Nonthermal Plasma Microreaction Engineering for Gas and Liquid Processing

Creator:

Pommerenck, Justin

Abstract:

Atmospheric pressure plasma is non-thermal at millimeter to micrometer separations. It represents an alternative low exergy initiator of many chemical reactions. In many instances heat, light or sound are not efficient providers of the necessary energy to overcome chemical activation barriers. The focus of this research is applying dc nonthermal...

Model programming of a direct contact condenser in solvent free microwave extraction of peppermint oil

Creator:

Du, Yihao

Abstract:

Solvent free microwave extraction (SFME) has been demonstrated to be feasible in extraction of essential oils from botanical materials. The benefits are no need for any solvent aside from the water naturally in the botanical material and a significant reduction in environmental impact for large scale production processes. However, the...

Controlling the Co-Precipitation of Colloidal PbSe Quantum Dots and Their Device Performance in a Diode Architecture

Creator:

McCrea, Tyler D.

Abstract:

In this work, colloidal PbSe quantum dots (QDs) are shown to be synthesized in a controlled manner by changing the growth time and reaction temperature in a microwave synthesis method. It is explained why quantum dots make such a unique material to create electronic devices and the specific benefits that...
