Gas hydrate inhibition: A review of the role of ionic liquids
(
American Chemical Society
, 2014 , Article)
Ionic liquids (ILs) are popular designer green chemicals with great potential for use in diverse energy-related applications. Apart from the well-known low vapor pressure, the physical properties of ILs, such as ...
Enhancing liquid-phase olefin-paraffin separations using novel silver-based ionic liquids
(
American Chemical Society
, 2015 , Article)
This paper describes the extraction of C5-C8 linear α-olefins from olefin/paraffin mixtures of the same carbon number using silver(I)/N,N-dimethylbenzamide bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([Ag(DMBA)2][Tf2N]) or ...

The efficiency of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon for the removal of humic substance (HS) from water and wastewater was demonstrated in batch studies. This paper investigated ...
Removal of carbamazepine from water by a novel TiO2-coconut shell powder/UV process: Composite preparation and photocatalytic activity
(2013 , Article)
A novel TiO2-coconut shell powder (TCNSP) composite, prepared by the controlled sol-gel method with a subsequent heat treatment, was investigated as an innovative photocatalytic absorbent for the removal of carbamazepine ...
Phenol degradation by powdered metal ion modified titanium dioxide photocatalysts
(2012 , Article)
Conventional water purification and disinfection generally involve potentially hazardous substances, some of which known to be carcinogenic in nature. Titanium dioxide photocatalytic processes provide an effective route ...
A solid-phase extractant based on microemulsion modified date pits for toxic pollutants
(2013 , Article)
Application of microemulsion modified raw date pits as an inexpensive solid extractant for removing methylene blue (MB), copper ion (Cu2+) and cadmium ion (Cd2+) has been presented. The results summarised herein are also ...
Bioenergy II: Bio-ethanol from municipal solid waste (MSW): The role of biomass properties and structures during the ethanol conversion process
