In this collaborative GOALI award, co-funded by the Chemical Measurement and Imaging Program of the Division of Chemistry and the Biotechnology, Biochemical and Biomass Engineering and the Chemical and Biological Separations Programs of the Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transports Systems Division, Professor Joern Siepmann of the University of Minnesota, Prof. Jake Rafferty of North Hennepin Community College and their undergraduate and graduate student researchers will work collaboratively with scientists from the Dow Chemical company to model the molecular processes taking place in a variety of analytical and separations experiments, including: reversed-phase liquid chromatography, hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatrography, ion chromatography, and the analyte distribution in self-assembled monolayers used for surface-enhanced Raman scattering. The computational approaches that Profs. Siepmann, Rafferty and their students are developing will be combined with experimental data measured by Dr. Mark Schure and collaborators at Dow Chemical to better understand the process taking place in these experimental systems. The ultimate goal of these kinds of experiments is to improve these processes for science and engineering applications. The ability to cleanly and efficiently separate complex chemical mixtures into their separate components is of critical importance to a number of important industries, including the production of fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, etc. The separation and purification steps in the production of these commodities is also one that can use significant quantities of materials and produce significant amount of waste. By developing better methods for separations, Siepmann, Rafferty and others hope to improve the selectivity and efficiency of these important processes. The graduate and undergraduate students working on this project will gain useful experience in academic and industrial settings, which will help prepare them well for a wide variety of careers in science and technology. This project will also involve the participation of high school and community college students in this research, which will help to excite and engage the next generation of scientists.

该合作 GOALI 奖由化学和生物技术部的化学测量和成像项目、生物化学和生物质工程以及化学、生物工程、环境和运输系统部的化学和生物分离项目共同资助明尼苏达大学的 Joern Siepmann 教授、北亨内平社区学院的 Jake Rafferty 教授及其本科生和研究生研究人员将与陶氏化学公司的科学家合作，对分子各种分析和分离实验中发生的过程，包括：反相液相色谱、亲水相互作用液相色谱、离子色谱以及用于表面增强拉曼散射的自组装单层中的分析物分布。 教授的计算方法。 Siepmann、Rafferty 和他们的学生正在开发的产品将与 Mark Schure 博士及其陶氏化学合作者测量的实验数据相结合，以更好地了解这些实验系统中发生的过程。 此类实验的最终目标是改进科学和工程应用的这些过程。 清洁有效地将复杂化学混合物分离成单独组分的能力对于许多重要行业至关重要，包括精细化学品、药品等的生产。这些商品生产中的分离和纯化步骤也是其中之一可能会使用大量材料并产生大量废物。西普曼、拉弗蒂等人希望通过开发更好的分离方法来提高这些重要过程的选择性和效率。 从事该项目的研究生和本科生将获得学术和工业环境中的有用经验，这将有助于他们为科学和技术领域的各种职业做好准备。 该项目还将让高中生和社区学院的学生参与这项研究，这将有助于激发和吸引下一代科学家。
