Corrosion of inhibitor treated mild steel immersed in distilled water and a simulated salt solution
(2013 , Article)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the performances of three inhibitors in controlling corrosion of local mild steel products in distilled water and a simulated salt solution. Corrosion inhibition of mild steel ...
High pressure CO2 absorption studies on imidazolium-based ionic liquids: Experimental and simulation approaches
(2013 , Article)
A combined experimental-computational study on the CO2 absorption on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluophosphate, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis[trifluoromethylsulfonyl]imide, and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium ...
Highly stable nanoporous sulfur-bridged covalent organic polymers for carbon dioxide removal
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Carbon dioxide capture and separation requires robust solids that can stand harsh environments where a hot mixture of gases is often found. Herein, the first and comprehensive syntheses of porous sulfur-bridged covalent ...
Limitations and high pressure behavior of MOF-5 for CO2 capture
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2013 , Article)
Porous network structures (e.g. metal–organic frameworks, MOFs) show considerable potential in dethroning monoethanol amine (MEA) from being the dominant scrubber for CO2 at the fossil-fuel-burning power generators. In ...
A combined computational and experimental study of high pressure and supercritical CO2 adsorption on Basolite MOFs
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2013 , Article)
Metal organic frameworks (such as commercial Basolite®) display significant promise for CO2 capture and storage. Here, in order to monitor CO2 capture of Basolite®, we combined high pressure CO2 adsorption with high-pressure ...
A solid-phase extractant based on microemulsion modified date pits for toxic pollutants
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
Application of microemulsion modified raw date pits as an inexpensive solid extractant for removing methylene blue (MB), copper ion (Cu2+) and cadmium ion (Cd2+) has been presented. The results summarised herein are also ...
Numerical simulation of thermal buoyant wall jets
(2013 , Conference Paper)
The main focus of this study is on the near field flow and mixing characteristics of the thermal
wall jets. A numerical study of the buoyant wall jets discharged from submerged outfalls from cooling
systems of power ...
An accurate finite volume method using fourth order Adams scheme on triangular grids for the Saint-Venant System
(2013 , Conference Paper)
In this study, a new finite volume method is developed for shallow water equations on a rotating
frame. Most upwind methods, which perform well for gravity waves, lead to large oscillations and/or
numerical damping for ...
Photoactuating of materials designed for haptic aid-tablets for visually impaired people based on styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene block copolymer nanocomposites
(2013 , Article)
In this study, the photoactuation of styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene (SIS) block copolymer containing multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) is shown. In order to improve dispersion, the MWCNT were ovalently modified either by ...
Optimal performance of single-column chromatography and simulated moving bed processes for the separation of optical isomers
(2013 , Conference Paper)
Chromatography has been established as the method of choice for the separation and purification of optically pure drugs which has a market size of about 250 billion USD. Single column chromatography (SCC) is commonly used ...
