Microscopic visualization of membrane pores and bacterial foulants

Lead Institution
University of Houston
Principal Investigator
Shankar Chellam
Project type
Exploratory Research
My research is mainly centered on membrane technologies for municipal water purification. We (1) elucidate contaminant transport and membrane fouling mechanisms, (2) devise methods to enhance…

Advances in Understanding Electron Transfer Kinetics at Environmental Interfaces

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Kevin Rosso
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
This EMSL user proposal requests a continuation of EMSL access for a BER funded Environmental Molecular Sciences Institute (EMSI) project led by Dr. Rosso at PNNL. This project constitutes the PNNL…

Multi-Resolution Structure and Reactivity of Kinetically
Roughened Oxide Surfaces: Nanometric Scaling Behavior
and Molecular-Scale Controls (Rosso BES,PNNL Scope #43862. Rosso BES)

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Kevin Rosso
Project type
Exploratory Research
Surfaces of Fe oxides, Mn oxides and Si oxides (quartz) minerals in natural settings exhibit a significant degree of morphological heterogeneity on scales from 1-1000 nm. Surface roughness and its…

Conductivity of bacterial nanowires

Lead Institution
