Canada Research Chair Tier 1
Professor Dr. Jesse Zhu from the Department of Chemical & Biochemical Engineering was been appointed Canada Research Chair Tier 1 in Powder Technology Applications, effective May 1, 2004. 
 
Powder possesses many properties of a liquid when aerated and this feature can be utilized to make many processes much easier and more efficient.  The Canada Research Chair Program will establish a world class research centre at Western on Powder Technology, to conduct fundamental research and to develop novel technologies that can be readily applied to the chemical, biochemical, environment, materials, and pharmaceutical industries. Commercialization of the technology through applications to many industrial processes is a very important part of the proposed CRC program.
