Optimization of the reaction conditions of two enzymes for use in a carbon sequestration process, and investigation into immobilization via encapsulation within polymersomes
DownloadFall 2016
Carbon dioxide emissions from human activities contribute to an increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. In nature, this gas is sequestered through the use of enzymes found in the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle, with useful molecules such as sugars being synthesized as products. A biomimetic...

Evaluation of Novel Metal-Organic Framework Materials for Adsorptive Post-Combustion CO2 Capture
DownloadFall 2015
The mitigation of CO2 emissions from large anthropogenic sources such as coal-fired power plants by CO2 capture is a challenging engineering problem. Due to the large scale of energy generation, post-combustion CO2 capture processes must be very low-cost for practical implementation. The current...
