Acrylonitrile process enhancement through waste minimization: Effect of reaction conditions and degree of backmixing
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)Waste minimization in reactor design is an effective approach for pollution control, when compared to the traditional practice of the end-of-pipe treatment. Reactor degree of backmixing and operating conditions are important ... -
Bioelectricity generation from treatment of petroleum refinery wastewater with simultaneous seawater desalination in microbial desalination cells
( Elsevier Ltd , 2017 , Article)Petroleum refinery wastewater (PRW) contains a high concentration of pollutants and may pose serious environmental risks. Conventional treatment methods of PRW are energy intensive, and thus there is an urgent need to ... -
Enhanced bioelectrochemical treatment of petroleum refinery wastewater with Labaneh whey as co-substrate
( Nature Research , 2020 , Article)Petroleum refinery wastewater (PRW) that contains recalcitrant components as the major portion of constituents is difficult to treat by conventional biological processes. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) which also produce ... -
Enhancing desalination and wastewater treatment by coupling microbial desalination cells with forward osmosis
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)Both microbial desalination cells (MDCs) and forwards osmosis (FO) are emerging technologies for energy-efficient water/wastewater treatment. However, incomplete treatment/desalination in both technologies creates challenges ... -
Life cycle environmental impact comparison of bioelectrochemical systems for wastewater treatment
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Conference)Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are developed to transform the energy harvested from the biomass into electricity. Different types of BESs including microbial fuel cell (MFC), microbial electrolysis cell (MEC), and ... -
Microbial desalination cells as a versatile technology: Functions, optimization and prospective
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article Review)Saline water such as seawater or brackish water is a potential source for drinking water or for non-potable applications, but the existing desalination techniques are energy intensive. Therefore, there is an urgent need ... -
Oxygen reduction reaction catalysts used in microbial fuel cells for energy-efficient wastewater treatment: A review
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2016 , Article Review)Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) as an energy-efficient wastewater treatment technology have attracted increasing interest in the past decade. Cathode catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) present a major challenge ... -
Single-and multi-objective optimization of a dual-chamber microbial fuel cell operating in continuous-flow mode at steady state
( MDPI AG , 2020 , Article)Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a promising technology for bioenergy generation and wastewater treatment. Various parameters affect the performance of dual-chamber MFCs, such as substrate flow rate and concentration. ... -
Understanding electricity generation in osmotic microbial fuel cells through integrated experimental investigation and mathematical modeling
( Elsevier Ltd , 2015 , Article)(Graph Presented). Osmotic microbial fuel cells (OsMFCs) are a new type of MFCs with integrating forward osmosis (FO). However, it is not well understood why electricity generation is improved in OsMFCs compared to regular ... -
When bioelectrochemical systems meet forward osmosis: Accomplishing wastewater treatment and reuse through synergy
( MDPI AG , 2015 , Article Review)Bioelectrochemical systems (BES) and forward osmosis (FO) are two emerging technologies with great potential for energy-efficient water/wastewater treatment. BES takes advantage of microbial interaction with a solid electron ...
