Corrosion inhibition of API X120 steel in a highly aggressive medium using stearamidopropyl dimethylamine
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
The inhibition efficiency of the stearamidopropyl dimethylamine (SAPDA) surfactant for the corrosion of API X120 steel in a 0.5 M HCl solution at different temperatures was investigated using different electrochemical and ...
Effects of amphiphilic pluronic F127 on the performance of PS/SPEEK blend ultrafiltration membrane: Characterization and antifouling study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The effect of amphiphilic Pluronic F127 additive on the ultrafiltration performance of polysulfone (PSf)/sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) blend flat sheet membranes was investigated in the present work. Fixed ...
Phyllosilicate nanoclay-based aqueous nanoparticle sorbent for CO2 capture at ambient conditions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
We report a new and effective aqueous sorbent for CO2 capture at ambient conditions based on aminopropyl magnesium phyllosilicate nanoparticles (aminoclay). Combining the advantages of both liquid and solid amine sorbents, ...
Carbonaceous and nitrogenous disinfection by-product formation from algal organic matter
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Seasonal algal blooms in drinking water sources release intracellular and extracellular algal organic matter (AOM) in significant concentrations into the water. This organic matter provides precursors for disinfection ...
Effects of sodium carbonate addition, heat and agitation on swelling and rheological behavior of Ca-bentonite colloidal dispersions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The effects of the addition of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and the subsequent simultaneous heating and stirring on the rheological behavior of Ca-bentonite colloidal dispersions have been investigated in this study. Ca-bentonite ...
The effect of site-specific spectral densities on the high-dimensional exciton-vibrational dynamics in the FMO complex
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
The coupled exciton-vibrational dynamics of a three-site model of the FMO complex is investigated using the Multi-layer Multi-configuration Time-dependent Hartree (ML-MCTDH) approach. Emphasis is put on the effect of the ...
Gas Processing Technology-Treatment and Utilization
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Book chapter)
The term natural gas refers to hydrocarbon-rich gas; it is a gaseous fossil fuel that is found in oil fields, natural gas fields, and coal beds (Carroll, 2010; Speight, 2007). Natural gas is colorless, shapeless, and ...
The effect of sulfur dioxide on the activity of hierarchical Pd-based catalysts in methane combustion
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
SO2 poisoning of methane oxidation over alumina-supported, Pd@CexZr1−xO2 nanoparticle catalysts was systematically studied by means of advanced PhotoElectron Spectroscopy (PES) methods. The Pd@CexZr1−xO2 units were synthesized ...
Heat duty, heat of absorption, sensible heat and heat of vaporization of 2–Amino–2–Methyl–1–Propanol (AMP), Piperazine (PZ) and Monoethanolamine (MEA) tri–solvent blend for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Chemical absorption using reactive amines for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture is characterized by absorption heat, heat of desorption and heat duty for regeneration (Qreg, kJ/mol CO2). This study experimentally investigated ...
Development of polysulfone-nanohybrid membranes using ZnO-GO composite for enhanced antifouling and antibacterial control
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Zinc oxide nanoparticles were well-known for the enhanced antifouling and antibacterial properties which could be beneficial for membrane processes in desalination. The functionalization of ZnO onto graphene oxide nanoplates ...
