Faculty Member Receives Grant from Office of Naval Research
Raghav Khanna received a 3 year grant for $375,000 from the US Office of Naval Research. This grant funds research that investigates the applicability of a new material, gallium nitride (GaN) to be used for the power conditioning circuitry of next generation electric Navy ships.
Dr.Rizvi Awarded NSF Grant
The National Science Foundation awarded Dr. Reza Rizvi a three-year, nearly $400,000 grant to refine his newly developed method to continuously and rapidly produce 2D-layered materials using high-pressure gases, into a means for mass production with the potential to transform U.S. manufacturing.
Ana Alba-Rubio and Dong-Shik Kim Win $300,000 grant from NSF
The goal of this proposal is to make a robust and reusable sensor for hydroxyl radicals. The sensor is regarded as greatly beneficial not only for medical diagnosis (cancer or Alzheimer’s disease), but also for fuel cells, and environmental monitoring.
Faculty Member Receives $200,000 Grant from National Science Foundation
Kevin Xu and his group received an NSF Award for 3 years and involves a collaboration between 3 institutions: UT, the Ohio State University, and the University of San Francisco. The project, titled "Spatio-Temporal Data Analysis with Dynamic Network Models", is funded by a joint effort between the National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Geospatial Intelligence Agency through an NSF program in the Division of Mathematical Sciences called “Algorithms for Threat Detection”.
Chemical Engineering Faculty Win Award from UT Rocket Fuel Fund
Dr. Ana Alba-Rubio and Dr. Maria Coleman, both of the Chemical Engineering Department, will be receiving $50,000 from the UT Rocket Fuel Fund to develop technology on “Soluble and reusable superacid polymer catalysts for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) production.” HMF is a molecule obtained from sugar, which can be converted into 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), which is a precursor of renewable plastics (non-petroleum based). They are trying to speed the production of HMF, so renewable plastics can be obtained more efficiently.
