Evaluation of polymeric adsorbents via fixed-bed columns for emulsified oil removal from industrial wastewater
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Polymeric adsorbents (PAs) have been gaining increased attention for application in industrial wastewater (WW) treatment. However, most studies on evaluating PAs specifically for emulsified oil removal are currently limited ...
Pilot-scale evaluation of forward osmosis membranes for volume reduction of industrial wastewater
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Water treatment is a key aspect for the sustainable management of oil & gas operations. Osmotic concentration (OC) is an advanced water treatment process, adapted from forward osmosis (FO), that does not require water ...
Magnetic nanoparticles draw solution for forward osmosis: Current status and future challenges in wastewater treatment
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Forward osmosis is considered as the least energy intensive membrane process since it operates based on the osmotic pressure gradient. However, it is still considered as immature technology mainly due to the elevated cost ...
