Efficient separation of small micro particles at high flowrates using spiral channels: application to waterborne pathogens
Abstract Detecting waterborne pathogens is a challenging task because of their low concentration in water and their wide diversity. In order to ease this detection process, the potential of microfluidics is investigated in this paper. Spiral...

CO2 Capture by Mesoporous SBA-15 Grafted with 3- Aminopropyl Triethoxysilane in Supercritical Propane
Abstract Supercritical propane (SC-propane) was found to be an appropriate solvent to graft 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APS) onto our own synthesized SBA-15 for CO2 capture. SC-propane grafting provides several advantages, including non-toxicity, ...
