Influence of polyelectrolyte architecture on the electrokinetics and dewaterability of industrial membrane bioreactor activated sludge
(
Academic Press
, 2019 , Article)
Improvement of sludge dewaterability is greatly hindered by the presence of large amounts of interstitial water molecules trapped in the sludge as a result of strong hydrophilic characteristics. This study has investigated ...
Pyrite Scale Removal Using Green Formulations for Oil and Gas Applications: Reaction Kinetics
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
Pyrite is one of the toughest iron sulfide scales to remove, which causes major problems in oil and gas production by damaging production equipment. The use of inorganic acid in iron sulfide scale removal particularly ...
A study on stability of active layer of polymer solar cells: effect of UV–visible light with different conditions
(
Springer Verlag
, 2019 , Article)
The objective of this study is to investigate the stability of the active layer of polymer solar cells from the effect of UV–visible light irradiation using different conditions with respect to time. The active layers were ...
Role of organic cation in modern lead-based perovskites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Hybrid organic-inorganic metal perovskites (ABX3, A- organic cation, B-metal ion, X-halide ion) have shown significant potential as thin-film solar cells or Dye solar cells (DSC) materials. Using a time-dependent density ...
Bimetallic palladium-supported halloysite nanotubes for low temperature CO oxidation: Experimental and DFT insights
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
The design and fabrication of novel metal-supported catalysts for energy conversion and heterogeneous catalysis is a pivotal theme. Herein, we present the synthesis of bimetallic palladium nanoalloys supported on halloysite ...
Multifunctional self-healing polymeric nanocomposite coatings for corrosion inhibition of steel
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
The present work focuses on the self-healing and corrosion behavior of novel epoxy based coatings containing epoxy monomer (EM) and dodecylamine (DDA) as self-healing and corrosion inhibitor, respectively. The coating ...
A hybrid electro-coagulation/forward osmosis system for treatment of produced water
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Oil and gas exploration produce large volumes highly contaminated produced water (PW) which exhibits a major environmental challenge. This work investigates the application of a novel hybrid system by combining electro-coagulation ...
Impact of combined oil-in-water emulsions and particulate suspensions on ceramic membrane fouling and permeability recovery
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
The application of crossflow ceramic microfiltration (CFCMF) to the removal of emulsified oil from a simple analogue of raw produced water (PW) arising from oil exploration has been studied. Outcomes relate to surfactant ...
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 ...
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 ...
