(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article Review)
Nanomaterials have emerged as the new future generation materials for high-performance water treatment membranes with potential for solving the worldwide water pollution issue. The incorporation of nanomaterials in membranes ...
Sustainable boil-off gas utilization in liquefied natural gas production: Economic and environmental benefits
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Boil-off gas (BOG) causes negative environmental impacts related to gas streams flaring in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry. This study addresses the resources and energy management and discusses the economic and ...
Statistical optimization, soft computing prediction, mechanistic and empirical evaluation for fundamental appraisal of copper, lead and malachite green adsorption
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
This paper describes an efficient and low cost material for treatment of Cu2+, Pb2+ and malachite green from aquatic environments. Aerated Autoclave Concrete (AAC) was used as a low cost bed and modified by chitosan to ...
Combustion synthesis of copper ceria solid solution for CO2 conversion to CO via reverse water gas shift reaction
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
The reverse water–gas shift chemical (RWGS) reaction is a promising technique of converting CO2 to CO at low operating temperatures, with high CO selectivity and negligible side products. In this study, we investigate the ...
Graphene Oxide (GO) Based Coated Geopolymeric Membrane for Concentrating Orange Juice through Forward Osmosis
(
Bellwether Publishing, Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Dewatering of fruit juice through forward osmosis (FO) has attracted great attention in recent years; however, its application for fruit juice concentration through FO is limited due to high fouling rate, low flux, and ...
Metal-Organic Material Polymer Coatings for Enhanced Gas Sorption Performance and Hydrolytic Stability under Humid Conditions
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Physisorbent metal-organic materials (MOMs) have shown benchmark performance for highly selective CO2 capture from bulk and trace gas mixtures. However, gas stream moisture can be detrimental to both adsorbent performance ...
Doping amino acids with classical gas hydrate inhibitors to facilitate the hydrate inhibition effect at low dosages
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
The formation of gas hydrates in offshore subsea lines is a major flow assurance concern for the oil and gas industry. In this work, the thermodynamic hydrate inhibition (THI) effect of doping amino acids (AA) such as ...
Activated carbon-doped polystyrene fibers for direct contact membrane desalination
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
Membranes for direct contact membrane distillation were produced from electrospun polystyrene microfibers doped with activated carbon. The addition of activated carbon reduced the hydrophobicity of the fibers. Therefore, ...
Synthesis of graphene oxides particle of high oxidation degree using a modified Hummers method
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
High-oxidation-degree graphene oxide particles were synthesized using a modified Hummers' method. Six different types of particles were synthesized by varying the operating conditions, including the temperature, the reactant ...
Kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies for adsorptive removal of cobalt ions by rice husk from aqueous solution
(
Desalination Publications
, 2020 , Article)
Herein, batch adsorptive removal of cobalt ions (Co(II)) from aqueous solution was studied at room temperature. Adsorption of cobalt ions onto rice husk (RH) was confirmed by utilizing Fourier transform infrared, scanning ...
