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, ...
Industrial waste utilization of carbon dust in sustainable cementitious composites production
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2020 , Article)
This paper experimentally investigates the effect of utilization of carbon dust generated as an industrial waste from aluminum factories in cementitious composites production. Carbon dust is collected, characterized, and ...
Thermophysical Characterization of Paraffins versus Temperature for Thermal Energy Storage
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
Latent heat storage systems (LHSS), using solid-liquid phase change materials (PCMs), are attracting growing interest in many applications. The determination of the thermophysical properties of PCMs is crucial for selecting ...
Validation and application of a membrane filtration evaluation protocol for oil-water separation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Membrane filtration processes like microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) are proven to be effective in industrial wastewater treatment, including oil-water separation, as they generate suitable quality permeate for ...
A comprehensive review on harvesting of microalgae using Polyacrylamide-Based Flocculants: Potentials and challenges
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Microalgae biomass is touted as a highly promising source of renewable third-generation biofuels that could enable a lucrative transition from conventional fossil fuels to more sustainable and environment-friendly energy ...
A carbon dot-based clay nanocomposite for efficient heavy metal removal
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2023 , Article)
Carbon dots and their derivatives with fascinating photoluminescence properties have recently attracted tremendous scientific attention. This work describes the preparation of novel fluorescent bentonite clay (B), modified ...
Effect of short fibres in the mechanical properties of geopolymer mortar containing oil-contaminated sand
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Sand contaminated with crude oil is becoming a major environmental issue around the world, while at the same time, fly ash generated by coal-fired power stations is having a detrimental effect on the environment. Previous ...
Design of highly anti-corrosive electroless plated Ni-P/modified halloysite nanotubes nanocomposite coating
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) and their modifications with either NH2 (HNT-NH2) or NH2/Polypyrrole (HNT–NH2–PPy) were electroless-deposited into the NiP matrix for the first time to form NiP/HNT, NiP/HNT-NH2 and NiP/HNT–NH2–PPy ...
In situ photopolymerization of acrylamide hydrogel to coat cellulose acetate nanofibers for drug delivery system
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
In this study we developed electrospun cellulose acetate nanofibers (CANFs) that were loaded with a model non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) (ibuprofen, Ib) and coated with poly(acrylamide) (poly-AAm) hydrogel ...
