CBET-0829092CannonNumerous U.S. groundwater sources host unacceptable levels of perchlorate, nitrate, chromate, vanadate, etc. Available processes for removing these contaminants generally invoke use of petrochemical-based ion exchange media or membranes, which force municipalities and their suppliers to rely on non-renewable raw materials that are mined from non-sustainable and uncertain sources. The investigators are targeting to devise means of employing instead lignocellulosic biomaterials (biocarbons) that originate naturally from within America. The team will build on their recently-devised means of functionalizing the porous biocarbons with reduced-nitrogen groups that remove perchlorate and other oxyanions. The project will link into the Sloan Fellowship program for Minority Ph.D. candidates at Penn State, which is co-led by PI Dr. Cannon. There will also be participation in Penn State's CURO program, which facilitates minority undergraduate research.

CBET-0829092Cannonnumerior的美国地下水资源拥有不可接受的高氯酸盐，硝酸盐，硝酸盐，铬酸盐，钒酸盐等。可用的过程，用于删除这些污染物，通常是使用石油化学的离子交易媒体或供应商依靠非基于石油化学的媒体，这些过程迫使非供应商迫使其依赖于非污染物可再生原材料是从不可持续和不确定的来源开采的。 研究人员的目标是设计使用自然来自美国的木质纤维素生物材料（biocarbons）的方法。 该团队将建立在最近发掘的手段，以减少氮组的多孔杀生物碳的功能，从而消除高氯酸盐和其他氧气。 该项目将链接到少数民族博士学位的斯隆奖学金计划。由PI Cannon博士共同领导的宾夕法尼亚州立大学的候选人。 还将参加宾夕法尼亚州立大学的库罗计划，该计划促进了少数民族的本科研究。
