Nudging greywater acceptability in a Muslim country: Comparisons of different greywater reuse framings in Qatar
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
With very low annual rainfall and increasingly depleted groundwater resources, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries are some of the most water scarce in the world and rely on growing quantities of desalinated water ...
The impact of mechanically-imposed shear on clogging, fouling and energy demand for an immersed membrane bioreactor
(
MDPIAG
, 2018 , Article)
The impact of the application of mechanically-imposed shear on the propensity for fouling and clogging (or “sludging”—the agglomeration of sludge solids in the membrane channel) of an immersed flat sheet (iFS) membrane ...
Nanoscale studies of the early stages of scale formation in sour environments
(
one petro
, 2018 , Article)
The corrosion of carbon steel in environments containing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a critical issue to the oil and gas industry. Although considerable research efforts have been carried out, there is not yet a complete ...
Synthesis and characterization of Sm3+-doped ZnO nanoparticles via a sol–gel method and their photocatalytic application
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2018 , Article)
Abstract: Spherical ZnO nanoparticles doped by samarium ions were successfully synthesized via a simple sol–gel method. The structures, morphologies, optical properties and surface areas were investigated for all samples ...
Adsorption
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2018 , Book chapter)
Removing of wastewater pollutants by novel adsorption techniques is urgent as they are continuously defiling the limited freshwater resources, seriously affecting the terrestrial, ecosystems, aquatic, and aerial flora and ...
Clogging vs. fouling in immersed membrane bioreactors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Whilst the fouling of MBR membrane surfaces has been very extensively explored by the academic community, there is an increasingly widespread recognition by practitioners of the issue of clogging of membrane channels with ...
Influence of bimetallic nanoparticles composition and synthesis temperature on the electrocatalytic activity of NiMn-incorporated carbon nanofibers toward urea oxidation
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
High efficiency, cost effectivity and the availability of hydrogen are the advantages of
electrolysis as a strategy for urea-containing wastewater treatment. Composition,
morphology, and synthesis-temperature distinctly ...
Watermarking: A review of software and hardware techniques
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Watermarking is a well-known technique traditionally used in banknotes and other documents to discourage counterfeiting. It usually consists of semi-transparent symbols embedded on paper. Similar concepts were applied to ...
A comparative study on the operational performance of four-leg intersections by control type
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The selection of proper control types at intersections at the planning stage is an important concern considering the difficulty in comparing the performance of different control types. Therefore, several manuals proposed ...
Advanced antifouling zwitterionic layer based impedimetric HER2 biosensing in human serum: Glycoprofiling as a novel approach for breast cancer diagnostics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
There are two key novel components presented here behind identification of potential novel breast cancer (BCa) diagnostic approach: 1. application of photoimmobilizable zwitterionic hydrogels resisting non-specific protein ...
