Center for Enhanced Nanofluidic Transport (CENT)
CENT addresses emerging and compelling gaps in our knowledge of fluid flow and molecular transport in single digit nanopores and establish the scientific foundation for developing transformative molecular separation technologies impacting the Water – Energy Nexus.
CENT applies precision model systems, transformative experimental tools, and predictive multiscale theories to understand fluid flow and molecular transport in single – digit nanopores, to identify conditions for enhanced flow at extreme confinement, to unravel structure of solid/liquid interfaces, and to design new mechanisms that deliver unprecedented molecular selectivity.
Since its inception in 2018, CENT has presented several breakthroughs in nanofluidics
