A mini review of recent progress in the removal of emerging contaminants from pharmaceutical waste using various adsorbents
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
The presence of emerging contaminants (ECs) originating from pharmaceutical waste in water, wastewater, and marine ecosystems at various geographical locations has been clearly publicised. This review paper presents an ...
Dual functional materials capable of integrating adsorption and Fenton-based oxidation processes for highly efficient removal of pharmaceutical contaminants
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Pharmaceutical contaminants have shown widespread presence in water/wastewater threatening environmental and human health. Existing literature shows that adsorption can efficiently bind pharmaceuticals preventing their ...
Recent advances on the treatment of oil fields produced water by adsorption and advanced oxidation processes
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The handling and treatment of produced water (PW) generated during oil and gas extraction has continued to be a serious dilemma due to its large quantities and complex composition with variety of pollutants. In this review ...
Recent advances on humic acid removal from wastewater using adsorption process
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article Review)
Humic acid (HA) is a component of natural organic matter (NOM) with a high molecular weight and high complexity. The presence of humic acid in water raises serious concerns due to its toxicity and ability to form carcinogenic ...
Steel slag promoted electrocoagulation process for the treatment of produced water
(
Desalination Publications
, 2020 , Article)
Produced water is a by-product produced from the oil and gas industry. It poses a significant threat to the environment due to its high salinity and high pollutant concentration. In this paper, steel slag was used to enhance ...
A solid-phase extractant based on microemulsion modified date pits for toxic pollutants
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
Application of microemulsion modified raw date pits as an inexpensive solid extractant for removing methylene blue (MB), copper ion (Cu2+) and cadmium ion (Cd2+) has been presented. The results summarised herein are also ...
Synthesis of nanostructured novel ion-imprinted polymer for selective removal of Cu2+ and Sr2+ ions from reverse osmosis concentrated brine
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
This study aims to prepare an ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) using copper sulfate as a template and potassium persulfate as an initiator to selectively adsorb copper ions (Cu2+) from aqueous solutions and in an attempt to ...
Fluid-rock interactions in tight gas reservoirs: Wettability, pore structural alteration, and associated multiphysics transport
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Book chapter)
Tight and unconventional reservoirs such as shales are rich in clay minerals that give rise to several fluid-rock interactions. The effect of such fluid-rock interactions is manifested at multiscales. The fluid-rock ...
Iron Sulfide Scale Inhibition in Carbonate Reservoirs
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
Hydrocarbon production operations include water injection, varying stimulation approaches, and enhanced oil recovery techniques. These treatments often affect reservoir formation, production, and injection facilities. Such ...
