Preparation and characterization of bioadsorbent beads for removing selected heavy metal ions from wastewater
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Rapid industrialization is one of the major threats to water pollution worldwide, as discharge effluents contain large amounts of toxic metal ions. Heavy metals are highly toxic to the ecosystem and human even at very low ...
Innovative immersion approach to retention of African-American 1st year chemical engineers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Students that identify as Black1, chemical engineers, and 1st-year undergraduates face unique circumstances along with perspectives that have not been assessed in depth. This pilot study aims to highlight the challenges ...
Technology for restarting molten salt nuclear fuel chemistry at MU
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Nuclear fuel reprocessing is a responsible choice for the continued expansion of a secure, safe and clean source of energy. While the classical method for recycling nuclear fuel is an aqueous liquid-liquid extraction, the ...
Polyurethenae foams and engineering education
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Thermal conductivity [subscript] of a rigid polyurethane (PU) foam was successfully simulated, during which the impact of index of isocyanate, mixing ...
Application of electronic structure calculations to vibrational spectroscopy and gas encapsulation in zeolites
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Zeolites are an important class of aluminosilicate materials that have wide applications in heterogeneous catalysis, gas separations, and ion-exchange processes at industrial scales. The desire to continue doing research ...
