A Modular Millifluidic Platform for the Synthesis of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles with Control over Dissolved Gas and Flow Configuration: https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1944/13/4/1019/htm Abstract Gas–liquid reactions are poorly explored in the context of nanomaterials synthesis, despite evidence of significant effects of dissolved gas on nanoparticle properties. This applies to the aqueous synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles, where gaseous reactants can influence reaction rate, particle ...

1. Effects of ultrasonic irradiation on crystallization kinetics, morphological and structural properties of Zeolite 2. Continuous flow synthesis of zeolite FAU in an oscillatory baffled reactor

With Knowledge Clips, researchers of MSCA ITN COSMIC project would like to share with you what they are working on, why it is important. They have split their work on continuous sonication and microwave reactors into 4 Work Packages: WP1: Ultrasound- and/or microwave-assisted organic synthesis WP2: Ultrasound- and/or microwave-assisted nanoparticle formation WP3: Innovative process technology development WP4: Decision and assessment ...

  The 13th European Congress of Chemical Engineering and the  6th European Congress of Applied Biotechnology – ECCE/ECAB 2021 – will take place between 19 and 23 of September 2021 in Berlin, Germany. The CHARMING project will present “Novel ways of education and training” during the “Preparing for the future” topic.

Great success with COSMIC NWE6, where all ESRs presented their recent results. Insightful meetings/trainings/discussions, cheerful drink/food sessions and an eye-opening visit to GSK UK!!! Thanks for the amazing organisation, UCL!! This was our last meeting with the 15 ESRs together. All the best and success for all of you guys, we are an excellent team!! 😁👏👏   What did we ...

Science & Engineering Education by Immersive Learning 2-4 October 2019 in Leuven Recent developments in immersive learning technologies are providing exciting new tools for teaching and training programmes, yet they remain underutilised in science & technology education and nowhere is this truer than in the field of chemistry and chemical engineering. The aim of this Summer School is to bring ...

COSMIC session during the Second Process Intensification Conference (IPIC2) in Leuven was a success!!

Our COSMIC 5th network-wide event was held this time in Turin and was organized by our Italian partners at the University of Turin. The event started off with the WP meeting (on Monday 25th Mar 2019), where each ESR presented the progress of her/his work. This long meeting was concluded with an informal session of parallel WP group meetings. Following ...

CITEC researchers participating in European project The goal of the “Charming” project is not only to better and more effectively train industry workers in a virtual environment than before: the project also aims to get children and teenagers interested in chemistry. Dr. Thies Pfeiffer shows how work in a virtual reactor might look like. Photomontage: CITEC/Bielefeld University When work at ...

Prabhat Ranjan recently published his work in Chemistry A European Journal. Sustainable chemistry always seeks new synthetic tools. This study brings into light new catalytic properties of triphenylphosphine with the following features: fast, inexpensive, and broad applicability towards dearomative spirocyclizations. Triphenylphosphine has been applied for the synthesis of complex spiro(hetero)cycles in batch and employing continuous flow, a field largely dominated by transition metals. In the cover image, triphenylphosphine has been shown to act as a ...
