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 ...
An accurate finite volume method using fourth order Adams scheme on triangular grids for the Saint-Venant System
(2013 , Conference Paper)
In this study, a new finite volume method is developed for shallow water equations on a rotating
frame. Most upwind methods, which perform well for gravity waves, lead to large oscillations and/or
numerical damping for ...
Numerical simulation of thermal buoyant wall jets
(2013 , Conference Paper)
The main focus of this study is on the near field flow and mixing characteristics of the thermal
wall jets. A numerical study of the buoyant wall jets discharged from submerged outfalls from cooling
systems of power ...
Polydopamine functionalized graphene oxide as membrane nanofiller: Spectral and structural studies
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
High-degree functionalization of graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles (NPs) using polydopamine (PDA) was conducted to produce polydopamine functionalized graphene oxide nanoparticles (GO-PDA NPs). Aiming to explore their ...
The size and performance of offshore produced water oil-removal technologies for reinjection
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Produced water (PW) is wastewater generated from oil exploration, and requires treating for oil and suspended solids removal. The viability of an effluent treatment unit process for this duty is dependent both on its ...
Thermochemical splitting of CO2 using solution combustion synthesized lanthanum-strontium-anganese perovskites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Redox reactivity of La(1-x)SrxMnO3 (LSM) perovskites towards a solar thermochemical CO2 splitting (CS) cycle is investigated. The LSM perovskites are synthesized via a solution combustion synthesis (SCS) method using glycine ...
Cleaning of ceramic membranes for produced water filtration
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. The application of ceramic microfiltration membranes to the tertiary treatment of produced water from an Arabian Gulf oilfield has been studied using a dedicated pilot plant. Studies were based on a ...
Room-temperature development of thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes from cellulose acetate with antibacterial properties
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
A cellulose acetate thin film composite (CA TFC) membrane was developed by direct casting of CA onto an ultrafiltration membrane support. The flux through the CA TFC membrane was, as expected, inversely proportional to the ...
The impact of mechanical shear on membrane flux and energy demand
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article Review)
The use of forced mechanical shear for both disc membranes (rotating and vibrating disc filtration, RDF and VDF respectively) and hollow fibres (vibrating HF membranes, VHFM) is reviewed. These systems have been extensively ...
Ceramic membrane filtration of produced water: Impact of membrane module
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
Produced water (PW) generated from oil exploration requires rigorous removal of suspended matter (free oil and particulate solids) as tertiary treatment (downstream of hydrocyclone and gas flotation) if it is to be re-injected ...
