Use of nanoadvanced activated carbon, alumina and ferric adsorbents for humics removal from water: isotherm study
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
The adsorption of humic substances on three different adsorbents was investigated and adsorption isotherms were applied in this research. The three adsorbents studied include granular activated carbon (GAC), ferric ...
Innovative bppo anion exchange membranes formulation using diffusion dialysis-enhanced acid regeneration system
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Recycling of acid from aqueous waste streams is crucial not only from the environmental point of view but also for maturing the feasible method (diffusion dialysis). Anion exchange membrane (AEM)–based diffusion dialysis ...
Effect of membrane fouling on fertilizer-drawn forward osmosis desalination performance
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Fertilizer-drawn forward osmosis (FDFO) has garnered immense attention for its application in the agricultural field and its potential to reuse wastewater sustainably. Membrane fouling, however, remains to be a challenge ...
Experimentally measured methane hydrate phase equilibria and ionic liquids inhibition performance in Qatar’s seawater
(
Nature Research
, 2020 , Article)
Qatar has the third-largest natural gas reserves in the world and is the second largest Liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter in the world. These reserves are mainly located in its offshore North Field where the gas is ...
Catalytic Reduction of CO2 into Solar Fuels via Ferrite Based Thermochemical Redox Reactions
(
Materials Research Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
In this study, Ni based ferrite nanomaterials were synthesized using sol-gel method for solar thermochemical splitting of CO2 using a thermogravimetric analyzer. To synthesize the ferrite materials, the corresponding metal ...
La-Based Perovskites as Oxygen-Exchange Redox Materials for Solar Syngas Production
(
Materials Research Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This contribution reports the synthesis and characterization of La-based perovskites which can be used for the production of syngas via solar thermochemical splitting of H2O/CO2. The La-based perovskites were synthesized ...
Density-Functional Theory Investigation of Barite Scale Inhibition Using Phosphonate and Carboxyl-Based Inhibitors
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Scale deposition is a critical issue in oil and gas exploration and production processes, causing significant blocking in tubing and consequently flow assurance and economic losses. Most studies addressing the scale formation ...
Combustion and emissions of a diesel engine utilizing novel intake manifold designs and running on alternative fuels
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
This work presents a number of integrated strategies aimed at enhancing the performance of the diesel engine and the subsequent reduction of its associated emissions. Three novel spiral-helical shaped intake manifolds with ...
Polymeric adsorbents for oil removal from water
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, the application of four synthetic resins for the removal of emulsified oil from produced water was investigated. Key experimental parameters such as adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial oil concentration ...
Influence of draw solution type and properties on the performance of forward osmosis process: Energy consumption and sustainable water reuse
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Single and multi-component fertilizers were used as a draw solution (DS) in forward osmosis (FO) to produce high-quality water from synthetic and seawater solution, eliminating the need for DS regeneration and reducing the ...
