Rechargeable zinc-air batteries (RZABs) are one of the most promising next-generation energy-storage technologies for stationary applications (home and industry), wearable and portable electronics, and transportation ...

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 ...

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 ...

In this work, new magnetic bentonite-based adsorbents combined with different carbon sources, namely, reduced graphene oxide and multiwall carbon nanotubes, were synthesized via co-precipitation method. The synthesized ...

In a previous work, the overall performance of modified Solvay process was investigated in the absence of ammonia, where carbon dioxide and brine treatments were accomplished in a single reaction and in the presence of ...

High salinilty wastewater and carbon dioxide are major hurdles in implementing a sustainable desalination technology. This study proposes an electrodialysis (ED) technique for onsite utilization of desalination reject brine ...

Carbon dioxide conversion into useful products has been gaining considerable attention as a global-warming-mitigation technique. The electrochemical conversion of CO2 into high-value chemicals involves the utilization of ...

In this study, a novel system for contacting gases and liquids, which may be suitable for many applications involving gas-liquid contact or gas-liquid reactions, has been developed and characterized. The system consists ...

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 ...

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 ...
