(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article Review)
Discharge of non-biodegradable plastic waste and lignocellulosic biomass into the environment, and the resultant pollution has persistently increased all over the globe. This activity poses a threat not only to mankind, ...
Chitosan-derived hydrothermally carbonized materials and its applications: A review of recent literature
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article Review)
Chitosan (CS) is a linear polysaccharide biopolymer, one of the most abundant biowastes in the environment. This makes chitosan a potential material for a wide range of applications. To improve CS's properties, chitosan ...
Bio self-healing concrete using MICP by an indigenous Bacillus cereus strain isolated from Qatari soil
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
In this study, the self-healing process in concrete through microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) performed by an adapted indigenous strain of Bacillus cereus isolated from soils in Qatar was investigated. ...
Solid Sorbents as a Retrofit Technology for CO2 Removal from Natural Gas Under High Pressure and Temperature Conditions
(
Nature Research
, 2020 , Article)
The capture of CO2 under high pressure and temperature is challenging and is required in a number for industrial applications including natural gas processing. In this work, we examine the use of benchmark hybrid ultraporous ...
Removal of copper ions from aqueous solution using NaOH-treated rice husk
(
