The integration of SiC nanoparticles into Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LB-PBF) Mo printing represents a significant advancement in refractory metal additive manufacturing. We examined how varying nanoparticle sizes of SiC at 0.01 mass fraction in Mo affects the microstructure and electrical resistivity of LB-PBF-printed molybdenum samples....
With rising human populations, the demand for freshwater is an ever-growing problem. One emerging technology to combat this problem is membrane distillation (MD). MD has several advantages for water desalination such as:
As the result of process changes within an ethylene cracking plant, the amount of a C4 byproduct waste stream has significantly increased (Fabiano, Nedwick 1999). A system of extractive distillation and catalytic oxidative dehydrogenation can be used to add value to this C4 waste stream by producing high purity 1,3-Butadiene, an important rubber...
The expense of commonly used electrocatalysts such as Platinum and Palladium, make many battery technologies and electrochemical reactions cost-prohibitive. A new group of promising low-cost catalysts is doped carbon complexes. These materials need further development to reach the same activity as traditional catalysts. But by examining the...
