(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Well-designed pedestrian facilities are essential to promote walking among residents. These facilities also act as safe space for use of cycling and other personal mobility vehicles. In 2018, Ministry of Transport developed ...
Efficient Turbidity Removal Using a New Gel Filtration Process
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
The removal of turbidity is a prime objective in the treatment of seawater, especially in the production of potable water. The water turbidity exists because of the colloidal particles or large-weight molecules that remain ...
UV Induced Photodegradation of Direct Green dye by Tb-doped La10Si6O27 Catalyst
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Due to the expansion of industry, the world's population growth has led to increased air and water contamination. Because they are poisonous and non-biodegradable, organic dyes are a significant source of this contamination. ...
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 ...
Potential Application of Porous Membrane from Blends of Homopolymer for Industrial Water Treatment
(
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 ...
Adsorption of Congo Red Dye Using Activated Carbon-Fe3O4 Composite
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Activated Carbon-Fe3O4 composites were synthesized using co-precipitation method and used in batch experiments to adsorb Congo red dyes. The effect of adsorbent dosage, temperature and initial dye concentration was ...
How Efficient Would Demand-Based Water Strategies Be for Qatar?
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Qatar is a water scarce country that heavily relies on seawater desalination. Multiple studies have concluded the need for a more resilient water planning through efficient "demand control" strategies. This study is among ...
Effect of Alkaline Activators on the Mechanical Properties of Geopolymer Mortar
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
"Geopolymerization is a process where silica and alumina rich source materials turn
into excellent binding materials by the aid of alkali solutions. Materials such as fly ash
are by-products in energy power plants. Fly ...
