Solar thermochemical Dy2O3/DyO water splitting cycle for hydrogen production
(
Inderscience Publishers
, 2017 , Article)
The thermodynamic analyses of the dysprosium oxide-based water splitting (Dy-WS) cycle are reported in this paper. The first step of the Dy-WS cycle involves thermal reduction of Dy2O3, whereas water splitting reaction is ...
Computational thermodynamic analysis of solar fuel production via metal oxide based H2O and CO2 splitting thermochemical cycles
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper thermodynamic feasibility of the production of solar fuel via SnO2/SnO based thermochemical CO2 splitting redox reactions was investigated. The first step is the thermal dissociation of SnO2 into SnO where ...
Potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae for carbon dioxide bio-fixation and advanced wastewater treatment
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a CO2 capturing technology and treatment process for wastewaters was evaluated at two temperatures ( 25 and 30 C) and different CO2 dosage ( 0%, 5% and 15%). During ...
Preparation of Nanoparticles via Cellulose-Assisted Combustion Synthesis
(
Pleiades Publishing
, 2018 , Article)
Cellulose-assisted combustion synthesis is a simple and effective continuous synthesis method that emerged almost a decade ago and now witnessing exponential growth in research interest and application. The simplicity of ...
