Nanoparticle-based Organic Energy Storage with Harvesting Systems
A new form of organic energy storage devices (organic capacitors) is presented in the first part of this dissertation. The storage devices are made out of an organic semiconductor material and charge storage elements from synthesized nanoparticles. The semiconducting polymer is obtained by blending …

An Organic Energy Budget for the New York State Barge Canal
An annual energy budget is presented for the New York State Barge Canal, a first order man-made waterway in western New York. The ecosystem approach, in which all input and output of energy as organic matter are measured, is used to describe the energy flow in an 1130-meter segment of the canal. …

Temperature-Dependent Supramolecular Remodeling of Poly-Ether Perylene Diimides
… regarded as a class of the most investigated organic dyes, particularly studied for their photophysical and supramolecular properties. The high versatility of PDIs enables a wide ranged use in practical applications from organic energy-harvesting systems to self-healing hydrogels. This thesis …

The spatiotemporal dynamics of bacterial and fungal abundance in Great Plains non-perennial streams
… to the local microbial habitat provides organic energy and dissolved nutrients that support microbial growth, and in turn, nutrient immobilization. However, the sensitivity of microbial populations to stream drying and rewetting is not well understood. Thus, learning more about the …

Improving bioenergy recovery from municipal wastewater with a novel cloth-filter anaerobic membrane bioreactor
… sludge process (CAS) for aerobic degradation of organics into carbon dioxide (CO2), which is a double negative for energy efficiency. It dissipates the organic energy content of wastewater and requires substantial energy input for aeration. Anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) have been …

Reading Early Modern English Poetry through the Prisms of Energy and Empire
… dissertation project examines the influence of energy in its many forms on early modern English country house verse and epic, arguing for a novel reading approach — through the prisms of energy — to arrive at more expansive understandings of the historical period, its imaginative literature, and …

New Pathways for Asphaltenes Upgrading via Oxy-cracking in Liquid Phase
… cell panels. The intention is to convert these organic materials via a low energy requiring mechanism into intermediate simpler oxidized-organic compounds minimizing secondary end products like carbon oxides. For this purpose, the optimum operating conditions, reaction kinetics and depiction of …
