(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study evaluated the use of green algae Spirulina microalgae as a C02 capturing technology at different temperatures. The growth of Spirulina at 25 and 30◦C were studied in synthetic wastewater and its performance in ...
Removal of emerging pharmaceuticals from wastewater by ozone-based advanced oxidation processes
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Thin-ply composites are currently receiving specific attention from researchers due to their capabilities to delay matrix cracking. In this paper, the aim is to design a hybrid laminate that contains both thin- and normal ...
CO2 Capture Using Aqueous Potassium Carbonate Promoted by Ethylaminoethanol: A Kinetic Study
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
Kinetics of absorption of CO2 in an aqueous potassium carbonate (K2CO3) promoted by ethylaminoethanol (EAE) solution (hereafter termed as APCE solvent) was investigated in a glass stirred cell reactor by employing a fall ...
Solar hydrogen production via erbium oxide based thermochemical water splitting cycle
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
The erbium oxide based water splitting (Eb-WS) cycle was thermodynamically studied by using the HSC Chemistry software and databases. The first step of the Eb-WS cycle involves thermal reduction of Er2 O3, whereas the ...
Thermodynamic investigation of hydrogen enrichment and carbon suppression using chemical additives in ethanol dry reforming
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, a thermodynamic equilibrium analysis has been performed on ethanol dry reforming in presence of commonly used reducing agents such as glycine, hydrazine, urea and ammonia. The effect of these agents on ...
Effectiveness of Ni incorporation in iron oxide crystal structure towards thermochemical CO2 splitting reaction
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, Ni-doped iron oxide (NixFe3−xO4) materials were synthesized via the 1,2-epoxypropane assisted sol-gel method by varying the molar concentration of Ni from x=0.2 to 1. Sol-gel derived NixFe3−xO4 gels were ...
