This grant supports the acquisition of a capillary electrophoresis system to be dedicated to environmental engineering research by the Environmental and Water Resources Program. The capillary electrophoresis research package will compliment existing analytical techniques, such as liquid and gas chromatography, by providing a technique for the qualitative and quantitative study of biomolecules and charged organic compounds. Compounds with this characteristic include, but are not limited to, enzymes, proteins, carbohydrates, fatty acids, humic and fulvic acids and surfactants. These compound classes play key roles in the fate and treatment processes of hazardous chemicals. Many of the research projects that are underway in the program involve these same processes. This includes research on soil systems and microbial systems. In order to understand the chemistry of these processes, one must be able to track the behavior of charged organic and biological compounds. The addition of this research package will open the door to the analysis of these compounds, thereby uncovering the mechanisms that control the fate of a hazardous compound in these complexed systems.

这笔赠款支持环境和水资源计划购买一个毛细管电泳系统，用于环境工程研究。 毛细管电泳研究包将补充现有的分析技术，如液体和气相色谱法，通过提供一种技术，定性和定量研究生物分子和带电有机化合物。 具有该特性的化合物包括但不限于酶、蛋白质、碳水化合物、脂肪酸、腐殖酸和富里酸以及表面活性剂。 这些化合物类别在危险化学品的归宿和处理过程中发挥着关键作用。 该计划中正在进行的许多研究项目都涉及这些相同的过程。 这包括对土壤系统和微生物系统的研究。 为了理解这些过程的化学性质，人们必须能够跟踪带电有机化合物和生物化合物的行为。 该研究包的增加将打开分析这些化合物的大门，从而揭示控制这些复杂系统中危险化合物命运的机制。
