Laundry wastewater treatment using ultrafiltration under different operating conditions
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The laundry wastewater of one of the hospitals in Qatar was selected and studied. It was found that hospital laundry is releasing considerable amount of wastewater i.e. 1800 - 2500 liters/cycle while washing 40 - 50 kg of ...
Metal-oxide nanotubes functional material tailored for membrane water/wastewater treatment
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Titanium Dioxide Nano-Tubes (TNTs) synthesized by hydrothermal method were used to prepare new polysulfone thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes. The TFN membranes contained different TNTs proportions (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 ...
Comparison between multi-stage and single stage microalgae dewatering processes
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The present work shows a quick, simple and accurate method for algae harvesting with a potential to relate the required polymer dose with in-situ hydrodynamics properties of alga solution. The method also reduces the lag ...
Industrial effluent treatment with immersed MBRs: Treatability and cost
(
IWA Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
A comprehensive OPEX analysis for both municipal and industrial wastewaters has been conducted encompassing energy, critical component (membrane) replacement, chemicals consumption, waste disposal and labour. The analysis ...
Kinetics of CO 2 reaction with N-methyldiethanolamine and aminobutanol using stopped flow technique
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Removal of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from natural gas streams is mandatory to avoid pipeline corrosion, increase the heating value of the gas and reduce the gas volume in case of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The use of ...
Development of novel thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes for desalination
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Microporous Polyetherimide (PEI) membranes were prepared by wet phase inversion at different temperatures. The thin film composites (TFC) of polyamide on microporous PEI were prepared using meta-Phenylenediamine (MPD) and ...
Gas solubility and rheological behavior study of betaine and alanine based natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES)
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) produced herein this work by mixing betaine and alanine with lactic acid and malic acid with 1:1 M mixing ratios. Thermophysical properties including water content, thermal stability, ...
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 ...
A comprehensive review on the rheological behavior of imidazolium based ionic liquids and natural deep eutectic solvents
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article Review)
The rheological behavior of a fluid is an important property that has a distinct impact on its flow conduct, which influence viscosity dependent phenomena and applications such as pumping, mass transfer rates, and ...
Isolation, identification and biodiversity of antiscalant degrading seawater bacteria using MALDI-TOF-MS and multivariate analysis
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) is a commonly used desalination technique owing to its lesser environmental and economic impacts as compared to thermal desalination techniques. Antiscalants are used in SWRO to reduce ...
