Potential Application of Porous Membrane from Blends of Homopolymer for Industrial Water Treatment
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
The self-organization of matter has been extensively explored in recent years, and significant advancements have been made in the field of porous ordered films produced by the auto-assembly of different polymer materials, ...
Impact of a Sand Filtration Pretreatment Step on High-Loaded Greywater Treatment by an Electrocoagulation Technique
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2023 , Article)
Greywater (GW) treatment by the electrocoagulation (EC) technique alone might not meet the required standards in terms of pollutant removal, specifically when GW contains high loads of pollutants. In this preliminary study, ...
Controlling the Synthesis Protocols of Palladium-Based Nanostructures for Enhanced Electrocatalytic Oxidation of Carbon Monoxide: A Mini-Review
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2023 , Article)
Pd-based nanostructures are endowed with impressive catalytic features for alcohol-based fuel cells, however, their poisoning by carbon monoxide (CO) is a great barrier to large-scale utilization of such fuel cells as ...

(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
Removal of recalcitrant organic pollutants by degradation or mineralization from industrial
waste streams is continuously being explored to find viable options to apply on the commercial scale.
Herein, we propose a ...
Novel Slippery Liquid-Infused Porous Surfaces (SLIPS) Based on Electrospun Polydimethylsiloxane/Polystyrene Fibrous Structures Infused with Natural Blackseed Oil
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Hydrophobic fibrous slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) were fabricated by electrospinning polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polystyrene (PS) as a carrier polymer on plasmatreated polyethylene (PE) and polyurethane ...

(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Developing micro- and nanomaterials for environmental pollution remediation is currently a pertinent topic. Among the plethora of strategies, designing supported nanocatalysts for the degradation of pollutants has achieved ...
Durability of Reinforced Concrete Beams Externally Strengthened with CFRP Laminates under Harsh Climatic Conditions
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2021 , Article)
This paper addresses the durability of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates under natural and saline environments in the Arabian Gulf. Beam specimens were conditioned ...
Recycling of Tetra Pak for Space and Water Heating by Blending with Phase Change Materials
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
A rapid rise in demands for thermal comfort in the building sector necessitates higher energy consumption for air conditioning, ventilation, space, and water heating systems. Recently, phase change materials (PCMs) have ...
A Meta-Analysis to Gauge the Effectiveness of STEM Informal Project-Based Learning: Investigating the Potential Moderator Variables
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2023 , Article Review)
In recent decades, informal project-based learning (PjBL) for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education has gained immense significance. Though some meta-analytical studies have reported the ...
Emerging Brine Management Approaches for Sustainable Desalination in the GCC Countries
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
The major technologies employed in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) based commercial desalination facilities are classified into two categories: the membrane-based (mostly reverse osmosis (RO)) and thermal-based (primarily ...
