Production of Supercapacitor Carbon Electrodes from Corn-stover Via Facile Thermal Activation

Shell K.M., Maddipudi B.K., Amar V., Thakkar A., Shende R.V., Kumar S., Gupta R.B., Virginia Commonwealth University, US

Use of biomass is an emerging and promising alternative to produce carbon electrodes for supercapacitors. Lignin-rich unhydrolyzed solids (UHS) obtained from alkaline pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of corn stover were valorized into biochar via hydrothermally [...]

Formation of Nanoparticles of a Hydrophilic Drug using Supercritical CO2 and Microencapsulation for Sustained Drug Release

Thote A.J., Gupta R.B., Auburn University, US

The problem of initial burst release, in sustained drug delivery devices was resolved by reducing the active pharmaceutical ingredient particle size by using Supercritical Antisolvent technique with Enhanced Mass-transfer (SAS-EM)., Encapsulation was performed using a [...]
