One-step fabrication of crystalline TiO2 nanotubualr arrays and relevant temperature influences
DownloadSpring 2012
TiO2 nanotube arrays fabricated through anodization have attracted significant interest and have been widely investigated due to their great potential for many applications related to the solar energy utilization for, e. g. photoelectrochemical water splitting, degradation of pollutants and solar...

Comprehensive study of the abrasive wear and slurry erosion behavior of an expanded system of high chromium cast iron and microstructural modification for enhanced wear resistance
DownloadSpring 2014
High chromium cast irons (HCCIs) have been demonstrated to be an effective material for a wide range of applications in aggressive environments, where resistances to abrasion, erosion and erosion-corrosion are required. For instance, machinery and facilities used in mining and extraction in...

Fall 2012
Nitrogen compounds present in bitumen and petroleum products cause significant inhibitory effects on processes such as catalytic cracking and hydrotreating due to poisoning of the catalyst. Consequently, selective removal of the nitrogen species may improve the efficiency of the above processes. ...

Fundamental Understanding of the Interactions between Elemental Selenium and Hydrophilic/Hydrophobic Particles in Wastewater
DownloadFall 2015
In this study, interactions between elemental selenium particles and different surfaces (i.e. Fe(OH)3, silica, octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) modified silica and selenium film coated gold) are investigated to understand the behavior of elemental selenium particles in wastewater treatment process....

Design, Synthesis, Characterization of a new pH-Responsive Copolymer and its Application in Oil Sands Tailings Treatment
DownloadSpring 2015
This research aims at treating mature fine tailings (MFT) with a novel pH-responsive copolymer poly (N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate-co-acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) p(DMAEMA-co-AM-co-AA). Compared with conventional polyacrylamide (PAM), the conformation and property of this novel copolymer can...

Spring 2019
Mathematical models of cryopreservation processes are an important tool in the development of cryopreservation protocols that successfully avoid cryoinjury. Theoretical models of solution thermodynamic behaviour, known as solution theories, lie at the core of many cryopreservation models,...
