Insights into Tris-(2-Hydroxylethyl)methylammonium Methylsulfate Aqueous Solutions
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag
, 2012 , Article)
We report herein a combined experimental–computational study on tris-(2-hydroxylethyl)methylammonium methylsulfate in water solutions, as a representative ionic liquid of the aqueous-solution behavior of hydroxylammonium-based ...
Nanocomposite Membranes of Silica and Polysulfone for Improved Gas Permeation
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Polysulfone-Silica mixed matrix hybrid membranes have been prepared by incorporating silicon dioxide nanoparticles with average particle size of 136 nm. Two types of polysulfone-silica nanocomposite membranes were prepared ...
Date palm wood flour/glass fibre reinforced hybrid composites of recycled polypropylene: Mechanical and thermal properties
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2012 , Article)
Recycled polypropylene (RPP) based hybrid composites of date palm wood flour/glass fibre were prepared by different weight ratios of the two reinforcements. Mixing process was carried out in an extruder and samples were ...
The carbon conundrum: GCC perspectives
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2012 , Article)
The solution to the carbon conundrum does not seem to be within reach in the short or medium term, despite significant advances and knowledge gains in demonstration scale CCS facilities. This stems from the fact that ...
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 ...
Alternatives to amine-based capture & new technologies
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2012 , Report)
Large improvements in separations technology will require novel materials with enhanced properties and performance. The fundamental interlinks for success in merging synthesis and process incorporation are the structure, ...
Enhancing student learning in chemical engineering design via role play and enquiry guided learning: A case study from Qatar
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Plant design is the capstone design course taken in the senior year of a chemical engineering students at Qatar University and is spread over two semesters (Plant Design I and Plant Design II). The course content, delivery ...
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 ...
Nanofeatures of resorcinol-formaldehyde carbon microspheres
(
Elsevier
, 2012 , Article)
Resorcinol-formaldehyde activated carbon xerogels were synthesized at certain conditions, and their morphology was studied experimentally to examine their detailed nature on the nanoscale level, which has not been reported ...
Collective osmotic shock in ordered materials
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2012 , Article)
Osmotic shock in a vesicle or cell is the stress build-up and subsequent rupture of the phospholipid membrane that occurs when a relatively high concentration of salt is unable to cross the membrane and instead an inflow ...
