Title 1:
Novel applications of paper to copper ion sensor, electrostatic power generator and bacterial culture
 
Presenter:
江前敏晴 Toshiharu Enomae, PhD
Professor, Laboratory of Paper Device and Eco-friendly Material Sciences
Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Japan
 
Abstract:
Paper is a biomaterial most widely used and still explores various novel applications other than regular printing and packaging performances. This presentation focuses on paper-based devices: (1) sensors to measure concentrations of copper ions in environmental water, (2) paper electronics, such as a power generator from paper vibration by electrostatic induction, and (3) bacterial culture system using paper as a container in combination with ink jet printer.
 
Biography:
Dr. Toshiharu Enomae graduated from Department of Forest Products, School of Agriculture, The Univ. of Tokyo, Japan in 1984. He received MSc. in 1986 and PhD in 1993 from The Univ. of Tokyo. From 1993 to 1995 he was a Post-doctorate fellow for Dr. Pierre LePoutre at Univ. of Maine, USA. Professionally, he became Assistant Professor in 1987, Associate Professor in 2004 in Paper Science Laboratory of the Univ. of Tokyo, and Professor of University of Tsukuba in 2012. In 2016, he became President of Japanese Society of Printing Science and Technology. The research field is paper science, printing science, and conservation of paper cultural property.
 
 
 
Title 2:
Aggregation rates of charged colloidal particles in a shear flow:
Trajectory analysis with electrical repulsion
 
Presenter:
杉本卓也 Takuya Sugimoto, MSc
PhD candidate, Department of Appropriate Technology and Sciences for Sustainable Development, Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Japan
 
 
Abstract:
Understanding aggregation of colloidal particles is important to control the flow property of solid-liquid multiphase fluid, to advance the aggregation process in water treatment, and also to predict the colloid facilitated transport in water environments. This presentation provides a part of my Ph.D thesis, focusing on an analysis of flow-induced aggregation rates between charged colloidal particles.
