Fall 2012
Synthetic zeolitic membranes have received much research attention over the past several decades but few studies have examined the potential application of natural zeolites for membrane separations. In this study two separate high density natural zeolite deposits were identified, characterized...

Fall 2012
This research is aimed at understanding near-neutral pH SCC initiation under disbonded coatings of pipeline steels, and the effect of different environmental and operational factors on crack initiation. Understanding near-neutral pH stress corrosion cracking (SCC) could answer many of the...

Spring 2012
More than 90% of all metallic materials are manufactured starting from their liquid state. Designing the solid structure produced during solidification can have major savings in downstream processing. Rapid solidification yields significant enhancement in properties through refined...

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,...

Non-linear reparameterization of complex models with applications to a microalgal heterotrophic fed-batch bioreactor
DownloadSpring 2010
Good process control is often critical for the economic viability of large-scale production of several commercial products. In this work, the production of biodiesel from microalgae is investigated. Successful implementation of a model-based control strategy requires the identification of a model...

Non-viral Gene Delivery of BMP-2 Plasmid from Collagen Based Scaffolds for Bone Regeneration Therapy
DownloadSpring 2021
Significant progress in the field of bone regeneration therapy has been achieved in the last two decades. While regeneration therapies with autogenous, allografts and exogenous grafts are remaining the preferred treatments, the outcomes remained are usually sub-optimal. Gene therapy holds a great...

Fall 2019
The optimal design and operation of effluent treatment system networks poses a significant cant challenge in the present time, with the imposition of stricter environmental regulations and an increased demand for resources exacerbated by a diminishing resource pool. In practice, this problem...

Spring 2015
The objective of this dissertation was to find novel adsorbents addressing problems associated with acid gases. They are the most common contaminants in multiple aspects of petroleum processing and combustion gas clean up, which reduce the efficiency of petroleum refining and product quality....
