Nanocomposite Membranes of Silica and Polysulfone for Improved Gas Permeation
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Polysulfone-Silica mixed matrix hybrid membranes have been prepared by incorporating silicon dioxide nanoparticles with average particle size of 136 nm. Two types of polysulfone-silica nanocomposite membranes were prepared ...
Laundry wastewater treatment using ultrafiltration under different operating conditions
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The laundry wastewater of one of the hospitals in Qatar was selected and studied. It was found that hospital laundry is releasing considerable amount of wastewater i.e. 1800 - 2500 liters/cycle while washing 40 - 50 kg of ...
Metal-oxide nanotubes functional material tailored for membrane water/wastewater treatment
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Titanium Dioxide Nano-Tubes (TNTs) synthesized by hydrothermal method were used to prepare new polysulfone thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes. The TFN membranes contained different TNTs proportions (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 ...
Improving biogas production from agricultural waste by photo-Fenton process
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The Study investigates the enhancement of biogas production from a mixture of agricultural solid waste, wastewater and manure by Photo-Fenton prices process. The effect of the total solids, organic content, nutrient and ...
Solar Energy Storage via Thermochemical Metal Oxide/Metal Sulfate Water Splitting Cycle
(
Materials Research Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the effect of Ar molar flow-rate on thermodynamic efficiency analysis of zinc oxide-zinc sulfate (ZnS-ZnO) water splitting cycle useful for solar H2 production. The thermodynamic efficiency analysis is ...
High and Ultra-high Performance Concretes: A Solution to Reinforced Concrete Durability under Harsh Climate of Arabian Gulf
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Reinforced concrete (RC) infrastructure in the Arabian Gulf region deteriorates under
severe environmental conditions after only short service life. To overcome this problem,
it is imperative to employ high-quality concretes ...
Comparison between multi-stage and single stage microalgae dewatering processes
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The present work shows a quick, simple and accurate method for algae harvesting with a potential to relate the required polymer dose with in-situ hydrodynamics properties of alga solution. The method also reduces the lag ...
Assessment of carbon bio-fixation by mixed indigenous microalgae
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This study assesses the potential use of mixed Indigenous Microalgae (MIMA) for carbon capture from flue gases in a photo-bioreactor. The effect of inlet CO2 concentration on the carbon biofixation rate was investigated. ...
H2 Production via ferrite based H2O splitting cycle: Solar reactor thermodynamic efficiency analysis
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This study reports the thermodynamic equilibrium and efficiency analysis of the Ba-ferrite based thermochemical water splitting cycle. Attempts were made to identify the equilibrium composition associated with the thermal ...
