A new article has been published in Scientific reports, entitled Water adsorption on surfaces of calcium aluminosilicate crystal phase of stone wool: A DFT study. The article is part of an ongoing project in WP8 in Porelab to understand the mechanism of corrosion ...

We are very happy that Jonas Bueie has joined the group. He will do his PhD in the ERC project, Interlab, and will work to unravel the fundamental mechanism behind transfer of heat and mass across the vapor-liquid interface. He has now ...

A new article has been published in the International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, entitled Thermodynamically consistent modeling of gas flow and adsorption in porous media. This is a work who my colleague Magnus Aa. Gjennestad and me have been working ...

A new article has been published in the Chemical Engineering Journal, entitled Electrodialysis for efficient antisolvent recovery in precipitation of critical metals and lithium-ion battery recycling. The main person behind the article is PhD-candidate Simon B. B. Solberg, who has just delivered ...

Morten Hammer has been evaluated by an international committee and thermodynamics experts, Prof. Even Solbraa, Prof. Natalya Kizilova and Prof. Thijs V. H. Vlugt, and found to have professor competence. He received outstanding feedback on his application. After a two-year Postdoc position in the group, Morten ...

Two new articles have been accepted for publication in the journals Membrane and Desalination, entitled Enhancing Palladium Recovery Rates in Industrial Solutions through Electrodialysis and Selective recovery of ions from copper-contaminated effluents using electrodialysis. The main person behind these articles is PhD-candidate Pauline Zimmermann who ...

Our new paper entitled A systematic non-equilibrium thermodynamics approach for assessing transport mechanisms in membrane distillation has just been published in Desalination. Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising technique for purifying volatile liquids at temperatures below their boiling points. Our study presents ...

Our research project entitled InterLab received an ERC Starting Grant. In the project,  we will bring new understanding and methods to predict transport of heat and mass across vapor-liquid interfaces. The project is really wonderful news for our group; it allows us to ...

Our new paper entitled Analytical treatment of ion-exchange permselectivity and transport number measurements for high accuracy has been published in the Journal of Membrane Science. In the article, we analyse electromotive force measurements of concentration cells using non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and determine the transference ...
