(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2019 , Article)
A technoeconomic assessment (TEA) has been conducted of the feasibility of large-scale application of microalgal culture technology (MCT) to the combined mitigation of CO2 emissions from flue gases and nutrient discharges ...
Intergraded wastewater treatment and carbon bio-fixation from flue gases using Spirulina platensis and mixed algal culture
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, Spirulina platensis (SP.PL) and mixed algal culture (M.X) were used as an economical treatment technology to solve dual environmental issues related to carbon dioxide (CO2) capturing and wastewater treatment. ...
Influence of fuel ratio on the performance of combustion synthesized bifunctional cobalt oxide catalysts for fuel cell application
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Solution combustion synthesis was used to prepare cobalt oxide nanoparticles at different fuel ratio (φ = 0.5, 1, and 1.75). The synthesized particles were characterized using XRD, SEM, TEM, FTIR and XPS to study the ...
Enhancement of biogas production from agricultural wastes via pre-treatment with advanced oxidation processes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The effects of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) including Fenton, ozone, and ozone combined with Fe(II) and H2O2 on disintegration/solubilization of three mixed agricultural solid wastes and subsequent anaerobic digestion ...
Polymeric adsorbents for oil removal from water
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, the application of four synthetic resins for the removal of emulsified oil from produced water was investigated. Key experimental parameters such as adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial oil concentration ...
Photocatalytic conversion of CO 2 and H 2 O to useful fuels by nanostructured composite catalysis
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Cu-TiO2 nano-catalysis were successfully prepared using sol-gel method and used for solar photo-reduction of CO2 in gas and liquid phase. Adding Cu to TiO2 matrix modify its crystalline structure, improved its optical ...

In the present work, the fabrication of pyridinium functionalized anion exchange membranes (AEMs) for acid recovery using diffusion dialysis (DD) processes was developed using brominated poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ...
Impact of CO 2 concentration and ambient conditions on microalgal growth and nutrient removal from wastewater by a photobioreactor
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
The increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration and the release of nutrients from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are environmental issues linked to several impacts on ecosystems. Numerous technologies have been employed ...
