The use of colloid-enhanced ultrafiltration to remove organic pollutants and metal ions from wastewater generated from the pulp and paper industry.
(2003)
Colloid-enhanced ultrafiltration (CEUF) is a surfactant based separation technique which requires low energy and produces high rejection with reasonable flux rates. In micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF), surfactant ...
Admicellar-polymerized thin elastomeric coatings for engineered interfaces for enhanced composite performance.
(2003)
A surface-polymerization technique known as admicellar polymerization has been evaluated as an alternative method to tailor the interfacial properties of glass/epoxy composite parts molded by resin transfer molding (RTM). ...
Development and characterization of encapsulated thrombolytic formulations to enhance thrombolysis.
(2003)
The potential benefit of MESK was also explored in a canine model of coronary thrombosis, a clinically relevant model of myocardial infarction. Compared to FREE SK (68 +/- 7 min), MESK significantly reduced the time to ...
Analysis of the formation of solid and hollow fibers in the melt blowing process: Experiments and modeling.
(2005)
Abstract not available.
Modeling and formulation of microemulsions: The net-average curvature model and the combined linker effect.
(2004)
Microemulsions are phases that contain both oil and water which coexists in thermodynamic equilibrium due to the presence of surfactant films that segregate at the oil - water interface. These systems can be used in numerous ...
Heat integration across plants in the total site.
(2001)
As a step forward in closing this gap, the purpose of this thesis is to discuss heat integration across plants in the "total site". This integration can be accomplished either directly using process streams or indirectly ...
The development of redox polymers based on linear poly(ethylenimine) for application in amperometric biosensors.
(2007)
The second polymer synthesized was hexylferrocenyl linear poly(ethylenimine) [HxFc-LPEI]. By extending the ferrocene group further away from the polymer backbone HxFc-LPEI eliminates the proximity issue, particularly the ...
Non-oxidative conversion of methane in a DC plasma reactor.
(2004)
The interest in natural gas utilization has increased tremendously over the last decade. Natural gas is being looked at as an energy source, as well as a basis for the production of many chemicals. New technologies are ...
Relationship between the micro-structure of cobalt-molybdenum catalysts supported on silica and the selectivity towards single-walled carbon nanotubes.
(2007)
The ability to selectively produce a specific (n, m) helicity of SWNT is a major break through for the industry and research. In this contribution we investigated the requirements needed for having high selectivity of SWNT ...
Titanium dioxide aerogels as photocatalysts for indoor air decontamination.
(2002)
Reducing air pollution, specifically volatile organic compounds, has become an increasing concern for the public, environmental protection organizations, and governmental agencies. One method for destroying air contaminants ...
