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....

Fundamental Understanding on the Inception of Hydrodynamic Cavitation and its Generated Microbubbles in Fine Particle Flotation
DownloadFall 2022
Hydrodynamic cavitation is a frequently occurring phenomenon with positive and negative implications. Research has been mostly conducted to avoid cavitation in the last century because it is the major cause of corrosion in the marine industry. With the progress of science and technology,...
