Novel Graphene-Zinc Iron Oxide Composite to Enhance Ultrafiltration Membrane Performance for Water Treatment and Desalination
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference)
The main target of membrane technologies such as the Ultrafiltration (UF), Nanofiltration (NF) and Reverse osmosis (RO) is to produce better filtration and separation of organic and inorganic substance from water as well ...
Mechanical Behavior of a Novel Nanocomposite Polysulphone - Carbon Nanotubes Membrane for Water Treatment
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference)
Nowadays, global fresh water shortage is becoming the most serious problem affecting the economic and social development. Water treatment including seawater desalination and wastewater treatment is the main technology for ...
Effect of charge type and density of polyacrylamide on the electrokinetics behavior of flocculated bentonite suspensions
(
AIChE
, 2016 , Conference)
The study of electrokinetics behavior of clay suspensions is of fundamental importance in many industrial applications. This paper addresses the electrokinetics behavior of polyacrylamide (PAM)- bentonite suspensions. The ...
Destabilization and treatment of produced water-oil emulsions using anionic polyacrylamide with electrolyate of aluminum sulphate and ferrous sulphate
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2016 , Conference)
Surfactant and polymer flooding technology can greatly enhance the oil recovery through the expansion of sweeping and displacing efficiency. The recovered oil from surfactant and polymer flooding emulsifies the residual ...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture performance of aqueous tri-solvent blends containing 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) promoted by diethylenetriamine (DETA)
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
In this present research, promising aqueous amine tri-solvent blends for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture in post-combustion processes were investigated for their cyclic loadings, cyclic capacities, initial absorption rates, ...
Linear dynamics modelling of droplet deformation in a pulsatile electric field
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2016 , Article)
A linear dynamic model of water droplet deformation in the presence of an electric field has been developed. Analytical solutions of the differential equation of motion are provided with different waveforms as forcing ...
Analysis of partial electrocoalescence by Level-Set and finite element methods
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2016 , Article)
The coalescence of a water drop in a dieletric oil phase at a water layer interface in the presence of an electric field is simulated by solving the Navier Stokes and charge conservation equations with the finite element ...
Thermodynamic investigation of hydrogen enrichment and carbon suppression using chemical additives in ethanol dry reforming
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, a thermodynamic equilibrium analysis has been performed on ethanol dry reforming in presence of commonly used reducing agents such as glycine, hydrazine, urea and ammonia. The effect of these agents on ...
Improvement in Photovoltaic Performance of Dye Sensitized Solar Cell Using Activated Carbon-TiO2 Composites-Based Photoanode
(
IEEE Electron Devices Society
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, the activated carbon (AC) is synthesized from the oil fly ash (FA). Noncarbonaceous impurities were eliminated by acidic treatment of oil FA. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and scanning electron microscopy ...
Rheological and thermal properties of novel surfactant-polymer systems for EOR applications
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
In this work, two surfactant-polymer (SP) systems were evaluated for enhanced oil recovery applications. The first SP system contained partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide and alkyl polyethylene glycol ether-based non-ionic ...
