Application note—A novel, low-cost pH-controlled solenoid-based CO2 dosing device for microalgal and cyanobacterial cultivation systems
( Elsevier B.V. , 2024 , Article)This application note proposes a novel, low-cost, pH-controlled solenoid-based CO2 dosing device for microalgal and cyanobacterial cultivation systems. The device consists of an Arduino-Uno microcontroller, a (ph-4502c) ... -
Aquaculture from inland fish cultivation to wastewater treatment: a review
( Springer Nature , 2023 , Article)The aquaculture industry is rapidly developing, generating a high amount of wastewater. Inland aquaculture effluents contain nutrients and other substances that can cause eutrophication and the emergence of resistive ... -
A comparison of bio-crude oil production from five marine microalgae – Using life cycle analysis
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Marine microalgae biomass could offer a viable feedstock for sustainably producing biofuel by hydrothermal liquefaction. In this study, five promising marine microalgae (i.e., Tetraselmis, Picochlorum, Synechococcus, ... -
Concentration of pb, cu, zn and cd in the roadside soil of doha: Effect of traffic volume and season
( HARD , 2021 , Article)The concentration of copper (Cu), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) in the roadside soil of Doha was evaluated. Three different roads were selected for the study namely, Mesrif street, Salwa road and Cornish street ... -
Developing sustainable draw solute for forward osmosis process using poly(amidoamine) dendrimer coated magnetic nanoparticles
( Elsevier B.V. , 2023 , Article)Forward osmosis is the least energy intensive water treatment membrane process, however, designing a sustainable draw solute is still a critical research necessity. In this work, we developed Poly(amidoamine) dendrimer ... -
Engineering A Fertilizing Draw Solution For Irrigation Using Forward Osmosis / Reverse Osmosis Hybrid System
(2019 , Master Thesis)Large volumes of fresh water are consumed in the human’s daily activities, producing large volumes of highly contaminated wastewater which exhibits a major environmental problem. Wastewater is treated using multiple ... -
Fabrication of fouling resistant Ti3C2Tx (MXene)/cellulose acetate nanocomposite membrane for forward osmosis application
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)In this study, Ti3C2Tx (MXene) was used to enhance the fouling resistance of FO flat-thin film membranes. Mixed-matrix Ti3C2Tx (MXene)/ cellulose acetate (CA) membranes with different (wt%) loading of MXene were fabricated ... -
Fabrication of Fouling Resistant Ti3C2Tx(MXene) Cellulose Acetate Nanocomposite Membrane for Forward Osmosis Application
(2020 , Master Thesis)Forward Osmosis (FO) is one of the promising technologies that can be used to combat growing water scarcity. However, FO membrane fouling hinders the widespread application of this technology by significantly reducing the ... -
Iron slag/activated carbon-electrokinetic system with anolyte recycling for single and mixture heavy metals remediation
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)The electrokinetic process has been proposed for in-situ soil remediation to minimize excavation work and exposure to hazardous materials. The precipitation of heavy metals in alkaline pH near the cathode is still challenging. ... -
Microalgae: A potential bioagent for treatment of emerging contaminants from domestic wastewater
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Water crisis around the world leads to a growing interest in emerging contaminants (ECs) that can affect human health and the environment. Research showed that thousands of compounds from domestic consumers, such as endocrine ... -
Production of sustainable thermoplastic composites from waste nitrogen fertilizer-grown marine filamentous cyanobacterium Geitlerinema sp.
( Academic Press , 2024 , Article)The global demand for petroleum-derived plastics continues to increase, as does pollution caused by plastic consumption and landfilling plastic waste. Recycling waste plastics by thermomechanical molding may be advantageous, ... -
A study to investigate the energy recovery potential from different macromolecules of a low-lipid marine Tetraselmis sp. biomass through HTL process
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)This study investigated the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of extracted major macromolecules from Tetraselmis sp. biomass. The carbohydrate fraction was first recovered from Tetraselmis biomass using pressurized heated ...
