Hosseininejad, Seyed Shaham Aldin
Dimethyl ether (DME), as a solution to environmental pollution and diminishing energy supplies, can be synthesized more efficiently, compared to conventional methods, using a catalytic distillation column for methanol dehydration to DME over an active and selective catalyst. In current work,...

Carboxymethyl Chitosan as a Selective Depressant in Differential Flotation of Galena and Chalcopyrite
DownloadSpring 2015
Toxic inorganic depressants are routinely used in the differential flotation of polymetallic sulfide ores and it is desirable that they be replaced with environmentally benign chemicals. Chitosan, as a natural and non-toxic polymer, has been proven to be an efficient depressant for copper sulfide...

Fall 2020
In the paraffinic froth treatment (PFT), a large amount of paraffinic solvent is used to produce very clean bitumen products which can be transported directly to market without an upgrading step. However, the high solvent usage demands a large capacity in tailings solvent recovery unit. To solve...

Carbon Dioxide Absorbers for Active Food Packaging: Heterogeneous Chemical Precipitation of Lime on TEMPO Oxidized Cellulose Nanofiber Template
DownloadFall 2019
Ramachandran Shivakumar, Karthik
Cellulose nanofibers are fibers of high aspect ratios with exceptional barrier properties and are manufactured from renewable source. In this study, cellulose from various sources such as Kraft pulp and bleached chemical thermomechanical pulp (BCTMP) with different dispersion methods was used to...
