Clays and clay minerals are inexpensive, non-toxic, and naturally occurring minerals that have been utilized in water remediation as adsorbents. However, clays and clay minerals and those modified with heat, surfactants, ...

Gas-to-liquid (GTL) technology involves the conversion of natural gas into several liquid hydrocarbon products. The Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) process is the most widely applied approach for GTL, and it is the main source of ...

Produced water (PW) is a by-product of oil and gas operations, and its production is foreseen to increase in the upcoming years. Such an increase is justified by various entities through their projection of the expected ...

Solvay and modified Solvay processes are facing a major challenge in reducing brine salinity to a level suitable for agriculture and industry. This challenge arises as a result of competing reactions and mixing limits ...

The objective of this research is to study for the first time the effect of adding l-arginine (Arg) amino acid on the solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous solution of N-methyldiethanolamine (MDEA). The study was carried ...

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 ...

Alkali-earth metals pose a significant challenge to water treatment technologies and electrochemical processes due to their propensity to precipitate as metal hydroxides, which can deposit on membranes and/or electrodes ...

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 ...

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, ...

The traditional Solvay process and other modifications that are based on different types of alkaline material and waste promise to be effective in the reduction of reject brine salinity and the capture of CO2 . These ...
