WaterCAMPWS- Future Household Water Use

Newmark Laboratories 205 N. Mathews Ave, Urbana Map Location: North of DCL Newmark Laboratories is home to the Department of Civil Engineering.

Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Capturing CO2 and from Power Plants with Polymeric Membranes

Undergraduate Materials Organization Power plants are the largest single source producers of CO2 and widespread efforts have been made to capture CO2 from flue gas. We will present a short survey of current technologies for CO2 capture, discuss ideas for CO2 storage, and also present our research efforts toward a new solution. Location: Main Hallway (west) This exhibit is suitable for: All

WaterCAMPWS What will you do when drought hits you? WaterCAMPWS students will demonstrate water treatment concepts in the context of how households will use water more intelligently in the future. Demonstrations that visualize fundamental water treatment concepts will help you understand the chemical, physical, and biological principles of water treatment. Location: Main Hallway (east) This exhibit is suitable for: All

Welding

1961

Electrical Engineering alumnus Donald L. Bitzer (BS 1955, MS 1956, PhD 1960) and colleagues develop PLATO, the first computer-based interactive educational network and home of the first online community. The flat-panel plasma monitor, a forerunner of today’s high-definition flat-panel television monitors, was a spin-off invention made by researchers working on PLATO.

Self-Cleaning Glass
