Chemical engineering involves a skill set that is transferrable to a broad range of other areas. A case in point is the work that is being done by chemical engineers to better understand and fight the COVID-19 epidemic. In this study, we consider a problem that has eluded the COVID-19 research community, which is nevertheless very tractable with a chemica ...

Different steady states in a toluene biodegrading biofilter were explored experimentally and numerically. Experimental results showed that a gradual increase of the toluene inlet concentration over several weeks leads to a consistently low exit concentration, with a drastic increase at an inlet concentration change from 7.7 to 8.5 g m<sup>-3</sup ...

Various models have been developed to determine ammonia (NH3 ) emissions from animal manure processing lagoons to enable relatively-simple estimations of emissions. These models allow estimation of actual emissions without intensive field measurements or "one-size- fits-all" emission factors. Two mechanisms for lagoon NH3 emissions exist: 1) diffusive gas ...

An epidemiological model for COVID-19 was developed and implemented in MATLAB/GNU Octave for use by public health practitioners, policy makers, and the general public. The model distinguishes four stages in the disease: infected, sick, seriously sick, and better. The model was preliminarily parameterized based on observations of the spread of the disease. ...
