Sweet sorghum bioethanol production: Research, demonstration, and operational issues
(2014-12)
Sweet sorghum or Sorghum bicolor (L) moench is sugar rich, grows with minimal inputs, and is suitable for cultivation in dry regions making it a desirable energy crop for Oklahoma. In-field fermentation of sweet sorghum ...
Phenomenological model for fraction jetting on distillation sieve trays for multi-regime mass transfer modeling applications
(2011-05)
Scope and Method of Study: Predicting the fraction of the vapor transported as jets, or fraction jetting, on a distillation tray operating in the mixed-froth regime has several advantages. The fraction jetting model can ...
Design of synthetic scaffolds for tissue regeneration applications
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study: This study evaluated a novel process of PCL matrix formation, while independently regulating the mechanical, degradation, and biological properties. Its properties were compared with properties ...
Improved stem cell retention and mechanical stability in a chitosan-gelatin hydrogel
(2016-07)
Due to the heart's poor regenerative ability, new treatments need to be developed in order to repair damaged cardiac tissue after cardiac arrest. A common approach is to deliver adult stem cells combined with injectable ...
Electrosprayed fiber with controllable pore size for tissue regeneration
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Architecture of 3D scaffold is closely related to cell behaviors such as cell infiltration, cell attachment, cell growing and cell colonization in 3D scaffold. The influence of 3D scaffold on the ...
Social, economic and environmental metrics for the sustainable optimization of chemical and petroleum processes
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study: This research is focused on adopting a systematic methodology for address sustainability concerns during early stages of engineering design. Traditionally, engineers designed processes to achieve ...
Coaxial and triaxial structured fibers by electrospinning for tissue engineering and sustained drug release
(2016-05)
Coaxial and triaxial electrospinning are novel methods for fabrication of multilayered nano and micro-size fibers with desirable features such as co-solution blending, reinforced core, porous and hollow structure. However, ...
