A systematic approach to design task-specific ionic liquids and their optimal operating conditions
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has gained great interest in recent years as a potential technology to mitigate industrial carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Ionic liquids (ILs) were identified as potential CO2 capturing ...
Sustainable solar fuel production by a mixed metal oxide based thermochemical H2O/CO2 splitting cycle
(
AIChE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the synthesis of Ba-ferrite via sol-gel method for the production of solar fuel such as H2 or syngas via thermochemical H2O and/or CO2 splitting cycle. Sol-gel synthesis of Ba-ferrite nanoparticles ...
Computational thermodynamic analysis of a solar thermochemical manganese oxide - Manganese sulfate water splitting cycle
(
AIChE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper computational thermodynamics modeling of the solar H2 production via twostep thermochemical manganese oxide - manganese sulfate (MnO-MnS) water splitting cycle is reported. In this cycle, the first step ...
CFD modeling and analysis of the behavior of 30° and 45° inclined dense jets - new numerical insights
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
