DOE Project to Develop Carbon Capture Membranes
9/13/19
The goal of this project is to develop advanced membrane materials for CO/N separation, which can be adapted to membrane processes for CO capture from fossil fuel-fired power plants, cement plants, steel plants and other industrial facilities.
Molecular Modeling of Polymer Membranes for Wastewater Cleanup
9/13/19
There is broad interest in developing membrane systems for handling wastewater from a diverse array of sources (e.g., household wastewater, drainfields). The ideal membrane permits pure water to permeate through and rejects contaminants. The permeated water is then reused, reducing the impact of the wastewater on the environment.
Tanks of Algae May Herald Future of Carbon Capture Tech
9/13/19
Haiqing Lin, associate professor of chemical and biological engineering, School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, is helping Helios-NRG develop efficient, long-lasting membranes for inexpensively separating algae and water. Lin's research group is working to develop robust membranes for microalgae dewatering by surface-modification of membranes to increase hydrophilicity and thus superior antifouling properties.
