An integrated framework of data-driven, metaheuristic, and mechanistic modeling approach for biomass pyrolysis
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)This study presents an integrated hybrid framework of data-driven (cascade forward neural network (CFNN)), metaheuristic (artificial bee colony (ABC)), and a mechanistic modeling (Aspen simulation) approach for the biomass ... -
Comprehensive insights into conversion of microalgae to feed, food, and biofuels: Current status and key challenges towards implementation of sustainable biorefineries
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Microalgae have been promoted as important feedstocks for producing biofuels and bioproducts. However, their production on a large scale would require a large amount of water and nutrients. Considering the importance of ... -
Enhancing desalination and wastewater treatment by coupling microbial desalination cells with forward osmosis
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)Both microbial desalination cells (MDCs) and forwards osmosis (FO) are emerging technologies for energy-efficient water/wastewater treatment. However, incomplete treatment/desalination in both technologies creates challenges ... -
Implementation of bioenergy systems towards achieving United Nations' sustainable development goals in rural Bangladesh
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article)This research presents a conceptual model to illustrate how people living in rural areas can harness bioenergy to create beneficial 'community-driven' income-generating activities. The research is contextualised within the ... -
Microbial desalination cells as a versatile technology: Functions, optimization and prospective
( Elsevier , 2015 , Other)Saline water such as seawater or brackish water is a potential source for drinking water or for non-potable applications, but the existing desalination techniques are energy intensive. Therefore, there is an urgent need ... -
Resource recovery from wastes and wastewaters using bioelectrochemical systems
( Elsevier , 2018 , Book chapter)Recent scientific and technological advancements in bioelectrochemical system (BES) research have opened up several avenues for realizing the concept of bio-based economy. Current research within this area has been directed ... -
Treatment and desalination of domestic wastewater for water reuse in a four-chamber microbial desalination cell
( Springer Verlag , 2016 , Article)Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) have been studied for contaminant removal from wastewater and salinity reduction in saline water. However, in an MDC wastewater treatment and desalination occurs in different streams, ... -
When bioelectrochemical systems meet forward osmosis: Accomplishing wastewater treatment and reuse through synergy
( MDPI AG , 2015 , Other)Bioelectrochemical systems (BES) and forward osmosis (FO) are two emerging technologies with great potential for energy-efficient water/wastewater treatment. BES takes advantage of microbial interaction with a solid electron ...
