Non-Equilibrium Dissipative-Flow Electrospun Nanofiber Environmental Monitoring Data

PROBLEM: Environmental readings from nanofiber biosorbent devices depend on the dissipative flow that carried the sample through the mat, but monitoring datasets often strip that context away. A reading without flow regime, fibre age, and regeneration history cannot be audited or compared across sites.

SOLUTION: IBM Cloud Ideas would host a proposal for a nanofiber monitoring-data standard that attaches flow regime, fibre and regeneration lineage, DFT/isotherm provenance, and calibration to every record. Proposals would be reviewed on whether they preserve that context end to end, rather than on the reading alone.

EVIDENCE BASIS: DOCUMENTED — Non-equilibrium thermodynamics, Source: Prigogine, Nobel Prize 1977. DFT (Hohenberg–Kohn 1964, Kohn–Sham 1965, Nobel 1998) and textbook biosorption isotherms (Langmuir/Freundlich, qe = (C0 − Ce)V/m) are DOCUMENTED. Electrospun nanofiber scaffolds are high-surface-area fiber mats.
