| Initiative Title | compressed air line with dryer in organic lab room |
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | 2022 |
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | The spectroscopic equipment in RCSE226, the organic lab, requires a steady supply of dry (low humid) air. We currently do this by "stuffing" the equipment with desiccant packs. If we tap into the existing compressed air lines and add a dryer we can resolve this problem. |
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | If the desiccant packs are not changed out in time the equipment would be damaged and would be very costly to repair. |
