The document summarizes the organization of working groups at a seminar on upper-secondary vocational education and training (VET). Participants will be divided into two groups based on their country of origin, with each group further divided into clusters of policy-makers and school professionals. These clusters will discuss priorities and actions to address common challenges in VET at their respective tables, with moderators and rapporteurs. A third group will involve a question and answer session for other seminar participants to learn about and provide feedback on the findings of a synthesis study on VET.

This document discusses choosing a graduate program and making a short list of program options. It outlines learning objectives around understanding one's potential and options, determining the best academic environment for success, and preparing a competitive application. The document then covers understanding one's own strengths and goals, selecting an institution by researching programs of interest and determining fit, and understanding degree plans and requirements. It also discusses preparing application materials like statements of purpose and letters of recommendation as well as the importance of GRE scores in the admission process.
This document discusses cultural influences and describes two types of cultures - individualistic and collectivistic. It then provides examples of these cultures through the stories of two friends, Sheryl and the author. Sheryl immediately decides to study abroad without considering her family's feelings, exemplifying individualism. Meanwhile, the author carefully considers options while discussing with their family, showing collectivism. The author appreciates the opportunity their parents have given them and is willing to seek family advice when making decisions.
Being a mature job seeker has many benefits. You may be more loyal and definitely have depth of experience.
However to minimize ageism you can spruce up your appearance in several ways. Here are a few suggestions.

This document provides an overview of GTC Technology, a global licensor of process technologies and mass transfer solutions. It discusses GTC's proprietary and conventional tray solutions for distillation columns, including their high performance GT-OPTIM trays. The GT-OPTIM trays are designed to achieve plug flow for increased efficiency and capacity compared to conventional trays. The document also outlines GTC's engineering services for distillation column revamps and customized tray designs.
The document discusses GTC's new GT-TolAlk process for producing paraxylene (PX) through toluene methylation using low-cost methanol. The process involves alkylating toluene with methanol to produce mixed xylenes and eliminates benzene production. It offers advantages such as a simple fixed-bed reactor design without hydrogen, high production capacity, and potential for zero benzene byproduct.

The document describes GTC Technology's GT-Styrene process for recovering styrene from pyrolysis gasoline (pygas) using extractive distillation. The conventional process for styrene production is complex and includes drawbacks. The GT-Styrene process directly recovers 99.9% pure styrene from a heartcut of the pygas using a solvent-based extractive distillation system. This replaces multiple steps in conventional methods. The process offers advantages like using a low-cost feedstock and generating income from petrochemical production instead of blending into fuel. An economic analysis shows the erected cost for a 25,000 tonne per annum styrene recovery unit would be $21 million.
GT-SSR is a "modified Claus" process licensed by GTC Technology that integrates a Claus unit with tail gas treating to remove hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from sour gas streams. It offers lower capital and operating costs than traditional Claus units with up to 99.9% sulfur recovery efficiency. The process involves partially combusting sour gas to convert H2S to sulfur dioxide, catalyzing the reaction of H2S and SO2 to form sulfur and water, and treating the tail gas through hydrogenation, quenching, and amine absorption to further remove H2S. GTC Technology has successfully implemented the GT-SSR process in numerous applications to process sour gas streams from ref
The GT-SPOC technology is a novel approach to sulfur recovery that was developed by ConocoPhillips and is now licensed by GTC Technology. It uses a selective partial oxidation catalytic combustion process in the GT-CataFlame section to allow high reaction rates with short contact times. This leads to a substantially reduced footprint and lower capital costs than conventional Claus processes. The gases then enter a waste heat boiler and optional reheating section before the Claus reactors to further recover sulfur. The compact design and consistent air demand allow for easier start-up and shutdown compared to traditional Claus units.

Fiber bed mist eliminators are suitable for capturing extremely fine submicron particles using diffusion. The document also discusses design considerations, materials of construction, applications and worldwide locations of GTC Technology.
Isomalk-4 is a low-temperature process for isomerizing C7 paraffins in naphtha streams. It allows refiners to maximize the value of naphtha by improving yields, octane ratings, and reducing benzene and aromatics formation compared to conventional processing. The process splits naphtha into three streams, sending light C7 to another unit and the C7 mid-cut to the Isomalk-4 unit to produce high-octane products. This results in over 90% liquid yield meeting gasoline specifications with less than 0.6% benzene.
The Isomalk-2SM process is a low-temperature light naphtha isomerization technology that uses a platinum-containing mixed metal oxide catalyst to effectively isomerize hydrocarbons at 120-140°C. It offers refiners a cost-effective option for various process configurations to produce an isomerate with a RON value of 81-93. Key advantages include high conversion rates, stability against impurities, no need for chloride or caustic additions, and a catalyst service life of over 10 years.
GTC Technology offers a dividing wall column (DWC) design that separates a multi-component feed into three or more purified streams within a single tower, eliminating the need for a second column. This saves both capital and energy costs compared to a conventional two-column system. The DWC uses a vertical wall to divide the column into two sections for pre-fractionation, allowing light components to travel up and heavy components to travel down while separating out a middle product. GTC provides detailed engineering and construction management for DWC applications, with estimated 20-30% lower capital and operating costs than a conventional system.
The GT-DOS process is a patented technology that uses a catalyst to directly convert hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in gas streams into elemental sulfur. It offers a simple and cost-effective solution for removing H2S and recovering sulfur from gas streams containing between 0.1 and 200 tons per day of sulfur. The process mixes the H2S-containing feed gas with air over an advanced metal oxide catalyst at 400°F to catalyze the reaction of H2S with oxygen to produce sulfur and water. The sulfur vapor is then condensed to recover molten sulfur.
