The Michigan Tech Department of Chemical Engineering congratulates Isabel Chapa (advised by Dr. Yixin Liu) on being selected as a recipient of the 2026 AIChE Women in Chemical Engineering (WIC) Travel Award.
Congratulations to Dr. Timothy Eisele, associate professor of chemical engineering at Michigan Technological University, on receiving $1,035,309 in funding from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for his project, “Production of Improved DRI Feed from Diverse Iron Ore Sources by Reductive Bioleaching.”
Biosensor technology is already widely used in everyday life. It’s found in personal health devices such as fitness trackers and glucose monitors and is also used to measure environmental toxins. The tech has already changed the game worldwide — but at Michigan Tech, Associate Professor Yixin Liu and her recent Ph.D. student mentee Grace Dykstra ’25 recognized its potential for further advancement.
Congratulations to Dr. Timothy Eisele and Ph.D. students Palas Borkar and Neha Sharma, whose research on sustainable manganese recovery has been featured in Engineering & Mining Journal.
