Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials for thermal energy storage in buildings
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials (PCMs) from natural gas‐based products was investigated. Based on the quality and cost of these PCMs, two sources were identified: (i) hydrogenated ...
Optimal Design of Multiplant Cogeneration Systems with Uncertain Flaring and Venting
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
This paper presents an optimization approach for designing cogeneration systems using flares and vents under abnormal conditions from different industrial plants. The aim of the proposed approach is to enhance resource ...
Synergistic effects and optimization of nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations on the growth and nutrient uptake of a freshwater Chlorella vulgaris
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2017 , Article)
The synergistic effects and optimization of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations on the growth of Chlorella vulgaris (CCAP 211/11B, CS-42) and nutrient removal have been investigated under different concentrations ...

(
IGI Global
, 2017 , Book chapter)
This chapter briefly describes the challenges and developments in the field of corrosion focusing on the subject of materials science. A brief introduction was provided on corrosion damage and the importance of its prevention. ...
Viscosity and density of ternary solution of calcium chloride + sodium chloride + water from T = (293.15 to 323.15) K
(
American Chemical Society
, 2014 , Article)
Viscosities and densities of ternary systems of CaCl2–NaCl–water were measured in the range of T = (293.15 to 323.15) K at 5 K intervals and up to 4.5 mol·kg–1. Two equations based on the Exponential and Goldsack and ...
Synthesis and properties of electrodeposited Ni–B–CeO2 composite coatings
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Ni–B coatings are extremely hard and wear resistant with decent anticorrosion properties which make them suitable for automotive, aerospace, petrochemical, plastic, optics, nuclear, electronics, computer, textile, paper, ...
Interaction Mechanism Insights on the Solvation of Fullerene B(80)with Choline-based Ionic Liquids
(
American Chemical Society

This article provides multimodel and multiscenario projections of significant wave height for the Qatar coast. Significant wave height is used for practical purposes such as offshore and coastal structure design as well ...
Removal of crystal violet from wastewater using resorcinol-formaldehyde carbon xerogels
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Resorcinol-formaldehyde activated carbon xerogels (RF-ACXs) were prepared at different conditions. RF-ACXs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, surface area and porosity analyzer, X-rays diffraction, ...
Synthesis, characterization and evaluation of porous polybenzimidazole materials for CO2 adsorption at high pressures
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
Porous polybenzimidazole polymers have been under investigation for high and low pressure CO2 adsorption due to the well-built stability under high pressure and at various temperatures. Pressure swing and temperature swing ...
