Transport
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2012 , Report)
In this contribution, we present an overview of the contribution made by the shipping sector to global CO 2 emissions. We review the currently proposed technology options for mitigating these emissions, and propose a new ...
Enhanced Adsorption of Selenium Ions from Aqueous Solution Using Iron Oxide Impregnated Carbon Nanotubes
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2017 , Article)
The aim of this research was to investigate the potential of raw and iron oxide impregnated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as adsorbents for the removal of selenium (Se) ions from wastewater. The original and modified CNTs with ...
Microbial Desalination Cell: An Integrated Approach for Wastewater Treatment and Desalination Systems for Sustainable Water Desalination and Wastewater Treatment
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The availability of drinking water from the current available sources is decreasing due to the high demand and population increase. Seawater is a potential source for drinking water but the current desalination technology ...
Earth-abundant oxygen evolution catalysts coupled onto ZnO nanowire arrays for efficient photoelectrochemical water cleavage
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2014 , Article)
ZnO has long been considered as a model UV-driven photoanode for photoelectrochemical water splitting, but its performance has been limited by fast charge-carrier recombination, extremely poor stability in aqueous solution, ...
Life cycle environmental impact comparison of bioelectrochemical systems for wastewater treatment
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are developed to transform the energy harvested from the biomass into electricity. Different types of BESs including microbial fuel cell (MFC), microbial electrolysis cell (MEC), and ...
Adsorption energy and pore-size distributions of activated carbons calculated using Hill's model
(
Multi-Science Publishing Co. Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
An integral equation derived using a statistical physics treatment by considering the adsorption energy distribution (AED) was used to model the adsorption of ethylene and ethane on resorcinol-formaldehyde-based activated ...
Development of Green Inhibitors to Prevent Hydrates Formation, Protect Environment and Reduce Energy Cost in Oil and Gas Industry
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Gas hydrates are identified as ice-liked solid, crystalline compounds having polyhedral water cavities, where gas molecules get trapped during operation under high pressure and low temperature condition. These hydrates ...
Solar Thermochemical CO2 Utilization via Ceria Based Redox Cycle
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
According to the recent studies, it is expected that the global energy requirement will increase from 14 TW to 30 TW by the year 2050. Currently, fossil fuels are the major energy source utilized for the fulfillment of the ...
