Department of Chemical Engineering Professor Zachary Smith is working on new polymeric membranes that can greatly reduce energy use in chemical separations.Eric Brown | MIT Industrial Liaison Program November 15, 2017There are scores of promising technologies under development that can reduce energy consumption or capture carbon in fields including biotech, computer science, nanotechnology, materials science, and more. Not all will prove feasible, but with a little funding and nurturing, many could help solve the planet’s grand challenge.One such solution is emerging from new approaches t...

Could a modernist food technique create a new, less wasteful way to package water? Appliance Science looks at the curious chemistry of spherification.A sphere of water created using spherification.I just drank a cup of water. Nothing unusual there, but this was without a cup or other container. Instead, the water was held in a clear, edible membrane that I popped into my mouth and bit down on. It tasted, well, just like water, because this clear sphere was made just from water and two tasteless chemicals.I made this strange sphere myself, using a process called spherification. Using the reacti...

Traditional AAO templates are made of high purity aluminum sheets, which are easy to operate and have high degree of freedom. However, it is difficult for AAO templates to enter the semiconductor process and form complex micro-devices. In order to solve this problem, AAO templates on substrates emerge as the times require. The AAO template is usually prepared by depositing a layer of aluminum on the substrate first. Compared with the ultra-thin AAO template transferred to the substrate, the advantages of this in-situ growth of AAO template are that AAO and substrate bond very closely, the temp...
