Designing of polyethylene-based material modified by plasma discharge for water/oil separation
(2021 , Master Thesis)Produced water (PW) from petrochemical industries is one of the largest wastewaters generated in Qatar. Soluble and insoluble oil contaminants occur in this water and must be removed if water will be used or discharged ... -
Enhancement of the Interfacial Adhesive Strength between Low Density Polyethylene and Aluminum Foil for Packaging Applications
(2021 , Master Thesis)The low-density polyethylene/aluminum (LDPE/Al) joint in Tetra Pak liquid containers provides stability and strength to the food package, ensures protection against outside moisture, and maintains the nutritional values ... -
Fabrication of Nano-Composite Membrane for FO Desalination
(2021 , Master Thesis)The aim of this work is to solve the current issues experienced in forward osmosis (FO) membranes such as low water flux, membrane fouling, and high reverse solute flux (RSF). We also propose a novel technique to ... -
Heat Absorbers based on Recycled Polyethylene and Paraffin Wax for Energy Storage
(2016 , Master Thesis)The building sector is one of the main sectors in Qatar; however, it consumes a huge portion of primary energy sources. Today, there is a worldwide trend to utilize renewable sources of energy to cover buildings’ energetic ... -
Polymer-Matrix Nanocomposite Membranes For Water Treatment
(2019 , Master Thesis)A new generation of advanced fibrous materials with high surface area, large number of pores, high flexibility and adjustable wettability were manufactured from different materials which are viable for many applications ... -
Relationship between structure, properties and UV/Heat protection behavior of two different types of polyethylene manufactured in Qatar
(2021 , Professional Masters Project)Accelerated (artificial) weathering and thermal ageing tests were performed to investigate the effectiveness of different UV/HALS formulations in reducing the UV/heat degradation effect for two different low-density ...
