Application of Microfluidics for Emulsion Characterization
Kole, Subarna (2016-07-01)The formation of emulsions is an inevitable process during crude oil production and refining. This is because of the complex multiphase flow resulting in the mixing of oil and water and formation of stable emulsions. The ... -
Biomass to Ethanol: Process Simulation, Validation and Sensitivity Analysis of a Gasifier and a Bioreactor
Rao, Sirigudi Rahul (Oklahoma State University, 2005-12-01)The Gasification-Fermentation process for the production of fuel-grade ethanol from agricultural biomass is being investigated at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater. Process simulation software, Aspen Plus was used to ... -
Developing a Scaffold from Porcine Adipose Tissue
Roehm, Kevin D. (Oklahoma State University, 2014-12-01)Tissue engineering aims to address the critical lack of immunocompatible tissues and organs available for grafting and transplantation. Scaffolds are three dimensional, porous structures that provide shape and attachment ... -
Emulsified Chitosan-plga Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering
Moshffeghian, Aliakbar (Oklahoma State University, 2005-12-01)This study evaluated the formation of chitosan-50:50 poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) blend matrices using controlled rate freezing and lyophilization technique. An emulsion system was used in the presence of ... -
Evaluation of Cell Penetrating Peptide/Adenovirus Particles for Transduction of Car-negative Cells
Nigatu, Adane Sebsibe (Oklahoma State University, 2012-12-01)Adenovirus (Ad) is a promising gene therapy vector and is used currently in more than 23% of clinical gene therapy trials. The viral vector, however, has drawbacks such as immunogenicity, promiscuous tropism, and the ... -
High-temperature Ethane Dehydrogenation in Microporous Zeolite Membrane Reactor: Effect of Operating Conditions
Dangwal, Shailesh Singh (2017-07-01)Ethylene is the largest base chemical for the chemical industry and produced either by cracking or dehydrogenation of light alkanes. The increasing demand for ethylene has stimulated substantial research into the development ... -
Predicting Ion Exchange Bead Rise during Backwash Flow
Kulkarni, Sanket (Oklahoma State University, 2012-07-01)Separation of cationic and anionic resin is an important step in mixed bed ion exchange operation. Prior to regeneration good separation of the two resins reduces cross contamination. Inefficient separation of the resins ... -
Spent Fluid Cracking Catalyst (Fcc) - a Potential Adsorbent for Organics in Hydraulic Fracturing Flowback
Kamichetty, Jaykiran (Oklahoma State University, 2014-07-01)Steady increase in the natural gas production in U.S.A. is mainly due to horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing (fracking) technologies. Three to five million gallons of water are used for fracking a well. Approximately, ... -
Virtual Design of Chemical Penetration Enhancers
Golla, Sharath (Oklahoma State University, 2008-07-01)This study focused on identifying new potential chemical penetration enhancers (CPEs) for transdermal drug delivery. A computer-aided molecular design (CAMD) algorithm was developed by integrating a new genetic algorithm ...
