Fall 2020
The demand for fresh water is steadily increasing as a result of the increasing human populations and activities. On the other hand, water sources are limited, especially as the global warming continues to change the quantities and distribution of water all over the world. Therefore, focusing the...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction through carbon capture and storage (CCS) will be pivotal in achieving the world’s net zero emissions target by 2050. However, we have a long way to go before CCS is implemented at scale worldwide. Emerging technologies such as adsorption-based CO2 capture...

Fall 2023
Adsorption-based oxygen concentrators are modular devices that take in air and operate using electricity to produce 95% pure oxygen. These devices consume less unit energy and are more economical when producing oxygen on a small-to-medium scale (< 300 tons oxygen per day), compared to cryogenic...

Spring 2016
Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC), a new breathtaking nanomaterial, is of scientific and commercial interest because of its low density, renewability, biodegradability, non-toxity and wide range of application potential such as personal care, paints, pharmaceuticals, coatings, drilling fluids, etc (1)....

Odor in textiles: A review of evaluation methods, fabric characteristics, and odor control technologies
Download2022-01-01
McQueen, Rachel H, Vaezafshar, Sara
During use, textile items can develop unpleasant odors that arise from many different sources, both internal and external to the human body. Laundering is not always effective at removing odors, with odor potentially building up over time, due to incomplete removal of soils and odorous compounds,...

Fall 2019
In nature, the molybdenite ores are frequently associated with copper sulfide minerals such as chalcopyrite, and the flotation separation of copper-molybdenum (Cu-Mo) sulfides largely relies on the use of toxic and hazardous depressants such as cyanides, Na2S/NaHS. It is desired to replace these...

Trace Element Variability in Clay Sediments as a Function of Environmental Conditions within the Fluvial to Marine Water Transition Zone
DownloadFall 2019
Estuaries are marginal marine environments of considerable complexity, due to their spatial and temporal variations in hydrodynamic energy, water chemistry, and sediment source and composition. This complexity hinders geologists’ ability to accurately reconstruct paleoenvironments and...

Treating Waste with Waste – Calcined Bauxite Residue (CBR) as a Potential Wastewater Treatment Option for Oil Sands Process-affected Water (OSPW) and Municipal Wastewater
DownloadFall 2023
Bauxite residue is a byproduct generated during the extraction of alumina from bauxite ore. It is highly alkaline and has the potential to release toxic substances (metals) into the surrounding environment during storage. Hence, there is a growing interest in exploring the potential for metal...
