Our Crowdfunding Groups
CHEE’s goal is to purchase equipment for a new safety lab that will better prepare students for the workforce -- and save lives.
With your support, the department will install a bomb calorimeter/reactor. This instrument measures the heat combustion of a sample in an oxygen-rich environment.
Students will test different chemicals and observe pressure and temperature changes.
They’ll see runaway reactions -- in action.
They’ll understand the causes, see the dangers first-hand and learn how to prevent them in a safe and controlled setting.
The equipment costs $45,000. Industry partners, donors and department funds are covering about two-thirds of the project, leaving $15,000 to be raised through crowdfunding.
