A life cycle assessment of OME (oxymethylene ether) synthesis from biomass-derived syngas as a diesel additive
Download2017-01-01
Mahbub, Nafisa, Oyedun, Adetoyese Olajire, Kumar, Amit, Oestreich, Dorian, Arnold, Ulrich, Sauer, Jörg
The life cycle energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission performances of forest biomass-derived oxymethylene ether (OME) synthesis used as a diesel additive are analyzed in this study. OME, a new alternative liquid fuel, has great miscibility with conventional fuels like diesel. OME...

An examination of linking and blocking procedures for use in deflection cantilever array-based protein detection
DownloadFall 2011
In this project common linking and blocking procedures were examined for use in multiplexed deflection cantilever array-based detection of proteins. A human interferon gamma (INF-γ) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the linking and blocking...

An Integrated Approach for Sustainability Assessment: The Wa-Pa-Su Project Sustainability Rating System
DownloadFall 2014
As global demand for energy continues to rise, unconventional petroleum extraction and production of petroleum substitutes are both becoming more necessary. Development and operation of unconventional oil projects can have considerable social, economic, and environmental impacts. For example, one...

Atomic Electronics With Silicon Dangling Bonds: Error Correction, Logical Gates, and Electrostatic Environment
DownloadSpring 2020
With the potential to unleash a new basis for electronics that are more energy efficient, faster, and at the ultimate scale in size density, single atoms as building blocks for miniature circuity have long been a technological holy grail. Preventing significant development have been various...

Atomic Force Microscopy Characterization of Hydrogen Terminated Silicon (100) 2x1 Reconstruction
DownloadFall 2015
Non-contact Atomic Force Microscopy (NC-AFM) is a Scanning Probe Microscopy tool offering unique non-perturbative analysis of surfaces and adsorbates at the atomic scale. AFM precisely oscillates a sharp tip above a sample. By monitoring the shift in resonance frequency of a quartz tuning fork...
