Advanced wastewater treatment using microalgae: Effect of temperature on removal of nutrients and organic carbon
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This study evaluated the use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a treatment process for wastewaters and CO2 capturing technology at different temperatures. The study follows the growth rate of MIMA, CO2 Capturing ...
Evaluation of an activated carbon packed bed for the adsorption of phenols from petroleum refinery wastewater
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The performance of an adsorption column packed with granular activated carbon was evaluated for the removal of phenols from refinery wastewater. The effects of phenol feed concentration (80–182 mg/l), feed flow rate (5–20 ...
Microbial degradation of chlorophenols
(
Springer Berlin Heidelberg
, 2017 , Article)
Chlorophenols (CPs) are hazardous pollutant that are commonly encountered as major constituents of several types of wastewater such as industrial, refinery and pharmaceutical wastewater. They are also exposed to the ...
A new process for the capture of CO2 and reduction of water salinity
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
The present work evaluates a new process for the capture of CO2 and the reduction of water salinity. It is based on the Solvay process without the use of ammonia and involves the reaction of CO2 with saline water such as ...
Evaluation of a novel gas-liquid contactor/reactor system for natural gas applications
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, a novel system for contacting gases and liquids, which may be suitable for many applications involving gas-liquid contact or gas-liquid reactions, has been developed and characterized. The system consists ...
Influence of polyelectrolytes and other polymer complexes on the flocculation and rheological behaviors of clay minerals: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article Review)
Separation of clay minerals from industrial wastewaters is of great academic and practical importance. Current treatment techniques are either not economically viable, not environmentally friendly, or both. Thus, researchers ...
Optimized long-range corrected density functionals for electronic and optical properties of bare and ligated CdSe quantum dots
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
The reliable prediction of optical and fundamental gaps of finite size systems using density functional theory requires to account for the potential self-interaction error, which is notorious for degrading the description ...
Time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy reveals the influence of charged sensitizing quantum dots on the electron dynamics in ZnO
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2017 , Article)
Photoinitiated charge carrier dynamics in ZnO nanoparticles sensitized by CdSe quantum dots is studied using transient absorption spectroscopy and time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy. The evolution of the transient spectra ...
Analysis of CO2 Solubility and Absorption Heat into Aqueous 1-Diethylamino-2-propanol
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
In this work, the CO2 equilibrium solubility in 2 M 1-diethylamino-2-propanol (1DEA2P) solution were determined as function of temperature (in the range of 298-333K), and CO2 partial pressure (in the range of 8-101 kPa). ...
Regeneration Energy Analysis of Aqueous Tri-Solvent Blends Containing 2-Amino-2-Methyl-1-Propanol (AMP), Methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) and Diethylenetriamine (DETA) for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Capture
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This study investigated the contribution of absorption heat, sensible heat and heat of vaporization towards the regeneration energy (Qreg, kJ/g-CO2) of AMP-MDEA-DETA tri-solvent blends. The experiment was conducted at ...
