Montana Tech 碳 High-Temperature Advanced Research (CHAR) Laboratory

研究领域

The 菲律宾十大彩票平台大学 碳 High-Temperature Advanced Research Laboratory, through research grants from the Army Research Lab (ARL) is investigating novel Rare Earth Element (REE) extraction and chemical hazard removal technologies to support the Army Modernization Strategy. REEs are critical materials utilized to construct communication, 指导, and control systems for both defense and civilian applications. 目前, the United States is unable to economically extract the necessary quantities of REEs, and is dependent upon foreign markets and supply chains. The CHAR laboratory is applying novel resonant vibratory mixing technologies with carbon-based absorbates to conduct REE solid separations. Chemical hazards affect the health and safety of both humans and the environment. The CHAR laboratory is tasked with developing novel techniques to mitigate airborne and waterborne contaminants. CHAR endeavors to adapt existing methodology to create metal-organic frameworks from common reagents, 应用功能材料作为表面涂层, and produce functional materials to neutralize air and water toxins. 这项工作是由教师进行的, 研究生研究生, and undergraduate students to provide educational opportunities for students interested in related engineering and science fields.
