Life cycle assessment of a microbial desalination cell for sustainable wastewater treatment and saline water desalination
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Microbial desalination cells (MDCs), with bifunctional capacity to simultaneously treat wastewater and desalinate seawater at low energy consumption, have attracted great attention in recent years. However, the environmental ...
Cylindrical graphite based microbial fuel cell for the treatment of industrial wastewaters and bioenergy generation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Cylindrical graphite microbial fuel cell (MFC) configuration designed by eliminating distinct casing and membrane was evaluated for bioelectrogenesis and treatment of real-field wastewaters. Both petroleum refinery wastewater ...
Effect of the organic load on salt removal efficiency of microbial desalination cell
(
Desalination Publications
, 2018 , Article)
Microbial desalination cell presents a novel concept for wastewater treatment, salt removal and bioelectricity generation in a single system. In this study, the effect of organic load on salt removal in air-cathode up-flow ...
Combustion synthesis of bifunctional LaMO3 (M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) perovskites for oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline media
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Lanthanum based electrocatalytically active LaMO3 (M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) perovskites were synthesized using a single step solution combustion technique. The structural and morphological properties of the catalysts were ...
Laundry wastewater treatment using ultrafiltration under different operating conditions
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The laundry wastewater of one of the hospitals in Qatar was selected and studied. It was found that hospital laundry is releasing considerable amount of wastewater i.e. 1800 - 2500 liters/cycle while washing 40 - 50 kg of ...
Enhancement of electrical and optical performance of N719 by co-sensitization
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
This paper deals with the electrical, optical and electrochemical properties of a metal-free dye C78H74O8 (AS-2), which has been used to improve the photo-detection properties of C58H86N8O8RuS2 (N719) based Dye sensitized ...
Silica and carbon decorated silica nanosheet impact on primary human immune cells
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Silica nanosheets (SiO 2 NS) are considered to be a promising material in clinical practice for diagnosis and therapy applications. However, an appropriate surface functionalization is essential to guarantee high ...
Molecular Dynamic Simulations of Fibrous Distillation Membranes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The rate of heat and mass transfer through distillation membranes is typically estimated using an over-simplified, straight-cylindrical-pore approach coupled with several empirical correction factors that are included to ...
Gas templating of resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Gas templating of gels is a novel route in the know-how technology of templating porous gels. This technology depends basically on infusing certain gases into the media of sol-gel reaction upon the gelation process. The ...
Thermodynamic efficiency analysis of zinc oxide based solar driven thermochemical H2O splitting cycle: Effect of partial pressure of O2, thermal reduction and H2O splitting temperatures
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In this paper, the thermodynamic efficiency analysis of ZnO-based solar-driven thermochemical H2O splitting cycle is performed and compared with the SnO2-based H2O splitting cycle. The HSC Chemistry 7.1 software is used ...
