Enhancement of Naphthalene Biodegradation by Sulfate Application in Brackish Subsurface Systems
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)Anaerobic biodegradation is the most dominant mechanism in the petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated subsurface systems. Due to depletion of terminal electron acceptors such as sulfate, anaerobic degradation of organic ... -
Dynamic Imaging of Hydrate Specific Area Evolution during Xenon Hydrate Formation
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)Gas hydrates are ice-like structures formed under high pressure and low temperature conditions. They are considered as a potential energy source due to their abundance and the increase in energy demand worldwide. A fundamental ... -
Resource Recovery from Waste, Water and Wastewaters with Membrane Technologies
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)In this study, critical elements (Boron (B) and Rare Earth Elements (REE)) recovery is studied with membrane technologies. Concentrated boron can be recovered by using different technologies. Membrane technologies such as ... -
Influence of Fines on the Compressibility of Surface Sands in Kuwait
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)Influence of fines on the strength and compressibility of compacted fill soil is very important in determining its behavior under applied loads. In Kuwait, fill soil is usually backfilled from excavated surface soils ... -
Influence of Water Table Fluctuation on Natural Source Zone Depletion in Hydrocarbon Contaminated Subsurface Environments
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)Most of the prediction theories regarding dissolution of organic contaminants in the subsurface systems have been proposed based on the static water conditions and the influence of water fluctuations on mass removal requires ... -
Constructability and Economical Comparison Between Two Proposed Permanent Shoring Systems in Qatar: A Case Study
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)This paper introduces the constructability and economic feasibility study of using one of the proposed two types of permanent shoring system for a highway project in Qatar. The cast-in-situ cantilever retaining wall and ... -
Flood Risk Assessment and Protection Guidelines for Infrastructure Planning in Qatar
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)This paper presents key features of "Flood Assessment and Protection Guidelines" (FAPG) prepared by the Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME), Qatar. It is intended that the FAPG will provide guidance and assistance ...
