2011 Annual Report

Th e Macquigg Award was presented to Jim for his “demonstration in a superior manner and interest in and willingness to help students…and his outstanding teaching ability.” Students in the College of Engineering nominate and elect the Macquigg award recipients.

While we still have signifi cant fund raising challenges to meet our goal to raise $17.5M for our share of the new $126M CBEC building, there have been some outstanding successes in the past year. Dow Chemical pledged $1M to both Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Chemistry to name the 6th fl oor student lounge and Jim and Pat Dietz pledged $1M to name the Unit Operations Laboratory. Further details on the new building are described later in the report.

Best wishes from all our faculty, staff and students.

Stuart L. CooperProfessor and [email protected]

Dear Alumni and Friends of the Department:

As I write this note it is a mild early January and a demolition crew has just fi nished taking down the four buildings (Boyd, Johnston, Aviation and Haskett)which occupied the building site of our new building. Th e Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Chemistry (CBEC) building, which will have the Koff olt Laboratories name prominently displayed, is on schedule. We are expecting groundbreaking this summer with construction to start soon aft er.

Th is past year was one of continued growth and opportunity for our department. Undergraduate enrollment has continued to surge with the sophomore to senior count at 517 and 116 B.S. graduates. Our graduate student population is 89 with 9 Ph.D. degrees awarded. Our overall research expenditures declined to $10.6M, refl ecting the end of the wave of State of Ohio “Th ird Frontier” funds that our faculty won in recent years. Overall the productivity of our department in both the spheres of undergraduate education and research remained quite high. In the midst of the enrollment surge Ohio State is preparing to convert to a semester based academic schedule at the end of the summer. Th is has required a substantial revamping of our curriculum and the faculty, led by the Chair of our Curriculum Committee, Jim Rathman, have made excellent progress in getting ready for the change. We are also charged by the university not to disadvantage any of our student’s graduation progress in the transition, and we are working hard to implement that goal.

Last year Martin Feinberg presented the Wilhelm Lectures at Princeton University and Umit Ozkan was selected as a Fellow in the American Chemical Society. Umit was also appointed Distinguished Professor in the College of Engineering. Jeff Chalmers and Umit Ozkan won College of Engineering Lumley Research Awards and Jim Rathman won the Macquigg Award.

Koff olt Laboratories

Th e planning for our new building is moving forward fairly smoothly. Th e site prepa-ration is, if anything ahead of schedule, with the demolition of Boyd, Johnston, Avia-tion and Haskett completed as you can determine from a webcam view which can be accessed from the department homepage. Th e groundbreaking ceremony for the building will take place this summer with construction activity to begin shortly there-aft er. So far we are within budget and slightly ahead of schedule. Our fund raising eff ort, while far from complete, is progressing nicely and we have naming gift s for several attractive spaces in the building. We have come a long way from the concept to build a new Koff olt Laboratories which began nearly a decade ago, and we eagerly look forward to occupying our superb new space at the end of 2014.

Th e Koff olt Laboratories National Campaign Committee gathered October 28, 2011 to discuss progress to date on the new building.

Bill Lowrie, Chairman of the National Koff olt Campaign Committee, called the meeting to order and introductions were made around the room. Jim Dietz (CBE B.S. 1969, M.S. 1970) was recognized for his $1M gift to name the Unit Operations Laboratory and representatives from Dow Chemical were recognized for their $1M gift to name the Student Lounge. Lowrie reported that more than $14.5M had been pledged toward the $17.5M goal. Department Chair Stuart Cooper gave a brief overview and update on the department. Building architect Darin Cook from Pelli Clark Pelli gave a presentation explaining the details of many of the prominent named spaces in the new building including the latest images and renderings. Rich Brandon (CBE B.S. 1983) and Tom Burns (CBE B.S. 1983, M.S. 1985) spoke about the Dow Chemical gift to name the student lounge and how it will serve to extend the already strong relationship between Dow Chemical and Ohio State.

Dr. Gary Booth (Chemistry Ph.D., 1965), Chairman of the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Chemistry (CBEC) Campaign Committee for Chemistry spoke about the chemistry perspective on the new building and how the two departments can combine strengths and resources to pursue more corporate giving with companies who have an interest in both engineers and chemists.

AIChE Student Chapter activities and eff orts to grow enrollment were discussed and the ChemE Car Team

presented their car and the results from their competition. CBE Clinical Faculty Carlo Scaccia updated the group on the Unit Operations Lab and explained how Unit Ops will be integrated into the semester conversion.

Th e meeting concluded with a fundraising update and workshop led by Director of Development Jason Haskins.

Koff olt Campaign Committee Members:

New Building Space Naming Gift sUnit Operations LaboratoryNamed for Jim & Pat Dietz

Jim and Pat Dietz and Dow Chemical recently contributed naming gift s to the new building.

“Every college graduate recalls certain parts of their college experience with a sense of profound accomplishment. For most Chemical Engineering students at Th e Ohio State University, that remembrance is likely to be Unit Operations lab. It is a team-building, leadership experience unlike any other in the curriculum. Pat and I are extremely proud to be associated with such a critical element in the training and development of future OSU CBE grads.” Jim Dietz (‘69)

Th e Dow Chemical Company has a long term relationship with Ohio State and especially with the Departments of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Chemistry. Th e interactions have involved joint research activities and the recruitment of undergraduate and graduate students for employment opportunities throughout the United States. Dow Chemical representatives Rich Brandon and Tom Burns, both CBE alumni, have been recruiters for both undergraduate and graduate student chemists and chemical engineers. Working with OSU for many years, they facilitated the department’s proposal to the Dow Chemical Company Foundation for a $1M gift to both departments. Th e departments and Dow Chemical have agreed to name the 6th fl oor student lounge in the new building to commemorate this generous gift . Darrell Zavitz, Dow Chemical Vice President, was also a key supporter and contributor throughout the process. According to Brandon and Burns, “Over the years, Dow has hired many outstanding undergraduate and graduate students as well as numerous undergraduate interns and co-op students. OSU educated chemists and chemical engineers have demonstrated an excellent, long term record of accomplishment throughout the company. Dow’s excellent relationship with Ohio State, the performance of OSU alumni and the recognized, world class research within these departments, enabled our approach to the Dow Foundation to be well received.”

Th e conversion to semesters has introduced some challenges for the CBE advising team but has also brought about some positive changes. With more than 700 students (majors and pre-majors) now pursuing a degree in chemical engineering, Academic Advising Coordinator Brian Endres and Undergraduate Academic Advisor Holly Longman have been challenged with the re-

sponsibility of assuring that each student’s progress towards completing the degree requirements is not hindered due to the conversion. To aid in this process, Brian and Holly conducted help sessions during the 2011 autumn quarter where they helped students better understand how the curriculum has changed and the guiding principles behind why the changes were made. Following the sessions, they began to meet individually with students or in small groups to develop an individualized plan for each student. Th is allows each student to not only plan ahead for their projected date of graduation but also to permit time to complete co-op and internship opportunities or a study abroad experience.

Brian has also worked intimately with the department faculty on the development of the semester curriculum and is helping upload all the new information on the university’s and department’s computer systems and websites.

In order to better prepare students for success within the engineering disciplines, each department within the College off ers a survey course during a student’s fi rst quarter of enrollment where students learn the rules and responsibilities of being a student at OSU, time management and study skills, and other helpful information related to their fi eld of study. As the instructor of the course, Holly now has increased fl exibility under semesters to determine the structure and format of the class, including the mode of instruction: in-class, online, or a combination of both.

While these changes have required a signifi cant time commitment for Brian and Holly in addition to their regular responsibilities, they both welcome this opportunity to assist their advisees with their academic and professional goals and look forward to seeing increasing numbers of our students graduate and launch their careers.

Dr. Ozkan is an expert in heterogeneous catalysis, catalytic materials and their applications in industrially relevant reactions, as well as those that are important for energy and emission control. She has made signifi cant contributions to the area of oxidation catalysis, reduction of NOx emissions from stationary combustion sources, fuel reformulation and electrocatalyst development for fuel cells. Dr. Ozkan has also made a signifi cant impact as a leader in academic research administration and in many professional societies. She has published more than 150 technical papers and edited 7 books on energy and environmental catalysis. She has to date been invited to present lectures 125 times in 25 diff erent

countries, which refl ects the reach of her outstanding research work. Dr. Ozkan has continuously devoted her professional eff orts to the ACS Division of Petroleum Chemistry (PTRL) since 1992 by participating in all aspects of the division. Finally, she has impacted the lives of about 2000 students as a teacher, advisor, mentor and role model.

Th e 2011 ACS Fellows were honored at a special ceremony during the ACS National Meeting in Denver on Monday, August 29, 2011.

Selected American Chemical Society Fellow

Appointed College of Engineering Distinguished ProfessorUmit Ozkan has recently been appointed College of Engineering Distinguished Professor, one of the highest academic honors that can be bestowed on a faculty member by the College of Engineering at OSU.

In addition to recognizing Dr. Ozkan’s many signifi cant accomplishments including recently being named Fellow of AIChE, ACS and AAAS, this appointment recognizes her value to the College of Engineering and to OSU. Dr. Ozkan received this appointment based on her excellent performance in research, leadership, teaching and mentorship.

Martin Feinberg, the Richard Morrow Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Professor of Mathematics, was selected to deliver the highly prestigious 2011 Richard Wilhelm Lectures in Princeton University’s Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering. Th e lectureship is named for a seminal fi gure in chemical engineering, and the list of past winners is regarded as a “Who’s Who” of modern chemical engineering. Delivered in October, 2011, Feinberg’s two Wilhelm lectures were entitled

Understanding Chemical Reaction Networks and Understanding Chemical Reactors.

Work by Feinberg and his students is truly interdisciplinary, sitting at the juncture of chemical engineering, chemistry, biology, and mathematics. Indeed, invitations to talk about chemical reaction network theory come not only from chemical engineering departments but also from a variety of disciplines. Recently, for example, Feinberg has been a principal lecturer at conferences on Synthetic Biology in Zurich and in Groningen, and he has been an invited speaker in biology departments at Harvard University, Rockefeller University, and the Weizmann Institute of Science.

Professor Feinberg has won several awards not only for research but also for teaching. When he was at the University of Rochester, he received the Edward Peck Curtis Award for Teaching Excellence, presented to just one professor each year at commencement, and, very shortly aft er his arrival at Ohio State, Feinberg received the College of Engineering’s Charles E. McQuigg Award for Outstanding Teaching. For his work on chemical reaction network theory Professor Feinberg received the Richard H. Wilhelm Award of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers.

Jim Lee Develops New Gene Th erapy Method

Helen C. Kurtz Professor Jim Lee and colleagues have developed a new method of gene therapy, which they have named Nanochannel Electroporation, also called NEP.

Lee says that NEP allows them to investigate how drugs and other biomolecules aff ect cell biology and genetic pathways at a level not achievable by any other existing technique. Th is technique uses electricity to send bits of therapeutic biomolecules through a tiny channel and into a living cell in a fraction of a second, as opposed to using a needle.

Currently, this process only works on one or several cells at a time, but they are developing a mechanical cell-loading system that would inject up to 100,000 cells at once, which could make clinical and diagnostics and treatments possible. Lee says that they hope NEP could become a tool for early cancer detection and treatment, specifi cally in leukemia and lung cancer. He is working with researchers at the Ohio State Comprehensive Cancer Center to explore these possibilities. With high cell-loading, NEP has potential for effi cient and safe cell reprogramming which is critical for regenerative medicine.

Dr. Bhavik Bakshi, CBE Professor and Research Director of the Center for Resilience, is co-editor of the recently published book, Th ermodynamics and the Destruction of Resources. Th is book applies fundamental thermodynamics to problems of sustainability, energy, and resource use, and shows that some of the proposed sustainable solutions can be more destructive than the original problem. Both rigorous and readable, the book

will be useful to a variety of educational and professional audiences interested in green engineering, industrial ecology, and sustainable manufacturing. Th e contributors are leading international fi gures from many disciplines, including engineers, ecologists, economists, physicists, chemists, and policy experts.

Bakshi is a recognized international expert on process systems engineering and sustainability science, and is the creator of Eco-LCA, an advanced soft ware tool for ecologically-based life cycle assessment.

Sponsored by the Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy and Ohio Department of Development, Th e Ohio State University will lead an eff ort to scale-up the chemical looping technology to a 250-KW high pressure pilot plant at the Department of Energy’s National Carbon Capture Center in Wilsonville, Alabama.

Partnering with Babcock & Wilcox Company, Particulate Solid Research, Inc., CONSOL Energy, Inc., Clear Skies Consulting LLC, and Air Products and Chemical, Inc., the pilot plant will

begin construction this year. Th is demonstration will be the largest scale-up of the chemical looping gasifi cation technology for hydrogen and electricity cogeneration from coal and is directed by L.S. Fan (inventor of the process) along with his team consisting of Ohio State post-doctoral research associates and graduate students.

Chemical looping dates back to the 1900’s with the steam iron process for hydrogen generation. Although simple in its concept, chemical looping has not been commercialized due to diffi culties such as looping particle performance and system design. Th e patented syngas chemical looping unit is unique because it can allow electricity and/or hydrogen production by using countercurrent moving bed reactor design and specially tailored oxygen carrier particles.Bhavik Bakshi Co-Edits New Book

Undergraduate ProgramCooperative Learning Experiences: Autumn 2010 through Autumn 2011Th e Engineering Cooperative Education & Internship Program (ECIP) helps undergraduate students obtain career-related employment of two types: cooperative education (co-op) positions and internships. A co-op experience provides an opportunity to apply what is learned in the classroom in career-related positions by alternating quarters of full-time coursework with periods of paid, full-time employment. An internship involves one work period with an employer. A work period may last for one quarter or for two consecutive quarters. Summer internships are the most popular among students and employers.

Students meet with advisors, Brian Endres and Holly Longman, to evaluate diff erent schedule arrangements before interviewing because many employers hire for specifi c “rotations.” For instance, students may work fulltime during the summer quarter, attend full-time classes in autumn, and return to their employer for full-time work in the winter. Th e most popular term to work is the summer. Last year, CBE students completed 48 co-op rotations and 96 internships.

Th e following is a list of companies who hired OSU undergraduates for co-ops and internships and the students who were hired by those companies:

Webster B. Kay Scholarship in Chemical EngineeringJoshua Martin Asher Kay

A total of 115 students were awarded undergraduate scholarships in the Chemical & Biomolecular program. Th e vast majority of those students were current majors, although a small amount went to recruit high ability fi rst year students as well. A total of $99,600 was awarded to students heading into the 2011-2012 school year. Th e average award was $866 this year compared to $894 the previous year.

Trends in data from fi nancial aid show that the number and amount of both student and parent loans have been increasing. Both Ohio State tuition and University fi nancial support have also increased yearly. However, since the increase in scholarship support hasn’t been able to keep up with tuition increases, engineering students and their families have had to increase their debt levels to cover the additional costs. In the Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Department, department scholarships from alumni and corporate donors help defray a small part of the loan burden for many of our students.

Department scholarships are determined mainly by need, however, when a scholarship specifi es that a student’s merit be considered, both merit and need are taken into account. 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.

A description of the qualifi cations for each endowed scholarship is available on the Ohio State Treasurer’s website: http://www.treasurer.ohio-state.edu/endowment/index.html.

Graduate ProgramTh e 2012 U.S. News and World Report rankings of engineering graduate programs placed the Lowrie Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at #27. While the college rankings are based in good part on objective measures such as research funding, number of Ph.D. graduates, number of publications, etc., the departmental rankings are based on subjective surveys of deans of engineering and industrial executives.

Ranking

(Data from the Ohio State University Foundation (fi scal year))

Faculty ProductivityTh e following table, relating to faculty research and our Ph.D. program, attests to our faculty’s productivity.
