Review on sustainable production of biochar through hydrothermal liquefaction: Physico-chemical properties and applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Other)
This review examines in detail the production and characteristics of biochar resulting from hydrothermal liquefaction. Specifically, the impact of feedstocks and different process parameters on the properties and yield of ...
Catalytic hydrothermal liquefaction of biomass into bio-oils and other value-added products – A review
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is an effective method for the conversion of biomass into biofuel involving moderate temperature and high pressure. However, the yield and quality of bio-oil are not sufficient for ...
Synergistic effects of catalytic co-pyrolysis Chlorella vulgaris and polyethylene mixtures using artificial neuron network: Thermodynamic and empirical kinetic analyses
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The catalytic pyrolysis of Chlorella vulgaris, high-density polyethylene (Pure HDPE) and, their binary mixtures were conducted to analyse the kinetic and thermodynamic performances from 10 to 100 K/min. The kinetic parameters ...
Magnetic separation of micron-sized particles: process study and regression modelling using moving least squares and multivariable power least squares method
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2022 , Article)
The presence of fine particles has reduced the quality of water resources. Unfortunately, the fine particles normally take a longer time to be removed. Realizing this, the present study aims to employ a magnetic adsorbent ...
Immobilization of NanoFe3O4 onto Fabric Material through in situ Co-precipitation as a Flexible Catalyst for Humic Acid Degradation
(
Italian Association of Chemical Engineering - AIDIC
, 2023 , Article)
Humic acid (HA) is a major component in dissolved natural organic matter (NOM) that is commonly found in natural water sources such as surface water and soil. Although HA is non-toxic, it is a precursor of carcinogenic and ...
Mixed matrix membranes incorporated with zeolite AlPO-18 for CO2/CH4 separation
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMMs) have garnered a lot of interest in carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) gas separation due to their advantages over pure polymeric membranes. In the present work, various Aluminophosphate-18 ...
Economic study on the production of dimethyl ether using wind-based electrolytic of hydrogen and carbon dioxide
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
The world currently relies heavily on non-renewable energy, which is unable to sustain the needs of 7 billion people in the next 50 years. This paper discusses the use of an alternative fuel, Dimethyl ether (DME), which ...
Surface regeneration of templated PVDF membrane for efficient microalgae-rich high saline aquaculture wastewater treatment in membrane distillation
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
This study investigated the use of templated PVDF membranes with intermediate flushing to revive fouled membrane during membrane distillation (MD) for sustainable high saline seawater aquaculture wastewater treatment. ...
A comparison study on performance of thin film composite membrane embedded with graphene oxide for Acetaminophen, Diclofenac and Ibuprofen separation from waste water
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are one of the threats to water safety and security. These contaminants are hard to be removed due to toxicity and resistant to breakdown. In this study, thin film composite ...
Impacts of PVDF polymorphism and surface printing micro-roughness on superhydrophobic membrane to desalinate high saline water
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Many studies have focused on increasing the superhydrophobicity of membranes to enhance the sustainable desalination capability of membrane distillation (MD) process. This work focuses on the influences of crystalline ...
