Flow fields created by impinging liquid jets and applications in cleaning
(2019-07-15)Cleaning is an essential domestic and industrial operation. It is particularly important in the food and pharmaceuticals sectors, where a large proportion of the total water consumption (as much as 70%) is used just for ... -
Signal sampling and processing in magnetic resonance applications
(2019-07-19)In this thesis, signal sampling and processing techniques are developed for magnetic resonance applications, to improve the estimation of magnetic resonance parameters and to reduce experimental acquisition times. Two ... -
A Novel Technique for the Separation of Dilute Butanol from Aqueous Fermentation Broths
(2019-04-27)Butanol is a promising biofuel which can be manufactured by fermentation. Irrespective of whether n-butanol or iso-butanol is produced, the alcohol is generally expressed at low concentrations (~1 wt%) in these fermentations. ... -
Chemical Looping for Selective Oxidations
(2019-04-27)This Dissertation describes the development of chemical looping for selective oxidations. Chemical looping is a reactor technology that achieves simultaneous reaction and separation. For a large subset of reactions (viz. ...
