Rowan University received a two-year $199,897 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The grant funds research into the solubility-boosting effects of lattice impurities in anisotropic crystals. Specifically, the university will investigate how compositional variations within individual crystals can result in differing solubilities among crystal facets. This could impact crystal growth and dissolution processes. The research aims to challenge current models and provide new insights into how impurities are released from crystalline materials. It will also educate undergraduate and graduate students, providing hands-on experience in crystallization processes and materials analysis. If successful, the research could inform novel impurity separation strategies with applications in industries including pharmaceutical manufacturing and desalination.
