This project team will develop and test a prototype an online platform to facilitate engineering project challenges within K–12 classrooms across many schools. The prototype will include a content management platform to enable a high volume of challenges for students to conduct projects on a broad range of STEM topics, such as computer coding, digital modeling, or producing simulations. In a pil ...

Seacoast Science proposes to fabricate a detector that will monitor the presence and concentration of two chemicals commonly used for building decontamination. Ultimately this program will yield a small, rugged, lightweight, low-power system designed for continuous unattended operation or handhel battery operation. In unattended mode, the proposed detector will monitor chemical concentration and ...

Kent SeaTech and Dr. David Brune of the Agricultural & Biological Engineerig Department at Clemson University propose to conduct joint research on the application of high rate algal pond water treatment technology to reduce the negative environmental impacts of nutrient wastes produced by Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs). The Pacific Southwest lead the nation in producton of milk, e ...

The need for a simple, reliable, efficient, and inexpensive virus capture system is an essential step for detecting viruses, such as adenoviruses, caliciviruses, coxsackieviruses and echoviruses in Contaminant Candidate List 2 (CCL@), in water supplies. The currenly available methods are membrane-based techniques that require preconditioning water samples before filtration or are rather expensive ...

The need for a simple, reliable, efficient, and inexpensive virus capture system is an essential step for detecting viruses, such as adenoviruses, caliciviruses, coxsackieviruses, and echoviruses on the Contaminant Candidate List 2 and found in water supplies. The currently available methods are membrane-based techniques that require preconditioning water samples before filtration or expensive fi ...

As stated in the EPA 2004 Solicitation topic B1, there is a need for new technologies to control restaurant emissions. There are over 870,000 restaurants in the United States. Most of these restaurants have under-fired charbroiler creating a significant amount of partifculate matter and volatile organic compouns which have been determined health and environmental hazareds by the EPA. Although s ...

Green Building design, at the planning and schematic design stages when sweeping decisions about sustainable siting, water efficiency, indoor ari quality, materials, atmospheric and energy technologies can still be made, is difficulet at best. Building Design & Construction 2003 "White Paper on Sustainabitity - A Report on the Green Building Moverment" identified significant bariers to green buil ...

We propose to develop a unique, on-line, in situ autonomous monitoring and process control system that will improve the reliability and performance of wastewater treatment systems that are designed to remove nitrogen through simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SNdN). A key component technology of the proposed innovative process control system will be an analytical insturment based on ...
