Effective removal of lanthanum ions from aqueous solution using rice husk: Impact of experimental variables
(
Desalination Publications
, 2018 , Article)
The focus of the present work is to optimize different experimental parameters such as nature of electrolyte, pH, amount of adsorbent, ions concentration, equilibration time, temperature, and operating mode. The effective ...
Adsorption equilibrium studies of CO2, CH4 and N2 on various modified zeolites at high pressures up to 200 bars
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Power generation industries are mostly built on integrated gasification combine cycle (IGCC) which uses high pressure system to turn fossil fuels into pressurized gas i.e. synthesis gas (syngas) which in turn produce energy ...
Evaluating the Performance of a Newly Developed Carbon Capture Device for Mobile Emission Sources
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2017 , Article)
In the present study, a new carbon capture device that can be carried on-board vehicles has been developed and tested. The developed device uses absorption and adsorption methods of postcombustion CO2 capture. Sodium ...
Unravelling and Reconstructing the Nexus of Salinity, Electricity, and Microbial Ecology for Bioelectrochemical Desalination
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) are an emerging concept for simultaneous water/wastewater treatment and energy recovery. The key to developing MDCs is to understand fundamental problems, such as the effects of salinity ...
Effect of electrolytes on electrokinetics and flocculation behavior of bentonite-polyacrylamide dispersions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. In this study, the influence of electrolytes on bentonite dispersions flocculated with different polyacrylamides varying in charge type, density and molecular weights has been investigated. The presence ...
Insights into the isotherm and kinetic models for the coadsorption of pharmaceuticals in the absence and presence of metal ions: A review
(
Academic Press
, 2019 , Article Review)
Pharmaceuticals are a wide class of emerging pollutants due to their continuous and the increasing consumption of users. These pollutants are usually found in the real environment as mixtures alone or with metal ions. Thus, ...
Techno-Economic-Environmental Study for Recovery of Novel Water Source within a Power Plant - Desalination Complex
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Book chapter)
The global water supply is at an already critical level; around 3.9 billion people (47% of the world population) will be subject to water stress in 2050, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ...
Synthesis and characterisation of Ni–B/Ni–P–CeO2 duplex composite coatings
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2018 , Article)
Abstract: Binary (Ni–B, Ni–P) and duplex coatings (Ni–B/Ni–P, Ni–B/Ni–P–CeO2) with an inner Ni–B layer were electrodeposited on mild steel substrates. A comparison of the structural, surface, mechanical, and electrochemical ...
The effect of chitosan's addition to resorcinol/formaldehyde xerogels on the characteristics of resultant activated carbon
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Hybrid chitosan-resorcinol/formaldehyde xerogels were synthesized, and the effect of including minor quantities of chitosan on the consequent activated carbon was investigated. The resulting activated carbon were characterized ...
Rheological, Thermodynamic, and Gas Solubility Properties of Phenylacetic Acid-Based Deep Eutectic Solvents
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
Choline chloride + phenylacetic acid-based deep eutectic solvents are studied. Their most relevant experimental physicochemical properties at different mixing ratios together with the CO2 solubility data obtained in wide ...
