A biofilm is a community of microbes embedded in a self-secreted polymer matrix. It may persist in different environments, and in the case of pathogens, these biofilms can be a significant risk factor for foodborne disease and healthcare-associated infections. Due to the unique structure ... En savoir plus
My research group began applying microchip electrophoresis to fractionation of the rare earths more than a decade ago. The electrophoretic method we applied at microscale was isotachophoresis, which has the ability to quickly concentrate samples by several orders of magnitude while ... En savoir plus
Microfluidics-based mixing has been widely used in various areas such as chemical engineering, biomedical engineering and materials science. The micromixer can be strategies into two categories as passive and active method depending on the mixing principle. Magnetic mixing integrated ... En savoir plus
Our atmosphere, land, and water are being continuously besieged by pollutants caused by such events as heavy metals leaching from mine tailing ponds, chemical spills from railroad and truck tanker accidents, and petroleum pipeline failures, to name just a few. These environmental insults ... En savoir plus
Numerous adsorptive media have been evaluated for the removal of inorganic contaminants in water, such as harmful heavy metals, toxic oxyanions, and radioactive species. Due to the complexity of water chemistry and chemical reactions at adsorptive media surface, lab-scale adsorption ... En savoir plus
Lyophilization is a dehydration process used to preserve perishable material like food. It depends on many parameters like temperature, pressure, rate of drying, type of heating for sublimation, chamber size etc. Therefore, optimization of multiple parameters is required for design and ...

Lithium ion battery electrodes are porous composite film made up of two or three different types of solid material. Typically using the fabrication of the electrode, the solid powders (active material, binder and in most cases a conductive active) are dispersed in a solvent like NMP and ... En savoir plus
Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are intermittent in nature. Their effective utilization requires efficient, low cost energy storage systems to complement energy harnessing systems. The rechargeable flow batteries have emerged as the most suitable candidates due to their ... En savoir plus
In this work, finite element method (FEM) based commercial software COMSOL Multiphysics® has been used to perform two-dimensional simulation of droplet formation inside T-junction microchannel. The laminar two-phase flow, level set module modules of COMSOL Multiphysics® with free ... En savoir plus
Over the years, researchers have been investigating a variety of approaches to understand the droplet dynamics in a microchannel due to its vast applications in various fields. At low Reynolds number, surface tension and viscosity dominate the flow in the microchannel. In this study, the ... En savoir plus
