Fall 2014
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of steam and fine solids on coke formation during thermal cracking of bitumen. Experiments in a batch reactor at hydrothermal conditions determined the effects of fine solids and water on the onset of coke formation, total coke yield, and defined...

Small interfering ribonucleic acids (siRNA) effectively downregulate the specific gene expression from cleaving the associated messenger RNA (mRNA) in the cytoplasm, which is a promising strategy in cancer management as one of the origins of cancer is the unregulated expression of the oncogene....

Fall 2020
Infectious respiratory diseases, caused by viruses and bacteria that attack the respiratory system, constitute a serious threat in public health around the world. Pathogens can be transmitted in the air though large droplets or aerosols. As aerosols can linger in the environment for a prolonged...

Fall 2014
The current bitumen extraction process has an alarming and increasing environmental impact that is forcing the industry to find a better way to produce oil. The solution that is in development is a solvent based bitumen extraction process. The removal of fines solids is still an important issue...

Fall 2020
Solidification during continuous casting of X70 microalloyed steel results in two types of elemental segregation; microsegregation (interdendritic) and macrosegregation (at the centerline). Both micro and macrosegregation lead to deterioration of steel properties and, hence, a lower degree of...

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Mechanistic Model Development and Application over a Cu-CHA Catalyst
DownloadFall 2018
Mechanistic proposals for the different selective catalytic reduction (SCR) subreactions are integrated into one surface reaction mechanism that describes the main SCR reactions (Standard SCR, Fast SCR, NO2 SCR), transient effects due to nitrate storage, as well as the production of the side...

Fall 2021
Pentlandite is very important to the mining industry since it is the main source of metallic nickel. However, its separation from hexagonal pyrrhotite is a challenge for processing engineers due to the similar floatabilities of these sulfide minerals. An inefficient separation of these minerals...

Fall 2017
Inflammation is generally considered to be a protective response, however the effects of inflammation can also be harmful and even fatal. The study of regulating the inflammatory response in damaged tissue by using engineered biomaterials is not only essential for enhancing the biocompatibility...

Fall 2011
Liquid crystalline domains were observed in fractions of heavy petroleum. Through a combination of polarized light microscopy and Photoacoustic Infrared Spectroscopy, liquid crystals were shown to form on the exterior surface of their parent materials. Analysis of materials using Differential...

Spring 2010
The energy costs associated with ethane-ethylene separation could be significantly reduced by the development of alternatives to cryodistillation. This work examined ethylene recovery by equilibrium adsorption on two types of titanosilicate molecular sieve adsorbents, Na-ETS-10 and Zn-RPZ. A...
