An investigation into fouling, wetting and their mitigation using commercial Antiscalant in membrane distillation desalination
(Environmental Engineering, 2017 , Master Thesis)
An experimental investigation into membrane fouling and loss of hydrophobicity was carried out in direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) desalination of high salinity seawater. The membrane used was a commercial ...
HIGH PRESSURE CO2/N2 AND CO2/CH4 SEPARATION USING DENSE POLYSULFONE SUPPORTED IONIC LIQUID MEMBRANES (DPSILMS)
(Environmental Engineering, 2016 , Master Thesis)
The separation of carbon dioxide from different sources (e.g. natural gas, flue gas, etc.) has become an important area of research. Some conventional methods of CO2 separation were used over the years including adsorption ...
Photobioreator technology for carbon capture and nutrients removal
(Environmental Engineering, 2017 , Master Thesis)
Carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere is increasing significantly worldwide. Many are debating the influence of increasing carbon dioxide concentration on global climate, but most scientists agreed that the ...
AN EXPERIMENTAL COMPARISON OF PERFORMANCE BETWEEN FLAT SHEET AND HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANE MODULES IN DIRECT CONTACT MEMBRANE DISTILLATION SYSTEM FOR DESALINATION OF SEAWATER
(Environmental Engineering, 2016 , Master Thesis)
Membrane distillation desalination is an emerging technology with a promise to considerably reduce environmental impacts associated with traditional desalination technologies such as thermal and reverse osmosis. Various ...
MEASURING GEOMETRICAL TORTUOSITY OF POROUS MEDIA FROM 3D COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY IMAGES
(Environmental Engineering, 2017 , Master Thesis)
Tortuosity is an important parameter that has a significant impact on many environmental processes and applications. Flow in porous media, diffusion of gases in complex pore structures, and transmembrane flux in water ...
DEEP EUTECTIC SOLVENT FOR CO2 CAPTURE: CHOLINIUM CHLORIDE WITH PHENYLACETIC ACID SYSTEM
(Environmental Engineering, 2017 , Master Thesis)
Global warming is one of the most pressing challenges that face societies these days. As result, worldwide public attention has risen due to the serious greenhouse gas effect, which causes detrimental environmental effects ...
Treatment of produced water using an enhanced electrocoagulation process
(Engineering-Environmental Engineering, 2017 , Master Thesis)
Produced water generated during oilfield processes is considered as a major problem that requires solving due to its high salinity and pollutant contents. Electrocoagulation is one of the promising processes for produced ...
