An integral approach for water treatment and the use of water-energy interdependency network

Lin Y., Zhou Z., Pan S-Y, Snyder S., Argonne National Laboratory, US

Freshwater stress and scarcity is one of the most challenging emerging issues due to climate change, rapid population growth, urbanization, and improved standards of living. Desalination of seawater or impaired water, such as brackish water [...]

Pt and Pt-Ru/Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposites Synthesized in Supercritical Fluid as Electrocatalysts for Low-Temperature Fuel Cells

Lin Y., Cui X., Wang J., Yen C.H., Wai C.M., Pacific Northwest National laboratory, US

In recent years, the use of supercritical fluids (SCFs) for the synthesis and processing of nanomaterials has proven to be a rapid, direct, and clean approach to develop nanomaterials and nanocomposites. The application of supercritical [...]

Biosensors Fabricated through Electrostatic Assembly of Enzymes/Polyelectrolyte Hybrid Layers on Carbon Nanotubes

Lin Y., Liu G., Wang J., Pacific Northwest National laboratory, US

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have emerged as a new class of nanomaterials that is receiving considerable interest because of their unique structure and mechanical and electronic properties. One promising application of CNTs involves their use in [...]

Nanoparticle Labels/ Electrochemical Immunosensor for Detection of Biomarkers

Liu G., Wang J., Lin Y., Pacific Northwest National Lab, US

A sensitive electrochemical immunoassay based on nanoparticle labels has been developed for the detection of protein biomarker-Macrophage chemoattractant protein 1.The approach is based on a new biosensing principle of the protein biomarker-induced formation of nanoparticles [...]
