Metal-Organic Material Polymer Coatings for Enhanced Gas Sorption Performance and Hydrolytic Stability under Humid Conditions
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Physisorbent metal-organic materials (MOMs) have shown benchmark performance for highly selective CO2 capture from bulk and trace gas mixtures. However, gas stream moisture can be detrimental to both adsorbent performance ...
Doping amino acids with classical gas hydrate inhibitors to facilitate the hydrate inhibition effect at low dosages
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
The formation of gas hydrates in offshore subsea lines is a major flow assurance concern for the oil and gas industry. In this work, the thermodynamic hydrate inhibition (THI) effect of doping amino acids (AA) such as ...
Activated carbon-doped polystyrene fibers for direct contact membrane desalination
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
Membranes for direct contact membrane distillation were produced from electrospun polystyrene microfibers doped with activated carbon. The addition of activated carbon reduced the hydrophobicity of the fibers. Therefore, ...
Synthesis of graphene oxides particle of high oxidation degree using a modified Hummers method
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
High-oxidation-degree graphene oxide particles were synthesized using a modified Hummers' method. Six different types of particles were synthesized by varying the operating conditions, including the temperature, the reactant ...
Influence of composite particle formation on the performance and economics of grit removal
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Grit is routinely removed at the headworks of municipal wastewater treatment works to limit its onerous impact on downstream processes. Grit separation technologies are normally based on sedimentation of a homogeneous ...
Kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies for adsorptive removal of cobalt ions by rice husk from aqueous solution
(
Desalination Publications
, 2020 , Article)
Herein, batch adsorptive removal of cobalt ions (Co(II)) from aqueous solution was studied at room temperature. Adsorption of cobalt ions onto rice husk (RH) was confirmed by utilizing Fourier transform infrared, scanning ...
Investigation of the performance of biocompatible gas hydrate inhibitors via combined experimental and DFT methods
(
Academic Press
, 2017 , Article)
In this work, three ionic liquids (ILs) from the bio-compatible family of choline cations attached to anions of varying hydrophobicity namely: choline acetate (ChOAc), choline bistriflamide (ChNtf2), and choline chloride ...
Use of water in aiding olefin/paraffin (liquid + liquid) extraction via complexation with a silver bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide salt
(
Academic Press
, 2014 , Article)
This paper describes the extraction of C5-C8 linear -olefins from olefin/paraffin mixtures of the same carbon number via a reversible complexation with a silver salt (silver bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide, Ag[Tf2N]) ...
Development and surface modification of anion exchange membrane for enhancement of antifouling potential in electrodialys process
(
Parlar Scientific Publications
, 2018 , Article)
The membrane fouling in the course of electrodialysis (ED) is a serious problem during water treatment which results to its shorter lifetime and higher energy consumption. Here, the antifouling property of previously ...
Influence of solution chemistry on Cr(VI) reduction and complexation onto date-pits/tea-waste biomaterials
(2013 , Article)
Tea waste (TW) and Date pits (DP) were investigated for their potential to remove toxic Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution. Investigations showed that the majority of the bound Cr(VI) ions were reduced to Cr(III) after ...
