Creator:: Truszkowska, Agnieszka
Abstract:: Two-phase flows in microtechnology based devices are purposefully present in multiphase reactors, phase separators, analytical devices and others. Two-phase flows can also be an undesirable side effect occurring during operation due to phase transitions or, more commonly, introduction of surrounding air through equipment gaps and with process feed. In both...

Abstract:: The catalyst support effect on NiMoS of bio-hydrogenated diesel production was investigated via density functional theory. The activity, stability and selectivity of catalyst on three widely used catalyst supports (Al2O3, TiO2 and SiO2) were studied and compared. Catalyst-support interaction and Brønsted acidity strength of different catalyst supports were characterized, which...

Creator:: Sornchamni, Thana
Abstract:: Development of efficient methods for the destruction of solid wastes and recovery of valuable resources is needed to support long-duration manned missions in space. In particular, these technologies are required for deployment in hypogravity and microgravity environments, such as at the lunar or Martian surfaces. Gradient Magnetically Assisted Fluidized Bed...

Creator:: Reed, Brian Patrick
Abstract:: Traditional modeling of fluidized bed operations has focused on the development of models and correlations for specific systems or narrow areas of application. With recent advances in computing power, new methods of modeling fluidization are possible. One such approach is the Computational Fluid Dynamic Discrete Particle Method (CFD-DPM), which treats...

Creator:: Zhang, Pei Lun
Abstract:: The micro-based reactor can be considered as two phases: the main fluid and the gel phase. When the reactants p-chlorophenol enters reactor, diffuses from the main fluid to the gel phase. The diffusion and convention of p-chlorophenol happen in the main fluid. However, there is no convection in the gel...

Creator:: Coblyn, Matthew Y.
Abstract:: There are approximately 2.2 million cases of End-stage Renal Disease (ESRD) worldwide and current hemodialysis treatment is costly and ultimately insufficient compared to kidney transplantation. There is a strong need to arrive at a better solution for treating ESRD. Microchannel-based hemodialysis is one proposed option, already shown to have improved...

Creator:: Parker, James Muirhead
Abstract:: In this work, a multicomponent lattice Boltzmann model is developed for the simulation of multiphase mixing, reactions, and separations processes. This model is unique in that diffusive mass transfer of a component in the model is driven by gradients of chemical potential. This fundamentally correct description of diffusion accurately captures...
