The Nanofluidic Separations Lab
We explore nanofluidics to design smarter separations materials and systems. By understanding how molecules behave when confined, our lab pioneers new foundations for water filtration, resource recovery, and energy systems that help build a more sustainable world.
Our Mission
Exploring nanofluidics to design smarter separations materials and systems
By integrating precision nanofluidic platforms throughout the design process for novel nanoporous materials, the Ritt Lab, also known as the Nanofluidic Separations (NanoSep) Lab, seeks to develop synthesis–structure–performance relationships that translate from the molecular to the macroscopic scale and enable sustainable separations for water and energy applications. Our goal is to engineer bottom-up solutions to complicated separation problems.
