Improvement of PVA gel properties for cell immobilization
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This study investigates the characterization and the ability of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel to be used in the area of wastewater treatment as biomass immobilization matrix. The PVA matrix was prepared through the ...
Carbon Capture
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2018 , Book chapter)
CO2 is one of the main greenhouse gases that causes global warming, leading to a global detrimental impact on the environment, economy, and society as a whole. Carbon capture is regarded as an important and effective ...
Gas capture processes
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Other)
The increasing trends in gas emissions have had direct adverse impacts on human health and ecological habitats in the world. A variety of technologies have been deployed to mitigate the release of such gases, including ...
Investigation of gas-liquid flow using electrical resistance tomography and wavelet analysis techniques for early kick detection
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Gas kick is a well control problem and is defined as the sudden influx of formation gas into the wellbore. This sudden influx, if not controlled, may lead to a blowout problem. An accidental spark during a blowout can lead ...
Comprehensive assessment and evaluation of correlations for gas-oil ratio, oil formation volume factor, gas viscosity, and gas density utilized in gas kick detection
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
For reliable gas kick detection modeling and simulation, the PVT properties of the gas must be predicted accurately. The property correlations available in open literature are developed mostly for certain regions and ...
Evaluation of parameters controlling calcium recovery and CO2 uptake from desalination reject brine: An optimization approach
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
A multistage process scheme for extracting valuable minerals from desalination reject brine while simultaneously sequestering CO2 has been proposed. As a part of the proposed scheme, simultaneous removal of calcium ions ...
Isolation and Identification of Organics-Degrading Bacteria From Gas-to-Liquid Process Water
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2021 , Article)
The gas-to-liquid (GTL) process generates considerable amounts of wastewater that are highly acidic and characterized by its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) content, due to the presence of several organic pollutants, ...
Effective and sustainable adsorbent materials for oil spill cleanup based on a multistage desalination process
(
Academic Press
, 2021 , Article)
Oil spills, which are often caused by crude oil transportation accidents, contaminate coastal waters and land and can harm aquatic life, seabirds, humans, and the entire ecosystem. Ocean currents and wind complicate oil ...
A CFD Investigation on the Effect of IPSBR Operational Conditions on Liquid Phase Hydrodynamics
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
This study used a computational fluid dynamics simulation of an inert-particle spouted-bed reactor, which consists of a cylindrical vessel with a conical base, to investigate the effect of different operational parameters ...
Chemical kinetics of carbon dioxide in the blends of different amino acid salts and methyldiethanolamine
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
In the present study, the reaction kinetics of carbon dioxide (CO2) with two blends of N-methyldiethanolamine; potassium salts of taurine and potassium salts of glycine were investigated. The experiments were performed ...
