Optimal control of a non-isothermal catalytic packed-bed reactor model
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This work deals with the linear-quadratic control problem for a non-isothermal packed-bed catalytic reactor, which is described by coupled hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equations model. The classical Riccati ...
Novel Ni based duplex coatings for anticorrosion applications
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Ni-B/Ni-P-CeO2 duplex coatings containing inner Ni-B layer were synthesized on mild steel substrate through the electrodeposition process. The structural, surface and electrochemical properties of the duplex coatings in ...
Comparative study on low and high pressure CO2 adsorption capacity of organic materials
(
AIChE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Application of solid sorbents for CO2 capture and separation has been under consideration since last decades owing to the promising feature of repeatable use, low cost of regeneration and thermo physical stability. However, ...
Sustained solar fuel production in multiple thermochemical cycles using sol-gel derived ferrite nanopowders
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the sol-gel synthesis of Mg-doped Niferrite i.e. Ni-Mg-ferrite was attempted by using propylene oxide (PO) as a proton scvanger. Effects of two important synthesis paramaters such as amount of PO added during ...
Estimation of algae concentration in water solutions using spectrophotometry measurements and absorbance first derivative
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The monitoring and detection of algae in wastewater and surface solutions is important in controlling the quality of surface water and wastewater, yet there is currently no quick and simple method to achieve this. The ...
Heat powered water pump for reverse osmosis desalination
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Current desalination techniques are typically very energy intensive: energy consumption can account for up to 70% of the desalination costs. To improve economics of water desalination plants innovative energy efficient, ...
Kinetic and thermodynamic investigation of CO2 adsorption-desorption on polyethyleneimine - Mesoporous silica
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Two CO2 solid sorbents based on polyethyleneimine, PEI (432 and 10k) impregnated into mesoporous silica (MPS) foam were synthesized and tested for CO2 capture. At ambient pressure, the amount of CO2 captured by these solid ...
Protecting environment and assuring efficient energy transfer using ionic liquids
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Gas hydrates are ice-like crystalline compounds that are formed when small gas molecules get trapped within the water molecules under high pressure and low-temperature conditions in oil and gas transmission lines. The ...
Development of Green Inhibitors to Prevent Hydrates Formation, Protect Environment and Reduce Energy Cost in Oil and Gas Industry
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Gas hydrates are identified as ice-liked solid, crystalline compounds having polyhedral water cavities, where gas molecules get trapped during operation under high pressure and low temperature condition. These hydrates ...
Electrochemical Analyses of Sodium based Mixed Pyrophosphate Cathodes for Rechargeable Sodium Ion Batteries
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Lithium ion batteries (LIB) are widely applied to energy storage systems, like electric vehicles, ships. While limited reserves of lithium and cost of lithium enforced to explore new materials. Hence, Low cost and abundance ...
