As levels of atmospheric CO2 continue to rise, all areas of society, including the chemical industry, are being asked to “do something” about CO2. But what? How should we best use our limited...
Producing a red wine involves a heterogeneous, three-phase system with complex fluid mechanics, heat transfer, mass transfer, and kinetics (both chemical and biological). Yet, the vast majority of...
Systems involving deformable interfaces between immiscible fluids offer a significant challenge for materials design and processing. Static interfacial/surface tension is often the only parameter...
Efficiency has never been more important to the Oil and Gas industry than now. With this being a traditional industry with rooted conventional processes, the biggest challenge in engineering is to...
Our research is focused on cellular engineering and design of bioprocesses using plant-based systems. Plants produce sophisticated small molecules that play key roles in defense against predators and...
The field of genome editing is experiencing a renaissance driven primarily by the repurposing of an immune response system utilized by bacteria and archaea. This system is characterized by the...
Biodegradable polymer scaffolds for tissue engineering can be functionalized with specific chemistries to direct desired cellular behavior and matrix formation. These scaffolds are typically modified...
Materials with high particle loadings are important for several applications: in many cases the particles provide the desired functionality and the polymer acts to bind them together into a shape, so...
The process industries have begun to realize value from data analytics and machine learning, following on the success experienced in other manufacturing fields. Now the challenge has shifted to...
The ability to store large amounts of electrical energy is of increasing importance with the growing fraction of electricity generation from intermittent renewable sources such as wind and solar...
Successful conversion of biomass resources to higher value fuels and chemicals requires an economic and reliable supply of biomass that meets biorefining quality standards. The challenges associated...
Recent years have seen a reawakened interest in hydrogen fuel cell and water electrolyzer technology, with an important economical driver being the continuously lowered costs for intermittent renewal...
Presented by: Georges A. Melhem, Ph.D., FAIChE, Vice Chair of DIERS and President and Chief Executive Officer of ioMosaic How confident are you when it comes to evaluating emergency relief systems...
Facility siting studies are a tool for managing the risk associated with siting buildings and tents in a facility. However, siting studies are complex, and that complexity can make it difficult to...
Lysate-based cell-free systems have become a major platform to study gene expression, but batch-to- batch variation makes protein production difficult to predict. During this webinar, you will learn...
The increasingly global context in which businesses operate supports innovation, but also increases uncertainty around supply chain and other disruptions in industrial systems. The COVID-19 pandemic...
