  • Development of a microchannel device for adsorption cooling application

    Creator:
    Asumpinpong, Kasidid
    Abstract:
    Single-layer and three-layer microchannel adsorption devices were fabricated by procedure that was newly developed. Aluminum was chosen for metal housing while the adsorption pair was silica gel and water. Each adsorption layer contained two layers of 250 μm-thick silica gel. Both silica gel layers opened to the same layer of...

  • Computational Investigation and Prediction of Mechanisms and Stereocontrol in Complex Organic Reactions

    Creator:
    Pattawong, Ommidala
    Abstract:
    Complex organic transformations, such as the addition of pyrrole to ketene using planar chiral organocatalyst (*PPY), the four-component anhydride- Manniach reactions, and the site-selective desymmetrization of meso-1,2-diol, are remarkable synthetic reactions that provide high yield and high selectivity. However, the exact mechanism and origins of stereocontrol for theses synthetic organic...

  • New chemistry for electrochemical energy storage applications

    Creator:
    Wang, Xingfeng
    Abstract:
    Electrochemical capacitors and batteries are two major electrochemical energy storage technologies, which have been investigated extensively to meet the rapidly-growing demand for higher energy, higher power, lower cost and enhanced safety in the past few decades. With the charge storage mechanism of electrostatic charge adsorption desorption via electrical double layers,...

  • Transition Metal Oxides for Aqueous Electrochemical Energy Storage

    Creator:
    Jiang, Heng
    Abstract:
    In the 21st century, environmental deterioration is now an indisputable fact. Reliable and economically viable electricity systems based on renewable sources are urgently needed to replace the environmentally detrimental fossil fuels. The feasibility of incorporating renewable-but-intermittent solar and wind energy heavily depends on the development of cost-effective and safe technologies,...
