PROF. ROSNER RECOGNIZED FOR EXCELLENCE IN AEROSOL RESEARCH

Professor Daniel E. Rosner of the Yale Department of Chemical Engineering has been named the winner of the American Association of Aerosol Research 1999 D. Sinclair Award. The award recognizes sustained excellence in aerosol research and technology by an established scientist. Prof. Rosner accepted the award October 13 at the annual AAAR meeting held in Tacoma, WA.

Prof. Rosner is the author of over 230 research articles, many dealing with the synthesis, coagulation, restructuring kinetics, transport properties, and detection/characterization of gas-borne particles, sometimes as small as 10 nanometers. Understanding of such particles is important in air pollution control engineering and semi-conductor processing, as well as in the industrial scale production of high-value ultra-fine powders, pigments, and optical wave guide fibers.

Prof. Rosner is also the author of Transport Processes in Chemically Reacting Flow Systems; this award-winning textbook-treatise will be reprinted by Dover Publications in 2000.

Prof. Rosner had 10 years of industrial research experience before joining the Yale faculty in 1969.
