Please join us for our first in-person Soap Design Symopsium since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic! All our welcome to come and show your support for our first year students as they complete their first term.
Alumni, students, employers, industry partners, media, and members of the general public are invited to join us in Engineering 7 for the Chemical Engineering Capstone Design event.
Advanced Lithium-ion Battery and Beyond for Enabling Mass Electrification of Vehicles
The Department of Chemical Engineering (ChE) and the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) are partnering to organize a series of discourses on technology-based solutions to global challenges linked to UN Sustainable Development Goals.

We are pleased to present another discourse in our series:Circular Economies: Electronic and ElectrochemicalDevices.
Carbon capture is a promising way to slow down climate change from anthropogenic sources. One of the carbon capture technologies that is being actively researched is adsorption. Given the increasing amount of literature that present novel ideas, being able to predict this information based on adsorbent textural properties is desirable. In this thesis, machine learning is used to construct a model to estimate adsorbent performance.
In this thesis, Nafion membranes were modified with single to few-layer heteroatom-doped graphene with the aim of reducing vanadium crossover and possibly improving reaction kinetics within a Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB). The former was successfully achieved, while the investigation of the latter demonstrated limitations in the application of some established analysis techniques to systems such as VRFBs. Reduced graphene oxide did appear to have a positive effect on the reaction kinetics.
We are holding a Meet the Prof lunch for our 4B, 3A, 3B and 2A Cohorts in the IDEAs Clinic
Round Table with WiE Leaders
Help the students from CHE 180: Chemical Engineering Design Studio celebrate the completion of their 1A term and their introduction to design by attending their Design Symposium, where they will showcase the range of soaps they designed and produced during their course.
