Dr
Don Weiss
OBE FAA FTSE
Dr. Weiss is distinguished for his work on novel methods of using adsorption to affect chemical and physical separations. These studies embrace antibiotics, uranium, and substances polluting water. He has devised new processes for counter current adsorption and has produced ingenious methods of separating fine resins from their contacting liquid. He has produced shell adsorbents of superior performance, and special ion exchange resins which are regenerable with electricity and hot water. These concepts have been applied with success to biological problems including action potentials, active transport processes, oxidative phosphorylation and biological membranes.
