Advanced impedimetric biosensor configuration and assay protocol for glycoprofiling of a prostate oncomarker using Au nanoshells with a magnetic core
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this paper several advances were implemented for glycoprofiling of prostate specific antigen (PSA), what can be applied for better prostate cancer (PCa) diagnostics in the future: 1) application of Au nanoshells with a ...
Steel-Making dust as a potential adsorbent for the removal of lead (II) from an aqueous solution
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
The presence of high concentrations of toxic heavy metals such as lead Pb(II) in water is a major hazard to human health and may have a detrimental effect on the aquatic life and the environment. Implementing an efficient ...
Reducing energy consumption of CO2 desorption in CO2-loaded aqueous amine solution using Al2O3/HZSM-5 bifunctional catalysts
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The aim of this work is to find a potential way for great decrease in CO2 capture energy requirement. Here, for the first time, a series of bifunctional Al2O3/HZSM-5 catalysts (Al-ZSM) were prepared by the combined ...
The effect of sulfur dioxide on the activity of hierarchical Pd-based catalysts in methane combustion
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
SO2 poisoning of methane oxidation over alumina-supported, Pd@CexZr1−xO2 nanoparticle catalysts was systematically studied by means of advanced PhotoElectron Spectroscopy (PES) methods. The Pd@CexZr1−xO2 units were synthesized ...
Effect of harvesting methods on the energy requirement of Tetraselmis sp. biomass production and biocrude yield and quality
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
A halo-tolerant Tetraselmis sp. was grown in a 100,000 L raceway pond in the Qatari desert environment. As the biomass density reached 0.679 g/L, after 7 days, five different harvesting methods (i.e., cross-flow filtration, ...
Modification of Pd/CeO2 catalyst by Atomic Layer Deposition of ZrO2
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Modification of a 1 wt% Pd/CeO2 catalyst by Atomic Layer Deposition of thin ZrO2 films was studied. Calcination of the unmodified Pd/CeO2, prepared by precipitation of aqueous Ce(NO3)3 solutions, with Pd added by impregnation, ...
Heat duty, heat of absorption, sensible heat and heat of vaporization of 2–Amino–2–Methyl–1–Propanol (AMP), Piperazine (PZ) and Monoethanolamine (MEA) tri–solvent blend for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Chemical absorption using reactive amines for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture is characterized by absorption heat, heat of desorption and heat duty for regeneration (Qreg, kJ/mol CO2). This study experimentally investigated ...
Multi-component MWCNT/NG/EP-based bipolar plates with enhanced mechanical and electrical characteristics fabricated by compression moulding
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In this work, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), natural graphite (NG) and epoxy (EP) were used to fabricate bipolar plates by the compression moulding technique. The mechanical and thermal behaviours of the as-developed ...
A mathematical model for carbon fixation and nutrient removal by an algal photobioreactor
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A comprehensive mathematical modeling method for Chlorella vulgaris (Cv) has been developed to assess the influence of nutrient concentration (total nitrogen TN= 28-207 and total phosphorus TP= 6-8mgL 1) and irradiation ...
Effect of concentration of DOC loaded TiO 2 nanotubes on the corrosion behavior of smart coatings
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The present work focuses on synthesis and characterization of novel polymeric based smart coatings containing various amount of titania nanotubes (TiO2) encapsulated with dodecylamine (DOC). The novelty of the current ...
