Friday, December 8, 2017 2:00 pm - 2:00 pm EST (GMT -05:00)

Seminar - “Hydrogen and the Future of the Energy System… and Multi-Scale Modelling Tools for Fuel Cell Development”, J.G. Pharoah, Queen’s-RMC Fuel Cell Research Lab, Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario

ABSTRACT:  Fuel cells inherently involve phenomena occurring over a wide range of length scales, from the molecular scale on electro-catalyst surfaces through various scales of porous media including catalyst layers, micro-porous layer porous transport layers, to gas supply channels within a cell and finally to the manifolds at the stack scale. In total, length scales spanning about 10 orders of magnitude are of interest to the fuel cell developer.

Undergraduate Lecture - “Understanding Vapour Pressure and Relative Humidity” by Eline Boghaert, Lecturer, Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Waterloo

Biosketch: Dr. Boghaert joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo as a Lecturer in 2014. She teaches a variety of courses including Chemistry for Engineers, Engineering Biology, Mathematics of Heat and Mass Transfer, Physical Chemistry I and Statistics and Experimental Design.

Thursday, January 18, 2018 3:30 pm - 3:30 pm EST (GMT -05:00)

Seminar - “Molecularly Engineering Membrane Materials for Separations Through Enhanced Interactions: A Road Less Traveled”, by Dr. Haiqing Lin, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, University of Buffalo, Buffalo, NY

ABSTRACT:  Membrane technology has emerged as an important separation process for H2 purification, CO2 capture, and water purification.  Conventional membrane material designs are often focused on rigid polymers with strong size sieving ability to enhance diffusivity selectivity.  In contrast, our research focuses on the exploration of specific interactions between the penetrant and membrane materials to achieve high solubility selectivity and thus high separation performance.
