Purification and characterization of an extracellular phenol oxidase from culture filtrates of Pyricularia oryzae
( NRC Research Press , 1996 , Article)Extracellular phenol oxidase activity was characterized and compared in Pyricularia oryzae wild-type and albino cell types to determine if this phenol oxidase was responsible for lack of melanization in the albino culture. ... -
Purification of colloidal oil in water emulsions by cationic adsorbent prepared from recycled polyethylene waste
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This study deals with removing crude oil droplets from colloidal oil in water emulsions. The target was the development of efficient adsorbents for the tertiary treatment of industrial-produced water (PW). The novel adsorbent ... -
Purification of emulsified oily polluted waters with modified melamine foams
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Oil and gas industry operations produce tremendous amounts of wastewater (produced water; PW). Tertiary treatment of the PW in the final treatment stage is challenging due to the presence of colloids with sizes < 500 nm ... -
PURIFICATION OF PRODUCED WATER BY CUTTLEFISH BONE ADSORBENTS
(2024 , Master Thesis)The cuttlefish bone powder (CFB) which is mostly composed of calcium carbonate was prepared, characterized, and modified to use it for the purification of emulsified oil/water mixtures from produced water. The focus was ... -
Purpose of the book and editorial perspectives

Pursuing Frugal Innovation for Sustainability at the Grassroots Level
( Cambridge University Press , 2021 , Article)Firms are often criticized for their reluctance to embrace sustainability in their business strategies. Frugal innovation is a recent concept that represents a new way for firms to serve underserved customers in developing ... -
The push for practical legal skills education in Qatar: Results from an externship program
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Article)For decades, educators across the world have been advocating for educational reform that would increase the number of practical skills courses included in traditional legal education. In 2011, Qatar University College ... -
PV power prediction in Qatar based on machine learning approach
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2018 , Conference Paper)PV output power is highly sensitive to many environmental parameters, hence, power available from plants based on this technology will be affected, especially in harsh environments such that of Gulf countries. In order to ... -
PV/Battery Grid Integration Using a Modular Multilevel Isolated SEPIC-Based Converter
( MDPI , 2022 , Article)Photovoltaic (PV) plants can be built rapidly when compared with other conventional electrical plants; hence, they are a competent candidate for supplying the electricity grid. The output power of the PV modules can be ... -
PVA/chitosan/silver nanoparticles electrospun nanocomposites: Molecular relaxations investigated by modern broadband dielectric spectroscopy
( MDPI AG , 2018 , Article)In this study, we used broadband dielectric spectroscopy to analyze polymer nanofibers of poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/silver nanoparticles. We also studied the effect of incorporating silver nanoparticles in the polymeric ... -
