Nanoparticle Field Extraction Separator (NanoFES)

Motivation

Nanoparticle Field Extraction Separator (NanoFES)
feasibility of single particle drying
  • Current state-of-the-art drying techniques cannot prevent the aggregation of nanoparticles for the processing of large quantities of material.

Approach

  • EDA and the University of Michigan are using an atomization technique coupled with particle functionalization strategies that together act to reduce drying-induced aggregation as well as post-drying aggregation in micro- and nano-powders.
graft polymers

Results

  • Developed a small-scale prototype during a Phase I effort.
