Designing ionic liquid solvents for carbon capture using property-based visual approach
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Recently, ionic liquids (ILs) have been introduced as potential carbon dioxide (CO2)-capturing solvents, as a substitute to conventional amine-based solvents. Conventional amine-based solvents that are used for CO2 capture ...
Optimal control of a non-isothermal catalytic packed-bed reactor model
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This work deals with the linear-quadratic control problem for a non-isothermal packed-bed catalytic reactor, which is described by coupled hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equations model. The classical Riccati ...
Oxygen reduction reaction catalysts used in microbial fuel cells for energy-efficient wastewater treatment: A review
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article Review)
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) as an energy-efficient wastewater treatment technology have attracted increasing interest in the past decade. Cathode catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) present a major challenge ...
Treatment and desalination of domestic wastewater for water reuse in a four-chamber microbial desalination cell
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) have been studied for contaminant removal from wastewater and salinity reduction in saline water. However, in an MDC wastewater treatment and desalination occurs in different streams, ...
Hybrid shell microcapsules containing isophorone diisocyanate with high thermal and chemical stability for autonomous self-healing of epoxy coatings
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Silica-polyurea/polyuretane hybrid shell microcapsules (MCs) loaded with isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) with long shelf-life and high thermal and chemical stability are prepared via emulsification followed by interfacial ...
Process Dynamic Analysis and Control Strategy for COGEN option Used for Flare Utilization
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Book chapter)
The aim of this work is to develop suitable process dynamic analysis and control strategies for implementing cogeneration unit (COGEN) as a flare utilization alternative to handle unexpected disturbances from unknown and ...
Highly selective CO2 removal for one-step liquefied natural gas processing by physisorbents
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2019 , Article)
Industrial specifications require CO2 concentrations in natural gas below 50 ppm during liquefaction because of corrosion and CO2 freezing. Herein, we report a physisorbent (TIFSIX-3-Ni) that exhibits new benchmark CO2/CH4 ...
Novel Ni based duplex coatings for anticorrosion applications
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Ni-B/Ni-P-CeO2 duplex coatings containing inner Ni-B layer were synthesized on mild steel substrate through the electrodeposition process. The structural, surface and electrochemical properties of the duplex coatings in ...
Optimal Design of Cogeneration Systems to Use Uncertain Flare Streams
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
An optimization approach is proposed for managing flares from multiple plants. The aim of the proposed approach is to utilize flared gas during an abnormal situation to produce combined heat and power while reducing the ...
Membrane Distillation Crystallization Hybrid Process for Zero Liquid Discharge in QAFCO Plant
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Qatar fertilizer company (QAFCO) is one of the world’s largest single site producer of ammonia and urea with production capacity of 12,900 metric tons per day. Currently, QAFCO faces major challenges in terms of water ...
