Utilizing Steel Slag in the Removal of Suspended Solids from Dewatered Construction Water: A Mechanistic Study
(2018 , Master Thesis)Construction dewatering is an operation used to remove shallow groundwater infiltrated into a construction site; this technique is used in most of the construction projects. After collecting the water from the construction ... -
Treatment of produced water using an enhanced electrocoagulation process
(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 ... -
Photobioreator technology for carbon capture and nutrients removal
(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 investigation into fouling, wetting and their mitigation using commercial Antiscalant in membrane distillation desalination
(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 ... -
Treatment Of Dewatering Construction Water Using An Integrated Forward Osmosis System
(2017 , Master Thesis)Forward osmosis (FO) has gained substantial research attention in recent years as a new emerging water treatment technology with low energy consumption. In this study, forward osmosis has been used to treat dewatering ... -
DEEP EUTECTIC SOLVENT FOR CO2 CAPTURE: CHOLINIUM CHLORIDE WITH PHENYLACETIC ACID SYSTEM
(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 ... -
MEASURING GEOMETRICAL TORTUOSITY OF POROUS MEDIA FROM 3D COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY IMAGES
(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 ... -
AN INVESTIGATION INTO HYDROPHOBIC MEMBRANE FOULING IN DESALINATION USING MEMBRANE DISTILLATION TECHNOLOGY
(2015 , Master Thesis)Demand for freshwater supplies is continuously increasing globally to the extent where some parts of the world became highly water stressed. In particular, the Arabian Gulf states rely heavily on seawater desalination for ... -
AN EXPERIMENTAL COMPARISON OF PERFORMANCE BETWEEN FLAT SHEET AND HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANE MODULES IN DIRECT CONTACT MEMBRANE DISTILLATION SYSTEM FOR DESALINATION OF SEAWATER
(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 ... -
HIGH PRESSURE CO2/N2 AND CO2/CH4 SEPARATION USING DENSE POLYSULFONE SUPPORTED IONIC LIQUID MEMBRANES (DPSILMS)
(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 ...
