Optimal Design of Cogeneration Systems Based on Flaring and Venting Streams and Accounting for the Involved Uncertainty
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Book chapter)
This work presents an optimization approach to design cogeneration systems able to use flare streams as supplementary fuel during normal and abnormal operation in oil complexes, while the problems associated with flaring ...
Techno-Economic-Environmental Study for Recovery of Novel Water Source within a Power Plant - Desalination Complex
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Book chapter)
The global water supply is at an already critical level; around 3.9 billion people (47% of the world population) will be subject to water stress in 2050, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ...
Applying a Sustainability Metric in Energy, Water and Food Nexus Applications; A Biomass Utilization Case Study to Improve Investment Decisions
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Book chapter)
The demand for energy, water and food (EWF) resources will continue to increase, especially as the population is expected to reach 9 billion by 2050. The consequences of this include resource exhaustion and environmental ...
Teaching "design-forcorrosion" to engineering undergraduates: A case study of novel Ni-B coatings for high wear and corrosive applications
(
IGI Global
, 2017 , Book chapter)
This chapter briefly describes the challenges and developments in the field of corrosion focusing on the subject of materials science. A brief introduction was provided on corrosion damage and the importance of its prevention. ...
Applying New Sustainability Metric in Different Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Recovery Configurations to Extend Investment Decision and Incorporate Sustainability Analysis
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Book chapter)
Sustainable design is considered as one of emerging research area in process system engineering (PSE) society. It extends the investment decision that focuses mainly on profitability analysis to consider other aspects such ...
Managing Uncertain Industrial Flares during Abnormal Process Operations using an Integrated Optimization and Monte Carlo Simulation Approach
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Book chapter)
In this work, an integrated optimization framework with Monte Carlo (MC) simulation techniques is suggested for the systematic synthesis of energy alternative tools, such as cogeneration (COGEN) systems, which can effectively ...
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 ...
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. ...
Electrical properties of lithium ferrite nanoparticles dispersed in a styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer matrix
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2015 , Book chapter)
The main goal of this work was the preparation and study of a composite material by dispersing lithium ferrite particles in a polymeric matrix. The matrix selected was styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene (SIS) copolymer. Lithium ...
Enzymatic Electrosynthesis Toward Value Addition
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Book chapter)
Utilization of enzymes as biocatalyst found to have specific advantages over whole-cell bacterial biocatalyst in electrochemical systems. The process of enzymatic catalysis in association with electrodes was found to have ...
