@li_nfao @NU_ChemE Hey LiNFAO, great updates to your P&ID 🥰 #CohortB #IYKYK Can you explain more about how you might optimize your solvent recycle stream?

@BooZLD_4703 @NU_ChemE Hey BooZLD, interesting project! From your P&ID, most of your evaporators don't appear to have relief outside of the system, was this something you considered in your safety analysis? You might want to consider adding a relief valve after your positive displacement pump too! 🍻

@RenewbleRubbish @Northeastern @NU_ChemE This is a great project! We're wondering if there are any limitations with the amounts of waste that your project can handle? Do you scale to a municipal level? 🥭🍎🍆🍑🍋

@always_sunny19 @NU_ChemE Hey, thanks! There are a couple of papers that talk about centrifugal scale-up, so we don't think it will be a significant issue, we're happy to talk further if you have any specific questions!🧪

@WillitsLab @NU_ChemE Great question! We are testing our design with polypropylene but believe it should work for all plastics as the ferrofluid is thoroughly mixed and the nonpolar oil base is more attractive to the plastics than water! Thanks for the catch on the microplastics stream!🧠

@MilkyWayChemE @NU_ChemE Hey, thanks! There are no existing standards for how microplastics should be disposed of, but @CHME4703GROUP20 is working on a way to recycle ocean plastics! Otherwise, they can be contained indefinitely, similar to nuclear waste!☢️

@CncGane @NU_ChemE Hey, thanks! Our process is being incorporated into existing wastewater treatment plants so many safety concerns are already addressed in existing measures, though additional training will be provided for new steps! Ferrofluid is nontoxic and level controls will be used!👩‍🔧👨‍🔧

@CamelinaSativa @NU_ChemE Hey, thanks! Our process is designed to be incorporated into existing wastewater treatment plants to ease its introduction and adoption! It can be put in new builds too!🤗
