Environmental impact of utilization of “produced water” from oil and gas operations in turfgrass systems
(
Nature Research
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020, The Author(s). This study attempted to use produced water (PW) to irrigate turfgrass species, Cynodon dactylon and Paspalum sp. Assessment on established grasses, heavy metal accumulation and germination tests for ...
An overview of brine management: Emerging desalination technologies, life cycle assessment, and metal recovery methodologies
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article Review)
This study examines which management methods are the most recent and advanced in managing rejected brine generated from desalination plants. It also provides up-to-date information regarding the most adequate technologies ...
Adsorption and recovery of lithium ions from groundwater using date pits impregnated with cellulose nanocrystals and ionic liquid
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The study aims to prepare a novel low-cost and environmentally friendly adsorbent by using date pits (DP) impregnated with cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and ionic liquid (IL), named IL-CNC@DP. The batch adsorption of lithium ...
Novel insights into the nanoadsorption mechanisms of crystal violet using nano-hazelnut shell from aqueous solution
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This paper discusses the nanoadsorption mechanisms of crystal violet (CV) using a nano-hazelnut shell (nano-HS) from an aqueous solution. The effect of various factors such as pH, temperature, and initial CV concentration ...
Novel composite materials of modified roasted date pits using ferrocyanides for the recovery of lithium ions from seawater reverse osmosis brine
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
In this paper, novel composite materials from modified roasted date pits using ferrocyanides were developed and investigated for the recovery of lithium ions (Li+) from seawater reverse osmosis (RO) brine. Two composite ...
Material flow analysis of plastic waste in the gulf co-operation countries (GCC) and the Arabian gulf: Focusing on Qatar
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Global plastic waste production has increased dramatically in recent years, both globally and regionally, having a multitude of adverse effects on the environment and human health. However, little attention has been directed ...
Investigating the simultaneous removal of hydrocarbons and heavy metals by highly adapted Bacillus and Pseudomonas strains
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The status, content and availability of heavy metals and hydrocarbons are highly affected by weathering processes – particularly – in areas characterized by harsh conditions. Their concomitant removal by highly adapted ...
Sustainable and long-term management of municipal solid waste: A review
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This study investigates landfill and incineration waste management strategies as potential and prevalent traditional methods of disposing of municipality-generated waste because of their cheapness and simplicity but requires ...
Development of a novel tailored ion-imprinted polymer for recovery of lithium and strontium from reverse osmosis concentrated brine
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This study aims to prepare ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) with the benefit of a metal-based sorbent, which is fabricated to selectively adsorb lithium (Li+) from aqueous solutions, and in an attempt to remove strontium (Sr2+). ...
New material of polyacrylic acid-modified graphene oxide composite for phenol remediation from synthetic and real wastewater
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
In this study, new material of polyacrylic acid-modified graphene oxide (GO-PAA) composite for phenol remediation from synthetic and real wastewater was investigated. The graphene oxide (GO) and GO-PAA were physically and ...
