A practical approach to CO2 sequestration: Reactions with high salinity water
(
OMICS
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Carbon dioxide is known to be a major contributor to global warming and climate change and hence has an adverse effect on environmental sustainability. CO2 is emitted by various activities associated with industrial processes ...
Regeneration Energy Analysis of Aqueous Tri-Solvent Blends Containing 2-Amino-2-Methyl-1-Propanol (AMP), Methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) and Diethylenetriamine (DETA) for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Capture
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This study investigated the contribution of absorption heat, sensible heat and heat of vaporization towards the regeneration energy (Qreg, kJ/g-CO2) of AMP-MDEA-DETA tri-solvent blends. The experiment was conducted at ...
An adaptive sliding mode observer for linear systems under malicious attack
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Recent years have witnessed extensive research activities in the development of control law architectures for cyber-physical systems consisting of sensing, computing and communication modules working together to control ...
Data enrichment in fine-grained classification of aquatic macroinvertebrates
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The types and numbers of benthic macroinverte-brates found in a water body reflect water quality. Therefore, macroinvertebrates are routinely monitored as a part of freshwater ecological quality assessment. The collected ...
Potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae for carbon dioxide bio-fixation and advanced wastewater treatment
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a CO2 capturing technology and treatment process for wastewaters was evaluated at two temperatures ( 25 and 30 C) and different CO2 dosage ( 0%, 5% and 15%). During ...
Data confidentiality in cloud-based pervasive system
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Data confidentiality and privacy is a serious concern in pervasive systems where cloud computing is used to process huge amount of data such as matrix multiplications typically used in HPC. Due to limited processing ...
Advanced wastewater treatment using microalgae: Effect of temperature on removal of nutrients and organic carbon
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This study evaluated the use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a treatment process for wastewaters and CO2 capturing technology at different temperatures. The study follows the growth rate of MIMA, CO2 Capturing ...
An overview of pedestrian signal setting and implementation in the State of Qatar
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Pedestrian signal control is a main influencing factor on the Level of Service of crossing facilities and on the safety performance considering conflicts with vehicles. In signal design, pedestrian clearance time is a key ...
Consideration of a Pedestrian Speed Change Model in the Pedestrian-Vehicle Safety Assessment of Signalized Crosswalks
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Pedestrian safety is one of the most challenging issues in the road network. Understanding the pedestrian maneuver is the key to applying countermeasures against traffic crashes. It is known that behaviors of pedestrians ...
Sulfide Scaling and Corrosion of Carbon Steel in a Sour Medium
(
The Electrochemical Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The damage caused by the building up of scale inside wellbores and pipelines costs millions of pounds each year. A better understanding of scale formation and the kinetic nature of the process is essential, for asset ...
