Nutritive effect of dust on microbial biodiversity and productivity of the Arabian Gulf
(
Bellwether Publishing, Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
The Arabian Gulf is exposed to intensive dust storms during summer until early winter. We investigated the nutritive effect of the dust on microbial biodiversity of the water column and the productivity of the Gulf. We ...
Cytogenetic Characterization of Three Arabian Gulf Bivalve Species
(
Institute of Malacology
, 2020 , Article)
The diploid number and karyotype of three endemic and highly distributed species from the Qatari shores: Brachidontes variabilis (Krauss, 1848) (Mytilidae), Isognomon nucleus (Lamarck, 1819) (Pteriidae) and Neotrapezium ...
Highly porous PtPd nanoclusters synthesized via selective chemical etching as efficient catalyst for ethanol electro-oxidation
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs) have received great interest owing to their high power density and environmental friendness. Nevertheless, the designing of active, durable, and efficient anode for DEFCs is a profound ...
Development and Properties of Amorphous Particles Reinforced Al Matrix Nanocomposites
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Book chapter)
Aluminum metal matrix composites (AMMCs) fabricated by reinforcing aluminum matrix with ceramic particles have received considerable attention because of their superior properties over monolithic aluminum matrix. However, ...
Design and thermo-economic evaluation of an integrated concentrated solar power – Desalination tri-generation system
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
In this work, a concentrated solar power (CSP) tri-generation system that is capable of the simultaneous production of steam, power and freshwater is introduced. The abundantly available direct normal irradiance can ...
A universal transportation model for reverse osmosis systems
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
This paper presents a new transport model for reverse osmosis (RO) systems, which combines irreversible thermodynamics, together with solution-diffusion theory. The simplifications adopted by the classical theory for ...
Cascaded design of desalination systems: A graphical approach
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
A graphical technique to design staged desalination systems is introduced in this work by utilizing the concept of composite curves. Material recycle networks (MRNs), which are very popular graphical tools, also rely on ...

Elsevier
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Reverse Osmosis (RO) is an evolving membrane-based technology for water desalination that started to gain increased popularity in the light of the increased global water demand due its high efficiency and low carbon ...
Optimizing network pathways of CO2 conversion processes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Carbon capture and utilization (CCU) has gained great attraction as an alternative route of producing carbon-based chemicals, which also mitigates atmospheric CO2. This paper develops a numerical optimization model that ...
Assessment strategies of different molten salts for heat transfer in tri-generation systems
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Book chapter)
Tri-Generation Systems (TGS) are designed for combined cooling, heating, and power production within a single process. In this paper, the integration of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) together with TGS is studied. The ...
