Detailed organic characterization of process water to evaluate reverse osmosis membrane fouling in industrial wastewater treatment
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)One of the major waste streams within the oil and gas (O&G) industry is produced and process water generated during hydrocarbon production and treatment, respectively. In gas production facilities, process water typically ... -
Electrospun Polysulfone Hybrid Nanocomposite Fibers as Membrane for Separating Oil/Water Emulsion
( Springer Nature , 2023 , Article)Commercial polymer membranes are largely utilized to separate oil/water mixtures; however, membrane fouling, flux decline, and short lifetime often inhibit their high performance. In order to resolve these drawbacks of the ... -
Evaluation of cellulose triacetate hollow fiber membrane for volume reduction of real industrial effluents through an osmotic concentration process: A pilot-scale study
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)The current article tackles the challenge of reducing wastewater volumes generated from the gas industry. A forward osmosis (FO) pilot unit, deployed as osmotic concentration (OC) process without the draw solution (DS) ... -
Evaluation of polymeric adsorbents via fixed-bed columns for emulsified oil removal from industrial wastewater
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article)Polymeric adsorbents (PAs) have been gaining increased attention for application in industrial wastewater (WW) treatment. However, most studies on evaluating PAs specifically for emulsified oil removal are currently limited ... -
Industrial wastewater volume reduction through osmotic concentration: Membrane module selection and process modeling
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Osmotic concentration (OC), a form of forward osmosis (FO) but without draw solution recovery, can be applied for reducing wastewater disposal volumes in the oil & gas industry. Within this industry, wastewater is often ... -
Membrane distillation: recent technological developments and advancements in membrane materials
( Springer Nature , 2022 , Article Review)Membrane distillation (MD) is a novel desalination technology that has potential to produce distilled quality water from high salinity brine streams. The driving force for MD is the vapor pressure difference across a ... -
Pilot-scale evaluation of forward osmosis membranes for volume reduction of industrial wastewater
( Elsevier B.V. , 2022 , Article)Water treatment is a key aspect for the sustainable management of oil & gas operations. Osmotic concentration (OC) is an advanced water treatment process, adapted from forward osmosis (FO), that does not require water ... -
Pilot-scale investigation of flowrate and temperature influence on the performance of hollow fiber forward osmosis membrane in osmotic concentration process
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)Forward osmosis (FO) relying on the osmotic pressure difference across semi-permeable membrane draws permeate by the effect of saline draw solution (DS) turning diluted and leaving the feed solution (FS) concentrated. ... -
Salinity gradient energy generation by pressure retarded osmosis: A review
( Elsevier B.V. , 2021 , Article)Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) has gained attention due to its use as a salinity gradient energy-generating membrane process. This process can convert difference in salinity between two streams into energy as it allows ...
