1xbet online casino , community partners set groundbreaking ceremony for Bulk Solids Innovation Center

Tuesday, July 8, 2014

1xbet online casino — A groundbreaking for the Kansas State 1xbet online casino Bulk Solids Innovation Center will be at 9:30 a.m. Thursday, July 10, in the 600 block of North Front Street in 1xbet online casino . The public is welcome to attend.

The center is the project of Kansas State University with partners the 1xbet online casino Area Chamber of Commerce, 1xbet online casino Economic Development Corporation, U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration, the state of Kansas and the city of 1xbet online casino . Expected completion date will be in 2015.

The research facility will be the only one of its kind in North America. The nearly 13,000-square-foot center will be used to study and develop the understanding of bulk solids materials handling. Bulk solids are loose, dry commodities like sugar, minerals, pigments and recycled plastics that account for more than 80 percent of items transported around the world.

Kansas State University will be the key tenant in the center, which will be used by technology, engineering and agriculture faculty members to conduct research that will complement university programs in both Manhattan and 1xbet online casino . The center also will let the university's students immerse themselves in an industry setting. Two local companies, Coperion K-Tron 1xbet online casino Inc. and Vortex Valves, will supplement the facility by serving as anchor occupants.

"The Kansas State University Bulk Solids Innovation Center is another example of not only the inspiring quality 1xbet online casino has to continue to grow and develop and attract impressive industries to our area, but also how the community's entities can work together for a common goal," said Dennis Lauver, president and CEO of the 1xbet online casino Area Chamber of Commerce. "The groundbreaking ceremony will be an opportunity to hear from all of the people who have remained committed to making this idea a reality."

The groundbreaking ceremony will include comments from Dale Heuszel, 1xbet online casino Area Chamber of Commerce board chair; Jon Blanchard, 1xbet online casino commissioner; Todd Smith, general manager of Coperion K-Tron 1xbet online casino ; Verna Fitzsimmons, CEO and dean of Kansas State University 1xbet online casino ; Ron Fowles, construction lead on the project; and Lauver. Also attending is Cory Downing, vice president of engineering at 1xbet online casino Vortex; Doug McKinney, executive director of North Central Regional Planning Commission in Beloit; Jeff Gillam, president of Jones Gillam Renz Architects; Trey Mowery, 1xbet online casino Economic Development Corporation; and Randy Duncan, chairman of the Saline County Commission.
