DESCRIPTION:Chemistry Colloquium\n\nThe guest speaker for the February 4th 
 Chemistry & Biochemistry Colloquium will be Dr. Manar Alherech from the Nat
 ional Renewable Energy Lab (NREL). Title: Chromatography without packing ma
 terial: Modeling and performing separations with liquid-liquid chromatograp
 hy\n\n \n\nAbstract:\n\nWhat if chromatography didn't require silica\, C18\
 , or any solid support? Liquid-liquid chromatography (LLC) achieves separat
 ions using only two immiscible liquid phases\, eliminating the stationary s
 olid phase that defines conventional chromatography. This approach offers c
 ompelling advantages: no irreversible adsorption\, complete sample recovery
 \, gentle handling of sensitive compounds\, higher loading capacities\, eas
 ily tunable properties\, and straightforward scalability from analytical to
  industrial scales.\n\n \n\nThis talk will introduce the principles\, histo
 ry\, and applications of LLC from its conceptual origins\, through its uniq
 ue capabilities\, to modern implementations. Using examples from our resear
 ch in biorefinery applications\, I'll demonstrate how our work in computati
 onal modeling enables rational design of LLC separations\, including recent
  advances in multi-zone configurations that allow continuous operation. The
  aim of this talk is to show how combining experimental measurements with p
 redictive models transforms LLC from an art into a systematic engineering t
 ool and to reveal why LLC offers unique solutions to challenging separation
  problems.
