1 Bekeris, Michael JosephBlock Copolymers and Nanosphere Lithography as a Bottom-up Fabrication Tool for Facilitating Deterministic Lateral DisplacementWith the capability to separate red blood cells and exosomes, deterministic lateral deisplacement (DLD) has established itself as a great utility in biological sparation applications on both the microscale and nonoscale. Current methods of employing DLD on the nonoscale require electron beam lithogr...2020
2 DeHaan, MatthewCitizens West residential building energy modelingCitizens West is a newly-built development in Downtown Salt Lake City. This building was built by the Giv Group and is 100%. The Giv Group strives to build sustainable but affordable living. In order to determine ways to decrease prices, a digital twin of Citizens West was built, validated, and simu...2023
3 Robertson, Stuart J.Development of a Microbial Fuel Cell for Hypersaline Wastewater Treatment ApplicationsThe proper treatment of wastewater generated by human activity is of paramount importance for the preservation of the quality of water sources. For effluents containing high salt concentrations, treatment requires expensive methods that require high energy usage and additional chemicals. Halotoleran...2019
4 Bowman, SadieDevelopment of non-toxic, inexpensive DNA Gel electrophoresis kit for CH EN K-12 outreachThe biochemical and biopharmaceutical industries are growing rapidly, and promoting hands-on STEM education in high schools is essential in getting kids interested. One of the most common and easily understood experiments is separating DNA samples using gel electrophoresis. However, Utah has consist...2022
5 Sriram, AnanyaElectrochemical Impedance Analysis of Gold-Polyurethane NanocompositeNeural prosthetic devices are used to record and transmit electrical signals to modulate neural tissue functionality. Electrodes in the devices are currently made using traditional electronic materials. These materials are generally not biocompatible and those that are, can be stiff, triggering an i...2020
6 Nuntapreda Alexander NicholasThe electrolytic deposition of iron ore: a green alternative to traditional smeltingThis project was undertaken to determine how to produce metallic iron, the primary component in steel, in a more sustainable manner. Traditionally, iron is smelted inside of an energy-intensive blast furnace that releases large amounts of carbon products into the atmosphere. It is critical to determ...2024
7 Fontaine, NickEvaluating conductive pedot:PSS hydrogel in promoting neural rehabilitationPeripheral nervous injuries (PNI) affect millions of individuals every year and present a significant challenge for physicians. Surgeons have used suturing techniques to repair short sections of damaged nervous tissue, but past a critical distance must resort to nerve guidance conduits (NGC). One ma...2022
8 Nelson, Kelli R.Label-Free Visualization of Nanoparticles Subjected to Dielectrophoretic ForcesPrevious studies have shown that nanoparticle separation may be achieved to very high resolution based on size and other properties in a sawtooth-patterned gradient insulator-based dielectrophoretic microfluidic device. This work integrates this dielectrophoretic capture of nanoparticles from a liqu...2019
9 Allgood, AlyshaOptimization of nitrogen and phosphorus removal in extended aeration oxidation ditchBiological nutrient removal using microorganisms is a crucial part of wastewater treatment that allows for nutrient removal with minimal use of expensive chemicals. A study was performed between May 22, 2023 to August 18, 2023 on the impact of aeration on the nitrification, denitrification, and luxu...2024
10 Galvez, HeillyPorosity Control in Titanium Dioxide Thin Films Through Low Temperature Block Copolymer AnnealingPerovskite solar cells have gained popularity in recent years due to their simplicity in manufacturing. The aim of this work is to provide a direct means to increase perovskite solar cell efficiency by increasing the contact surface area between the perovskite and the electron-transfer material (ETM...2019
