Simultaneous removal of Congo red and cadmium (II) from aqueous solutions using graphene oxide–silica composite as a multifunctional adsorbent
(
Chinese Academy of Sciences
, 2020 , Article)
Graphene oxide is a very high capacity adsorbent due to its functional groups and π−π interactions with other compounds. Adsorption capacity of graphene oxide, however, can be further enhanced by having synergistic effects ...
Dissolution kinetics of different inorganic oilfield scales in green formulations
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Scale mineral deposition is a critical problem that hinders the daily production of oil and gas fields. Chemical removal of these scales, based on the scale type, is common. In this paper, borax and diethylene tremaine ...
Removal of Oil Content from Oil-Water Emulsions Using Iron Oxide/Bentonite Nano Adsorbents
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Water scarcity is a challenge that is faced worldwide to secure sustainable good quality water resources. Produced water, associated with the production of gas and oil, usually comes as oil contaminated water, creating ...
Gas capture processes
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Other)
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 ...
A novel cylindrical electrode configuration for inducing dielectrophoretic forces during electrocoagulation
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The removal of total phosphorous (TP) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) from a secondary treated wastewater (STW) using a new electrocoagulation electrode configuration was evaluated. Three different electrode modules were ...
Effect of surface morphology on methane interaction with calcite: a DFT study
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2020 , Article)
Natural gas, consisting primarily of methane, is found in carbonate reservoirs of which calcite is major component. However, the complexity and heterogeneity of carbonate reservoirs remain a major challenge in estimating ...
Enhancement of flocculation and dewaterability of a highly stable activated sludge using a hybrid system of organic coagulants and polyelectrolytes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
This study investigates the influence of hybrid coagulation-flocculation system on the flocculation and dewaterability efficiency of a real highly stable activated sludge obtained from the membrane bioreactor tank of a ...
Simultaneous treatment of reject brine and capture of carbon dioxide: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article Review)
The ongoing expansion of industries results in the increased emission of various pollutants into the environment, contributing to the rapid deterioration of air, water, and soil quality. Notable pollutants addressed in ...
Development of CuAg/Cu2O nanoparticles on carbon nitride surface for methanol oxidation and selective conversion of carbon dioxide into formate
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
Herein we report a catalyst consisting of CuAg/Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs), synthesized on the two-dimensional carbon nitride (CN) surface via galvanic exchange route for electrocatalytic methanol oxidation and carbon dioxide ...
Corrosion behavior of API-X120 carbon steel alloy in a GTL F-T process water environment at low COD concentration
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
The effect of temperature, time and rotation speed of FT-GTL process water on the corrosion rate of API X-120 carbon steel was investigated. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques ...
