Spring 2010
Most crude oils contain traces of vanadyl porphyrins within their asphaltene fraction. Although these metals are only present in trace quantities, they have a significant detrimental impact on crude oil processing units; therefore, their selective removal is highly desirable. The current work...

Study on Adsorption of Inorganic-organic Hybrid Polymers and Flocculation of Oil Sands Tailings
DownloadSpring 2013
Two inorganic-organic hybrid polymers, Al(OH)3-polyacrylamide (Al-PAM) and Fe(OH)3-polyacrylamide (Fe-PAM) were synthesized and used in flocculating model tailings (5 wt% kaolin suspensions) and laboratory extraction tailings. For comparison, a commercial anionic flocculant, partially hydrolyzed...

Fall 2014
Multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) system, due to its large channel capacity and high reliability, has been widely studied in numerous existing work. It has a lot of applications in reality, e.g., 3GPP and LTE standards. These advantages owes to the understanding of the MIMO channel, which shows the...

Synthesis and Characterization of Electrospun Activated Carbon Nanofibers Reinforced with Cellulose Nanocrystals for Adsorption Applications
DownloadFall 2019
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are emerging nanomaterials with desirable characteristics including biodegradability, renewable sources, high aspect ratios, high surface area, and high strength. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is the most commonly used polymer precursor for electrospinning due to its high...

Tailoring Molecular Sievesâ Dielectric and Electric Properties for Efficient Microwave and Resistive Heating Regeneration
DownloadSpring 2018
Adsorption onto molecular sieve adsorbents is a well-developed technique in the industry for gaseous pollutants emission control. Loaded adsorbents must then be regenerated for reuse in further adsorption cycles. Microwave and resistive heating have been introduced as potential alternatives to...

The Effect of Conventional Elastomers on Force and Moment of a Self-Ligating Orthodontic Bracket with Second-Order Angulation in the Dry and Wet States evaluated through a new 3D Friction Device
DownloadSpring 2013
Objective: A new three-dimensional friction device was used to investigate the effect of conventional elastomers on force and moment of a self-ligating orthodontic bracket with second-order angulation during a simulated retraction. Methods: An 0.018x0.025-in stainless steel archwire was drawn...
