Reaction kinetics of carbon dioxide with aqueous solutions of l-Arginine, Glycine & Sarcosine using the stopped flow technique
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The use of amino acids as potential solvents for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture has been considered by a number of researchers. However, very little is known about the kinetics and mechanism of amino acids-CO2 reactions. In ...
Advancement and new perspectives of using formulated reactive amine blends for post-combustion carbon dioxide (CO2) capture technologies
(
KeAi Communications Co.
, 2017 , Article Review)
Chemical absorption using amine-based solvents have proven to be the most studied, as well as the most reliable and efficient technology for capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from exhaust gas streams and synthesis gas in all ...

Abstract: Haematite (?-Fe2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) of different sizes and morphologies were prepared from two different iron precursors (iron acetate (A) and iron nitrate (N)) using the sol�gel technique, through a reaction ...
Fuzzy Logic-Based Model to Predict the Impact of Flow Rate and Turbidity on the Performance of Multimedia Filters
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
This paper uses fuzzy logic-based models to predict and evaluate the performance of multimedia filters utilized in wastewater treatment. A fuzzy logic-based model is constructed and trained to predict the operating time ...
Arabic gum as green agent for ZnO nanoparticles synthesis: properties, mechanism and antibacterial activity
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
The size and morphology of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were controlled in the presence of the natural and green agent, Arabic gum. Lower amounts of Arabic gum showed a greater effect on the size and morphology as well as ...
Photocatalytic Degradation of Pentachlorophenol Using ZnO Nanoparticles: Study of Intermediates and Toxicity
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
The photocatalytic degradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was carried out using ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of sunlight. The effect of different ZnO NPs sizes was synthesized by sol–gel method as well as loading ...
Fabrication of polysulfone nanocomposite membranes with silver-doped carbon nanotubes and their antifouling performance
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, polysulfone (PSf)/silver-doped carbon nanotube (Ag-CNT) nanocomposite membranes were prepared by a phase-inversion technique; they were characterized and evaluated for fouling-resistant applications with ...
Evaluation of the current state and perspective of wastewater treatment and reuse in Qatar
(
Desalination Publications
, 2017 , Article)
In Qatar, many freshwater resources have already been depleted due to the overconsumption as a result of the population and economic growth. Moreover, due to the lack of sufficient sewage treatment infrastructure, Qatar ...
Solar photocatalytic degradation of 2-chlorophenol with ZnO nanoparticles: optimisation with D-optimal design and study of intermediate mechanisms
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, the photocatalytic degradation of toxic pollutant (2-chlorophenol) in the presence of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) was investigated under solar radiation. The three main factors, namely pH of solution, solar ...
