Spider silk fibers: Synthesis, characterization, and related biomedical applications
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Book chapter)
Compared to silkworm silks, spider silks (SS) are considered stronger, most elastic, and tougher biomaterials. Web-weaving spiders use impressive silks where the proteins in the silks can be described as virtually nondiverged. ...
Recycling of hospital laundry wastewater using membrane technology
(
Desalination Publications
, 2017 , Article)
The laundry wastewater from a Qatari hospital has been characterized and its membrane filtration behavior studied. 1,800-2,500 L or wastewater per cycle for washing a laundry load of 40-50 kg was determined, with the ...
Cobalt oxide nanopowder synthesis using cellulose assisted combustion technique
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Cobalt oxides nanopowders were prepared using novel cellulose assisted combustion synthesis and solution combustion synthesis techniques. The synthesis conditions were optimized to produce high surface area cobalt oxide ...
Characteristics of olive mill solid residue and its application in remediation of Pb2+, Cu2+ and Ni2+ from aqueous solution: Mechanistic study
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
This study investigated the use of untreated olive mill solid residues (OMSR) as a solid extractant for Pb2+, Cu2+ and Ni2+ ions from aqueous solution. It was shown that the solution initial pH value affected the metal ...

A predictive model for the assessment of the temperature polarization effect in direct contact membrane distillation desalination of high salinity feed
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
Temperature polarization is one of the major sources responsible for flux drop in membrane distillation systems due to the reduction in the driving force across the membrane. The present study offers a predictive model ...
Modeling, simulation and control of a scheibel liquid–liquid contactor: Part 1. Dynamic analysis and system identification
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
The liquid–liquid extraction process is well-known for its complexity and often entails intensive modeling and computational efforts to simulate its dynamic behaviour. However, rigorous mathematical models are usually ...
Flocculation and viscoelastic behavior of industrial papermaking suspensions
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
The effects of the surface charge type and density C496, C492 and A130LMW polyacrylamides (PAMs) on the rheological behavior of real industrial papermaking suspensions were quantitatively related to the degree of flocculation ...
A systematic visual approach to molecular design via property clusters and group contribution methods
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2008 , Article)
In this work, a new simple yet effective, systematic method to synthesize and design molecules is presented. Visualization of the problem is achieved by employing an annex to the recently developed property clustering ...
Influence of micro-and mesoporosity of resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels on adsorption
(
Mary Ann Liebert
, 2013 , Article)
Effects of micro-and mesoporosity of resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels (RFXs) on the adsorptive properties of crystal violet (CV) were investigated. RFXs were synthesized at different pH values, and corresponding pore ...
