Enhanced CO2 capture through reaction with steel-making dust in high salinity water
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Mineral carbonation (MC) is evolving as a possible technology for sequestering CO2 from medium-sized emission point sources. Industrial wastes have been recently used as an effective source for MC that have higher reactivity ...
The impact of mechanical shear on membrane flux and energy demand
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article Review)
The use of forced mechanical shear for both disc membranes (rotating and vibrating disc filtration, RDF and VDF respectively) and hollow fibres (vibrating HF membranes, VHFM) is reviewed. These systems have been extensively ...
Ni-based nano-catalysts for the dry reforming of methane
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Development of a highly efficient and coke-resistant, nickel based nano-catalyst in the carbon dioxide reformation of methane is reported. The alumina supported Ni-based catalyst with a metal loading of 5wt% was prepared ...
Effects of amphiphilic pluronic F127 on the performance of PS/SPEEK blend ultrafiltration membrane: Characterization and antifouling study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The effect of amphiphilic Pluronic F127 additive on the ultrafiltration performance of polysulfone (PSf)/sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) blend flat sheet membranes was investigated in the present work. Fixed ...
Effect of rock mineralogy on Hot-CO2 injection for enhanced gas recovery
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Conventional gas reservoirs are one of the viable options for CO2 enhanced gas recovery and sequestration. Injection of hot CO2 into depleted reservoirs is expected to improve gas recovery. Static adsorption and core ...
Oilfield scale formation and chemical removal: A review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article Review)
In oil and gas industry operations, scale deposition on the surface and subsurface production equipment can cause different problems such as formation damage, loss in production, pressure reductions, and premature failure ...
Heat transfer enhancement of nanofluids using iron nanoparticles decorated carbon nanotubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Enhancing heat transfer in thermal fluid systems can contribute significantly towards the improvement of thermal efficiency resulting in reducing energy consumption and hence carbon emission. Conventional fluids like water ...
Phyllosilicate nanoclay-based aqueous nanoparticle sorbent for CO2 capture at ambient conditions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
We report a new and effective aqueous sorbent for CO2 capture at ambient conditions based on aminopropyl magnesium phyllosilicate nanoparticles (aminoclay). Combining the advantages of both liquid and solid amine sorbents, ...
Carbonaceous and nitrogenous disinfection by-product formation from algal organic matter
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Seasonal algal blooms in drinking water sources release intracellular and extracellular algal organic matter (AOM) in significant concentrations into the water. This organic matter provides precursors for disinfection ...
Effects of sodium carbonate addition, heat and agitation on swelling and rheological behavior of Ca-bentonite colloidal dispersions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The effects of the addition of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and the subsequent simultaneous heating and stirring on the rheological behavior of Ca-bentonite colloidal dispersions have been investigated in this study. Ca-bentonite ...
