Surface Characterization of Engineered Biomaterials

Creator:: Faase, Ryan A.
Abstract:: The work presented in this dissertation highlights the various techniques available to characterize the increasingly complex surfaces of engineered biomaterials. The methods used range from the simple measurement of a contact angle with a smartphone to a complex synchrotron technique like near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy to...

Rotating silver-silver chloride electrode studies in gaseous chlorine environments

Creator:: Gurian, Marshall Irvin
Abstract:: The mechanism of continuously chlorinated silver-silver chloride electrode performance was studied by using a wiped, rotating, partially submerged, cylindrical silver cathode. The cell performance using a zinc anode was measured, and the rate of chlorination of silver was calculated for several water saturated chlorine atmospheres. At 75°F, with a chlorine...

Solution-based deposition of functional thin films : development of a glucose biosensor and thermal processing of CZTS nanoparticle films

Creator:: Durgan, Christopher J.
Abstract:: The development of solution-based methods for deposition of different thin film material is presented as an alternative to high cost vacuum-based methods. For certain materials, vacuum techniques are unsuitable for processing. Additionally, vacuum-based processes present high capital costs associated with equipment, and slow processing times. Atmospheric pressure solution based techniques...

Understanding Charge and Mass Transfer Phenomena in Functional Oxide Heterostructures

Creator:: Samarakoon, Widitha
Abstract:: Oxides are a versatile class of materials with a wide range of electronic, optical, and magnetic properties. This makes them ideal for use in a multitude of functional devices for oxide electronics, electrochemical conversion, and storage. The overall performance of these devices is governed by atomic scale charge and mass...

Application of Self-Assembled Monolayers to InGaZnO Thin Film Transistors

Creator:: Motley, Joshua R.
Abstract:: Investigations on the application of self-assembled monolayers (SAM) to indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) thin film transistors (TFT) for fabrication and channel modification are presented. The back channel of IGZO thin film transistors can be modified by the absorption of self-assembled monolayers. The electrical properties of the IGZO exposed back...

Hydrodynamic effects of particle chaining in liquid-solid magnetofluidized beds : theory, experiment, and simulation

Creator:: Cruz-Fierro, Carlos Francisco
Abstract:: In a fluidized bed of magnetically susceptible particles, the presence of a magnetic field induce the formation of particle chains due to interparticle magnetic forces. The resulting effect is a change in the overall spatial distribution of the particles, transitioning from a random, isotropic distribution to an ordered, anisotropic distribution....

Techno-economic and Life-cycle Analyses of Glucosamine and Lipid Production from Marine Diatom Cyclotella sp.

Creator:: Xiang, Xuwen
Abstract:: Currently the production of biofuel from algae is not economically competitive with petroleum fuel. However, co-production of high-value products may be able to justify the cost of large-scale algae cultivation. The basic goal of this study is to develop a techno-economic analysis (TEA) and Life-cycle assessment (LCA) for the production...

Strategies for process flowsheeting

Creator:: Sanz, Carlos C.
Abstract:: Two packages of subroutines were developed to perform material balances on chemical processes using the simultaneous modular approach and the equation-based approach. The performances of these packages were compared for five different processes under at least two conditions: one with no design specifications, and one with two or more design...

Effects of water quality and surface temperature on the scaling characteristics of cooling tower water

Creator:: Lahm, Lawrence
Abstract:: The fouling of cooling tower water was investigated as a function of heater surface temperature and water quality. In particular, the effects on fouling of the addition of calcium in excess of the amounts required for saturation were examined. First, the average bulk water temperature was 97 ± 1 degree...
