Synthesis of water capture technologies for gas fired power plants in Qatar
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2020 , Article)
Flue gas from gas fired power plants contains 10-16% (w/w) water vapor with considerable amount of latent heat. Although CO2 capture and utilization have received great attention, water capture from power plant has received ...
Highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles on ultrasmall EMT zeolite: A peroxidase-mimic nanoenzyme for detection of H2O2 or glucose
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
In past decade, Pt-based nanomaterials as peroxidase mimics have attracted much attention for H2O2 and glucose detection. However, easy aggregation of Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) greatly decreases their peroxidase-like ...
