Dear Alumni and Friends of the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering: This has been an eventful year for the department as we recruited a large freshman class of nearly 100 and had a record number of PhD students graduate (19). To put things in perspective, we had 52 seniors graduate (with excellent employment opportunities) and expect that number to grow significantly over the next few years as our pipeline is pretty full. The 19 PhD students is a high fluctuation and would be typical of a department twice our size. If we ever had a steady state, our PhD graduates would total about 12 per year. Overall we continue to have excellent productivity in our teaching and research as can be observed from the data presented in this report. One of our undergraduates, Imogen Price, won a Goldwater national scholarship award and three of the four OSU Denman awards for undergraduate research in Engineering went to our undergraduates. Much more detail can be found on our departmental website under “news.” (http://www.che.eng.ohio-state.edu/) Perhaps the most exciting event of this past year took place in mid November with the unveiling of a bronze statue of Joe Koffolt. This statue was a gift of the class of 1953 and the activities of the day were very heartwarming. We had more than 100 individuals in attendance who heard from our Provost, Dean, members of the Class of ’53, the sculptor, Bob Brodkey and Tom Koffolt. This was followed by a short video about Joe and then the screen was raised. Several alumni present participated in a luncheon roundtable of reminiscences of moments with Joe. We have a streaming video of all the day’s activities on our website.

Marty Feinberg recently presented three Amundson Lectures at the University of Houston at the celebration of Neal Amundson’s 90th birthday. Professor Amundson is among the most distinguished chemical engineering academicians and the invitation to speak on his research on reaction network theory is recognition of Professor Feinberg’s renown and his pioneering contributions to this field. L. S. Fan, who previously served as Department Chair for 9 years, was recognized both inside and outside of the university with awards of the Sullivant Medal, the university’s highest research award which is given only once every 5 years, and the ACS Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Murphree Award. The Sullivant Medal was presented to L. S. by President Holbrook at the Autumn graduation ceremony. Regarding a new face in the department, we welcome Lynn Flanagan as our new Department Administrator. She comes to us with excellent experience from her years of service in the Department of Orthopedics in our School of Medicine. We are also moving forward with the Koffolt Renovation and Expansion project and have selected an architectural firm to carry out a feasibility study regarding the options before us. These options include renovating and expanding the current building, tearing down and rebuilding on the same site, or building on some other site on campus. The architects will give us the pros and cons and costs related to each of these options. All of this aims for a building completion by 2012. We were pleased to see the project for Koffolt Laboratory prominently presented to and accepted by the Board of Trustees in September. For all of our options the expected cost is approximately $60-70M with the department expected to raise about $20M of the cost. Thus we have some serious fund raising work in front of us. We are grateful to those alumni who are serving on our National Committee for the Renovation and Expansion of Koffolt Laboratory who will help to make this happen. Best wishes for a happy and prosperous 2006. Sincerely,

Stuart L. Cooper Professor and Chair

Koffolt Statue Dedication

On November 10, 2005, the Department dedicated a bronze statue, commissioned by the Class of 1953, to honor the memory and achievements of its second Chair, Dr Joseph H. Koffolt. Robert A. Bates (B.Sc. ChE 1953) explained how it came to be,

We had our Fiftieth Reunion in 2003, and as we were preparing for the Class Reunion, Don MacDougall, a fellow classmate and I agreed to take on the responsibility of getting the reunion going. Don did a lot of work with the previous class <seeing> how their reunion went. As part of the reunion we decided that we would like to…donate some money…because we felt that the University had been a great part of our lives and our success…The idea came up with Dave McCarthy in the College of Engineering about a statue of Joe and Dave thought that was a pretty good idea. Don and I talked about it and felt that that would be fitting <considering> how much Joe meant to us and so at our reunion we proposed this to our classmates…and we set a goal of $20,000…Although some people originally thought that maybe we should just give money to the Department, as we talked more and more over dinner at our fiftieth reunion, everyone got onboard and said that that would be a fitting tribute.

After consulting The Ohio State University Department of Art, Marty Shuter, an OSU graduate and part-time instructor was awarded the commission. The following alumni contributed to the statue fund:

Over one hundred people attended the ceremony. This included alumni from each of the decades during which Joe taught at Ohio State, emeritus faculty, members of the University administration and a significant contingent of Koffolt family members. The dedication featured short presentations from Barbara Snyder, the University’s Provost; Bud Baeslack, Dean of the College of Engineering; Bob Bates, Class of 1953; Marty Shuter, the sculptor; Bob Brodkey, Professor Emeritus; and Tom Koffolt, Joe’s only child. Geoff Hulse designed a commemorative booklet featuring a biographical sketch of Joe (extracted from his history of the Department) and presented a short video depicting Joe’s career at Ohio State. Both streaming video of the ceremony and copies of the commemorative brochure are available on-line. A luncheon followed the dedication ceremony, after which a number of the alumni and faculty offered their reminiscences of Joe, many of them both humorous and heartwarming. When the new Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering facility is constructed, it is anticipated that the statue will be incorporated into the lobby or other public space. In the meantime, the statue is currently on display within the third floor Unit Ops lab, overlooking a study area, where Joe will cast his benevolent gaze on the current crop of chemical engineering students.

L.S. Fan Awarded Joseph Sullivant Medal

L.S. Fan, Distinguished University Professor and the C. John Easton Professor of Engineering, has been named the recipient of the Joseph Sullivant medal, one of the university's highest honors. Professor Fan is one of the world's leading authorities on fluidization and multiphase flow, powder technology, and energy and environmental reaction engineering. He has invented processes that enable power plants to burn sulfur-rich coal in a more cost-effective, environmentally sound way. Established in 1920 by Ohio State Professor of Physics Thomas C. Mendenhall, the Sullivant Medal is named for Sullivant, a member of the university's first Board of Trustees. The $10,000 prize is awarded every five years to recognize notable achievements by alumni or faculty members. During his 27 years at Ohio State,

Professor Fan has gained international renown for his invention of patented clean coal processes, including "OSCAR" (Ohio State Carbonation Ash Reactivation) and "CARBONOX," (Carbon-based NOx Reduction Technology). Both processes have been successfully demonstrated for flue gas cleaning in coal combustion with the projected economic impact of these processes at billions of dollars globally.

L.S. Fan Wins Prestigious E.V. Murphee Award Professor L.S. Fan was awarded the American Chemical Society E.V. Murphee Award in Industrial and Engineering Chemistry. This award is to stimulate fundamental research in industrial and engineering chemistry, the development of chemical engineering principles and their application to industrial processes. Winners of this award must have accomplished outstanding research of a theoretical or experimental nature in the fields of industrial chemistry or chemical engineering.

Martin Feinberg Receives Distinguished Scholar Award The Distinguished Scholar Award, established in 1978, recognizes exceptional scholarly accomplishments by senior professors who have compiled a substantial body of research, as well as the work of younger faculty members who have demonstrated great scholarly potential. The award is supported by the Office of Research with an honoraria provided by The Ohio State University Foundation. Professor Feinberg’s research is interdisciplinary in nature, sitting at the juncture of chemical engineering, mathematics, and biology. Chemical reaction network theory, his best-known work, brings sophisticated and deep mathematical analysis to seemingly intractable problems in which many distinct molecular species react via large, complex networks of chemical reactions. Some of this work has been made accessible in a freely available computer program, the Chemical Reaction Network Toolbox. Feinberg joined Ohio State in 1997 and received his PhD in chemical engineering from Princeton.

Martin Feinberg Delivers Amundson Lectures The Amundson Lectures are a set of invited lectures, sponsored by the Departments of Mathematics and Chemical Engineering at the University of Houston, in honor of Neal Amundson, considered by some to be the father of modern chemical reaction engineering. Although there had been annually a single Amundson lecture sponsored by Chemical Engineering in the past, this was the start of a more ambitious event, consisting of three lectures over three days by a single person. Feinberg was the inaugural lecturer for the new series. The lectures were as follows: “The Strange Relationship of Mathematics and Chemistry;” “Understanding Bistability in Complex Enzyme-Driven Reaction Networks;” and “An Unsolved Problem in Chemical Engineering.”

Faculty Research Highlight Professor Umit Ozkan’s work in catalysis focuses on energy and environmental applications. For hydrogen energy to fulfill its potential for protecting the environment, providing more efficient energy sources, and decreasing our dependence on foreign oil, economical and efficient technologies for hydrogen production from renewable energy sources are needed. Photosynthesis uses solar energy to convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to carbohydrates. Theoretically, the net carbon dioxide emission resulting from hydrogen production through bio-mass or bio-mass derived liquids is zero since carbon dioxide is “recycled” back to the plants using solar energy. Bio-ethanol can be produced by fermentation of biomass to yield an ethanol in water mixture. Steam reforming of this bio-ethanol offers a highly attractive route for converting biomass to hydrogen. Dr. Ozkan and her research group are working on developing catalysts for bioethanol steam reforming and investigating the reaction pathways involved in the reaction. This project is supported by the Department of Energy.

Dr. Ozkan and her research group are also working on development of catalysts for hydrogen production from gasified coal in an effort to use the nation’s large coal reserves. Another project related to hydrogen production is selective oxidation of carbon monoxide in hydrogen streams. One of the catalysts they have recently developed is capable of oxidizing CO at very low temperatures with high selectivity. This finding will be quite important especially for removing CO from hydrogen streams to be used for PEM fuel cells since CO acts as a poison for the anode catalysts. Her group is also involved in developing novel catalytic materials for Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) and Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). Studies that are related to PEM fuel cells are focusing on development of precious-metal free carbon-based nanostructures as cathode catalysts. For SOFC applications, Ozkan’s group is investigating increasing the oxygen activation and oxygen transport characteristics of the cathode materials so the solid oxide fuel cells, which require temperatures up to 1000°C, could operate at lower temperatures. Another area Dr. Ozkan’s group is actively working on is reduction of NOx emissions for lean-burn systems. These projects are funded through grants from NSF, DOE and the Ohio Department of Development.

John Corn Elected AIChE Fellow John Corn, Lecturer in the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department, has been elected by his peers to the grade of Fellow of the American Institute of Chemical Engineering. The grade of Fellow in AIChE is a special category of membership which identifies and honors Member chemical engineers who have made meaningful impacts on our profession.

Adam Burly, Webmaster The AIChE Student Chapter Advisors are Professors Barbara Wyslouzil and Bhavik Bakshi. Chemical Engineering Students Compete in National Alternate Energy Competition A team of Chemical Engineering students has won fifth place in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers' Chem-E-Car competition, a national contest in which universities from across the country explore alternate energy sources to power shoebox-sized cars. Competing against teams from 30 other universities, the Ohio State chemical engineering students powered their car with an aluminum-air fuel cell. The colleges invited to participate were the best from their respective regions, having placed first, second or third to qualify for the national competition. Classroom knowledge was put to the test as the students were asked to make last-minute calculations as to how their car, based upon its unique chemical reaction, would carry a specified payload a given distance. The students were not given this information until one hour before the October 30 competition. The Ohio State students were challenged to transport 300 milliliters of water for a distance of 79 feet. They finished fifth in the competition with their fuel cell, which was filled with a solution of potassium hydroxide as an electrolyte. Team members were seniors John Daulton, Dieter von-Deak, Elizabeth Curry, Troy Vogel and Chad Bernard and juniors Adam Peter and Sandy Abraham. Their advisor is John Corn, a lecturer in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. NSEC Summer Research Experience Nineteen undergraduates from universities across the United States spent their summer in 2005 as Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Fellows. They spent 40 hours a week conducting research with graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and faculty members to further Ohio State efforts in the burgeoning field of nanotechnology. Students worked on projects for Ohio State's Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center, called the Center for Affordable Nanoengineering of Polymer Biomedical Devices. For nine weeks, they saw firsthand how chemistry, biology and engineering interface in nanoscale science. Their research could have many implications, for example, for developments in drug delivery, engineered tissue and manufacturing at the nanoscale level.

2005 ABET Visit Every six years the undergraduate program undergoes a rigorous review to determine whether its status as an accredited program will continue. Accreditation decisions are made by ABET, Inc., the recognized accreditor for college and university programs in applied science, computing, engineering, and technology. ABET is a federation of 28 professional and technical societies representing these fields. The OSU Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Program, along with all other programs in the College of Engineering, was reviewed in 2005. Overall, the review of our program went very well. Although the formal decision by ABET will not be announced until Spring 2006, continuation of our status as an accredited program appears secure. The evaluation team was impressed by many aspects of our program, including the strong support we receive from alumni. They also commented very favorably on recent changes in our undergraduate advising system (Mary Hoy’s contributions were highlighted) and to our unit operations laboratory under the direction of John Corn. The annual alumni survey is one of the key assessment tools used by our program. The alumni who participate in this survey help us greatly. Significant thanks are due to Dr. Jim Rathman, who coordinated ABET related efforts in the department. To request an

New ChBE Webpage Up and Running This summer the department updated all aspects of their undergraduate website at http://www.chbmeng.ohio-state.edu/undergrad/. Students have access to all the academic materials available in their advisor’s office, a list of what to do when they are preparing for graduation and information about how pursue undergraduate research in the department as well as a host of other resources. The pages now include information targeted toward future new first-year students as well as transfer students. Bachelor of Science Graduates A number of our graduates received Latin Honors, Distinction Honors or Honors in Engineering. Latin Honors are defined as follows: a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.5-3.69 is Cum Laude; 3.70-3.89 is Magna Cum Laude; and 3.90-4.00 is Summa Cum Laude. A student who graduates “With Distinction” is an honors student (greater than a 3.4 GPA) who has completed a senior honors research thesis. A student who graduates “With Honors in Engineering” has completed a three-pronged program consisting of completing a required number of honors courses, participation in community service, leadership and outreach as well as participation in “investigational studies” which typically includes completing a research paper or thesis or completing a minor. The following list of graduates from Autumn 2004 through Summer 2005 shows each graduate, the employer they are currently working with or graduate school they are attending as well as any honors the student received at graduation.

Financial Aid The cost per year of an in-state student attending Ohio State approaches $17,000 with about half of that in tuition. Fortunately more than 75% of Ohio State students receive some form of financial aid that helps them pay for their college education. Financial aid may be available to students from a number of sources: scholarships, grants, loans, and/or work programs. The Office of Student Financial Aid uses the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to determine financial need and to distribute limited funds to those who have the fewest financial resources. Students may apply for need-based scholarships and grants, cooperative scholarship housing, loans, and the Federal Work-Study program by filing the FAFSA. A student’s financial need is based on the cost of education minus the expected family contribution. In the Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Department, department scholarships from alumni and corporate donors help defray part of the loan burden for many of our students. The highest amount a student can receive from the department is about $3000 and the average department scholarship in 2005 was $1400 with about 110 scholarships awarded. Department scholarships are determined mainly by merit, however, when a scholarship specifies that a student’s need be considered, both merit and need are taken into account. To put things in perspective the total amount of financial aid for College of Engineering students last year was $28M dollars (OSU scholarships at $6.3M, loans at $14M and Federal and other grants $6.4M, plus about $1.3M in the form of college and departmental scholarships). Our department awarded something like $154,000 to our students. While Chemical and Biomolecular Engineers make up close to 8% of the engineering undergraduate student population we are pleased to award more than 12% of the $1.3M of scholarships that arise in the category of college and departmental scholarships. We thank those of our alumni who have established scholarship endowments for this purpose as well as our corporate donors who provide scholarships on an annual basis.

Center for Multifunctional Polymer Nanomaterials and Devices (CMPND)

A Wright Center of Innovation L. James Lee, Helen C. Kurtz Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, is P.I. of the newly-awarded Wright Center for Multifunctional Polymer Nanomaterials and Devices (CMPND), an initiative of Ohio's Third Frontier Program to revitalize Ohio industry. CMPND is establishing a comprehensive polymer nanotechnology center, with state-of-the-art equipment and facilities specific to novel nanomaterials. The technical plan of the center encompasses three industry oriented application areas: nanocomposites, photonics, and biomedical devices. These application areas are linked by three major research thrusts: Synthesis of Functional Materials, Novel Multiscale Fabrication Methods, and Advanced Characterization and Modeling. The state of Ohio funding for this award is $22.5M, with $19.5M of this designated for high-tech equipment and renovation and $3M for operational support. The funding is shared by five other partner universities with about $7M targeted for OSU facilities. The new centralized labs at OSU include micro/nanomachining, micro/nanoscale polymer processing, micro/nanocharacterization, micro/nanofluidics, cell culture and biomolecular characterization, polymer photonics, advanced thermoplastic processing, thermoset composite processing, pilot-scale nanocomposite synthesis, rheology, supercritical fluids technology, and molecular simulation.

Chemical Engineering Graduate Council

The Chemical Engineering Graduate Council (CEGC) put together some exciting events this year. The first event of the year was an orientation for incoming graduate students. This included two meals, information sessions, and an interactive campus-wide scavenger hunt. The week after orientation there was a night of food, fun, and games at the Buckeye Hall of Fame Café. In mid-December we had a holiday potluck lunch. The food was delicious and as diverse as the cultures that make up our department. Teams of graduate students, faculty and staff also participated in intramural sports. The department boasts the reigning champion dodge ball team of fall quarter, and we are excited to start playing ice hockey in the coming weeks. In the spring there will also be an intramural softball team, as there is every year. These events promote camaraderie among students, faculty, and staff and it is a pleasure to organize them.

Chemical Hygiene and Safety Committee

The Department’s Chemical Hygiene Committee, or ChyComm, was formed in 2003 as a group of graduate students who were given the responsibility of ensuring and promoting safety within the Department’s labs. In order to build on the gains made in 2004 ChyComm focused on three specific areas as well as more general areas. The handling


34

and disposal of hazardous waste within the department was sporadic and far from unified. To combat the problem ChyComm developed a number of guidelines for handling and disposal. Next, ChyComm set about to standardize the safety signs within the department. Originally, each lab had its own version of each applicable sign. However, ChyComm reasoned that visitors and even lab workers should be presented with only one version of a sign regardless of which lab they enter. Therefore, the ChyComm designed, printed and laminated standardized signs for all the labs. Finally, in an effort to include all faculty members in the department, regardless of their level of experimental work, ChyComm added two new faculty members. Dr. Brodkey and Dr. Feinberg now have representation within ChyComm. This effort will ensure that all students receive a voice in ChyComm and enter the work force with an understanding and appreciation of lab safety.

Mission and Vision To educate undergraduate and graduate students in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and foster cross-fertilization of allied fields. To advance the state-of-the-art knowledge of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and allied fields through novel and sustained research. To serve the public, academic, industrial and governmental communities through consultation, collaborative efforts and dissemination of research results. To value diversity as defined broadly in scholarship, approach to teaching and in student, faculty and staff make-up.

Goals To develop a high-quality education program at both the undergraduate and graduate levels ranked among the top twenty programs in the nation. To develop a high-quality research program ranked among the top twenty programs in the nation. To serve as a valued technical resource for the public, industry and all levels of government. To have our innovations in education, research and successes in diversity serve as models for other departments, colleges and universities.

Special Activities Lowrie Lectures The 2005 Lowrie Lecturer was Dr. Charles A. Eckert. Dr. Eckert has been a teacher and a scholar for more than thirty years. For the last sixteen he has been the J. Erskine Love, Jr., Institute Professor in the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Director of the Center for Specialty Separations at Georgia Tech. He also holds an appointment in Chemistry. His lectures were as follows: LECTURE I: Tunable Solvents for Sustainable Technology For any chemical process there must be both a reaction and a separation. Conventionally these are often designed separately, but we have combined them with a series of novel, benign, tunable solvents to create a paradigm for sustainable development – benign solvents and improved performance. We have taken a systems approach to the synthesis problem, using novel solvent systems to achieve homogeneous reactions and heterogeneous separations, with the goal of developing more benign processes with economic advantages. Our group is a synergistic combination of chemistry and engineering, and we have used primarily water and carbon dioxide to alter reaction conditions to increase selectivity, eliminate waste, recycle catalysts, and achieve facile separations. LECTURE II: The Chalk Dot: Creativity and Science Although creativity is an essential component of research, many researchers are far less creative than they were when they were children. We shall discuss the creative process and its relation to science and engineering, what creativity is and some of the common barriers to overcome to be creative: emotional, perceptual, and cultural. And we shall offer some ways that people can turn on the creative faucet for their life as well as for their work. A variety of technical and nontechnical examples will illustrate the points being discussed. 2005 Advisory Board Meeting The Advisory Board Meeting was held on March 14, 2005. Participants included Rich Brandon, Ron Harris, Kerry Hertenstein, Scott Joublanc, Bruce Martin, Karen Murphy,

Doug Smith, Mike Winfield, Leonore Witchey-Lakshmanan, Stuart Cooper, Michael Paulaitis, Jessica Winter, David Tomasko, Winston Ho, Umit Ozkan, Jim Lee, Bob Brodkey, John Corn, and Marty Feinberg. The meeting began with a Continental Breakfast at 8:30 and a welcome by Stuart Cooper at 9:00. After member introductions Dr. Cooper gave an overview of the Department. Michael Paulaitis was then introduced as the newest faculty member to join the Department. He presented an overview of projects in his lab and the basis of his research. Future faculty member Jessica Winter was then introduced. She reported on her research which examines the interface between nanomaterials and biology. David Tomasko then spoke to the group about the Strategic Plan for the Undergraduate Program. Winston Ho addressed the group regarding the Strategic Plan for the Graduate Program. Umit Ozkan then presented the Strategic Plan for Scientific and Technological Innovation, outlining the strengths, opportunities, challenges, and areas for improvement. Jim Lee then briefly introduced the new NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center at OSU. In the wrap-up discussion it was noted that the Department continues to move the Koffolt building project forward. Dr. Cooper said that the National Committee was planning to mobilize alumni toward helping with this goal and that he would have more information after the May meeting of this committee. National Committee for the Renovation and Expansion of Koffolt Laboratory The Committee for the Renovation and Expansion of Koffolt Laboratories had a dinner meeting on May 19th 2005 at the OSU Faculty Club. The department’s strategic plan was introduced and a plan for a staged remodeling of the building was presented. Next steps regarding fund raising were discussed. After the meeting it was decided to hold on the remodeling plan until a feasibility study is completed some time in 2006. At that point a decision will be made to either remodel or rebuild on the current site or on some other location on campus. The National Committee held a meeting November 10, 2005 in Room 230 Pfahl Hall (adjacent to the Blackwell). Paul Bates and Ron Harris attended and of the expanded list of committee members, two of them were present, Bob Bates (Paul's brother) and Kerry Hertenstein. Dr. Cooper also saw a newly recruited committee member, Paul Keinholz ('57), at the Dean's Northwestern tailgate. At the meeting Dr. Cooper provided an introduction for the new members and two individuals from Facilities and Planning went over the details of the feasibility study about to begin. The architectural firms have been narrowed to 5 and they all will be interviewed on November 29th. Options and site possibilities are to be delivered by mid July. A challenge we will have is to maintain momentum in 2006 and 2007 to assure a 2012 completion date. John Meyer, Associate

VP and Director of Development, was there to observe the development challenge which was articulated by Dave McCarthy. Dave had a list of the expanded committee and a gift table indicating the challenges ahead. We are planning for a May meeting where we will aim to get a large turnout from our committee which may well total 20 by then.
