Generic approach of using dynamic simulation for industrial emission reduction under abnormal operations: Scenario study of an ethylene plant start-up
(
American Chemical Society
, 2014 , Article)
Flare minimization under normal and abnormal operating conditions in large-scale industrial processes, especially for refineries and petrochemical plants, is a double-win practice, which simultaneously benefits industrial ...
The novel advancements of nanomaterials in biofuel cells with a focus on electrodes' applications
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Biofuel cells (BFCs) convert biochemical energy into electrical energy by virtue of the biocatalyst component. They incorporate bio-catalysts composed of microorganisms and enzymes. BFCs are considered among the novel ...
Polymer-metal oxide composite nanofibers
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Book chapter)
Extensive studies have been conducted on different kinds of polymers, their composites, and multifunctionalities, depending on their structural features. Metal oxides and their polymer nanocomposites offer technological ...

In this work, property clustering techniques and group contribution methods are combined to enable simultaneous consideration of process performance requirements and molecular property constraints. Using this methodology, ...
Dual-technology power plant as a potential solution for the clean water and electricity productions: Eritrea case study
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
According to WorldVision, Eritrea has the least access to clean water in Africa. Therefore, this work presents a unique dual-technology power plant (DTPP) model for electricity and distilled water production as a potential ...
Nonlinear direct inverse method: A shortcut method for simultaneous calibration and isotherm determination
(2013 , Article)
This work addresses a way to combine isotherm determination and nonlinear calibration. In this method, like the classical inverse method, experimental elution profiles are compared with the results of a detailed model that ...
The size and performance of offshore produced water oil-removal technologies for reinjection
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Produced water (PW) is wastewater generated from oil exploration, and requires treating for oil and suspended solids removal. The viability of an effluent treatment unit process for this duty is dependent both on its ...
