIN '99. A higher number of foreign guests are expected because the International Union for Surface F i n i s h i n g (IUSF) has designated SUR/FIN '99 as the "American Regional IN- TERFINISH." The IUSF will hold its council meeting at the event. Other surface-f in ishing-re la ted organiza t ions pa r t i c ipa t ing at SUR/FIN '99 include the National Association of Metal Finishers (NAMF), the Metal F in i sh ing Suppliers Association (MFSA), the Society of Manufacturing En- gineers (SME), the Society of Vac- uum Coaters (SVC), the Powder Coating Inst i tute (PCI), and the

European Academy of Surface Technology (EAST).

SUR/FIN '99 officially opens on Monday morning, June 21, at 10:30 a.m. George DiBari, recipi- ent of the 1998 Scientific Achieve- ment Award, will deliver the Wil- liam Blum Lecture after formal welcomes are made. DiBari's lecture, "Faraday 's Children (and Nickel)," is sure to inform and en- tertain. The Society's ceremony for the presentation of its presti- gious annual awards will follow the Blum Lecture.

1-4:30 p.m.

Organizer & Chairman: Fred Rein- hard, CH2M Hill, Eagan, Minn.

Engineering and design of electroplating and surface finishing systems require specifications and quality standards. Rinsewater and make-up water are important tools for design and operation of these fabricating systems because, in many applications, the water influences the chem- istry of the process solutions and can be critical for the quality of the surface of the products. This workshop will include five presentations, dis- cussing critical chemical components in feed water (well, city, and recycled water), how these components can af- fect plating operations, water purifi- cation and recycling technologies, dis- tribution of purified or recycled process water in fabricating plants, and the possibilities of generating water quality standards.
