Development of novel thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes for desalination
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Microporous Polyetherimide (PEI) membranes were prepared by wet phase inversion at different temperatures. The thin film composites (TFC) of polyamide on microporous PEI were prepared using meta-Phenylenediamine (MPD) and ...
Reaction kinetics of carbon dioxide in aqueous blends of N-methyldiethanolamine and L-arginine using the stopped-flow technique
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Reduction of carbon dioxide emission from natural and industrial flue gases is paramount to help mitigate its effect on global warming. Efforts are continuously deployed worldwide to develop efficient technologies for CO ...
Organically modified nanoclay filled thin-film nanocomposite membranes for reverse osmosis application
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
This study validates, for the first time, the effectiveness of two nanoclays, that is, cloisite (CS)-15A and montmorillonite (MNT) at the polyamide (PA) active layer in the reverse osmosis (RO) membrane. Cloisite-15A is ...
An Investigation of the Swelling Kinetics of Bentonite Systems Using Particle Size Analysis
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Particles size distribution (PSD) is introduced as a tool for analysis of bentonite aggregation and swelling kinetics. Raw Ca-bentonite was purified using a combined wet sieving and sedimentation processes, followed by ...
Carbon mineralization by reaction with steel-making waste: A review
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article Review)
Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is taking the lead as a means for mitigating climate change. It is considered a crucial bridging technology, enabling carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions from fossil fuels to be reduced ...
Clay minerals damage quantification in sandstone rocks using core flooding and NMR
(
Springer Verlag
, 2019 , Article)
Sandstone oil reservoirs consist of different clay minerals such as kaolinite, illite, and chlorite. These clay minerals highly affect the formation damage during enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and well stimulation operations ...
