Carbon mineralization by reaction with steel-making waste: A review

Ibrahim M.H.; El-Naas M.H.; Benamor A.; Al-Sobhi S.S.; Zhang Z. ( 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 ...

Investigation of the rheological properties of nanosilica-reinforced polyacrylamide/polyethyleneimine gels for wellbore strengthening at high reservoir temperatures

Shamlooh M.; Hamza A.; Hussein I.A.; Nasser M.S.; Magzoub M.; ... more authors ... less authors ( American Chemical Society , 2019 , Article)

Wellbore strengthening has been introduced recently to resolve lost circulation problems by improving the fracture gradient and hence extending the mud window. Polymeric cross-linkable solutions showed outstanding strength ...

Enhancement of CO2 biofixation and lipid production by Chlorella vulgaris using coloured polypropylene film

Znad H.; Al Ketife A.M.D.; Judd S. ( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2019 , Article)

Chlorella vulgaris was cultivated with light at different wavelengths (λmax) and irradiation intensities (I) by applying a coloured tape (CT) as a simple, inexpensive light filter. C. vulgaris was cultivated in a standard ...

Intergraded wastewater treatment and carbon bio-fixation from flue gases using Spirulina platensis and mixed algal culture

Almomani F.; Judd S.; Bhosale R.R.; Shurair M.; Aljaml K.; ... more authors ... less authors ( Institution of Chemical Engineers , 2019 , Article)

In this work, Spirulina platensis (SP.PL) and mixed algal culture (M.X) were used as an economical treatment technology to solve dual environmental issues related to carbon dioxide (CO2) capturing and wastewater treatment. ...

Development of novel thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes for desalination

Qiblawey H.; Kumar H.; Nasser M.; Benamor A.; Al-Ghouti M. ( 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 ...

Polymeric formulations used for loss circulation materials and wellbore strengthening applications in oil and gas wells: A review

Hamza A.; Shamlooh M.; Hussein I.A.; Nasser M.; Salehi S. ( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article Review)

Drilling fluid circulation loss is referred to as “the most severe problem in drilling of oil and gas wells”, as a routine solution, loss circulation materials are added to fill any fractures and vugs that may have been ...

Electrocoagulation treatment of reject brine effluent from Solvay process

Osman M.A.; El-Naas M.; Al-Zuhair S. ( Desalination Publications , 2019 , Article)

Solvay process is an efficient treatment technique for reject brine from desalination, where salinity is reduced by removing Na+ by adding NH3 . However, in this process large amounts of NH3 are consumed and Cl– ...

Clay minerals damage quantification in sandstone rocks using core flooding and NMR

Kamal M.S.; Mahmoud M.; Hanfi M.; Elkatatny S.; Hussein I. ( 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 ...

Corrosion study of carbon steel in CO 2 loaded solution of N-methyldiethanolamine and L-arginine mixtures

Talkhan A.G.; Benamor A.; Nasser M.S.; Qiblawey H.; El-Tayeb S.A.; ... more authors ... less authors ( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)

This study presents an electrochemical corrosion investigation of carbon steel in blends of methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) and arginine (ARG) at different molar concentrations and solvent proportions. The effects of three ...

CO2 capture from water-gas shift process plant: Comparative bench-scale pilot plant investigation of MDEA-PZ blend vs novel MDEA activated by 1,5-diamino-2-methylpentane

Nwaoha C.; Tontiwachwuthikul P.; Benamor A. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article)

This research is a bench-scale pilot plant investigation of novel amine solvent blend containing MDEA and 1,5-diamino-2-methylpentane (DA2MP) for CO2 capture from water-gas shift process plant (H2 production). The CO2 ...
