developed to further the adoption of energy-saving options in middle- to low-income communities. Example activities for project output 5 (ongoing as of Spring 2020) include:implementing formative research study activities, including interviews and survey(s); development ofmessage maps for specific target audiences (e.g. homeowners, small contractors, etc.); anddevelopment of social marketing promotional materials. Students in Mercer University’s GreenEngineering course are introduced to social marketing and messaging maps, studying numerous casestudies related to the environment, and participating in the development of this project output.Figure 3: an example Message Map developed to promote household energy efficiencyand low-cost solar PV systems

IntroductionAccording to the National Science Board (NSB)’s Science and Engineering Indicators 2004,enrollment in undergraduate engineering and science programs in the United States has been indecline since the 1980s1. Clearly, there is a continued need for increased enrollment andretention in science and engineering. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics(STEM) have become increasingly central to our economic competitiveness and growth. Long–term strategies to maintain and increase living standards and promote opportunity will requireunprecedented coordinated efforts among public, private, and non-profit entities to promoteinnovation and to prepare an adequate supply of qualified STEM workers1.

a methanol removal step, thePurolite® will not last as long as. Typically, one pound of Purolite® can be used to filter 1500-2000 pounds of biodiesel (200-275 gallons). Because this process does not use a pre-methanolrecovery system, it is estimated that the Purolite®’s useful life is half of what is normallyexpected (this applies to the lead tower only). For the lag tower, the operator can monitor thecondition of the fuel exiting, and once signs of impurities are noticed the media should beremoved. Purolite® can be regenerated (i.e. cleaned) by soaking in methanol (7). Afterregeneration, the ―dirty‖ methanol can be re-used as a reactant. However, it should not be usedin greater concentrations than 50% re-used methanol to unused methanol
