PhD Defence | Thin Film Composite Membranes via Layer-by-Layer Assembly for Pervaporation Separations, by Elnaz Halakoo

Thursday, September 19, 2019 1:30 pm - 1:30 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)

You are welcome to attend Elnaz Halakoo's PhD defence, in which they will discuss their research to investigate pervaporative desalination of high-salinity water and dehydration of ethylene glycol, ethanol and isopropanol.

Abstract 

In this study, thin film composite (TFC) membranes were prepared via layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly of polyethyleneimine (PEI) and graphene oxide (GO) to investigate pervaporative desalination of high-salinity water and dehydration of ethylene glycol (EG), ethanol (EtOH) and isopropanol (IPA).
