Petroleum refinery wastewater treatment: A pilot scale study
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A three-step pilot plant was designed, fabricated and tested for the treatment of highly contaminated petroleum refinery wastewater. The three-step process consisted of an electrocoagulation (EC) unit, a biological treatment ...
Enhancing gas loading and reducing energy consumption in acid gas removal systems: A simulation study based on real NGL plant data
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Amine scrubbing with absorption and desorption is the most established technology for Acid Gas Removal (AGR) systems, but suffers from high regeneration energy requirements and, hence offers a good ...
A practical approach to CO2 sequestration: Reactions with high salinity water
(
OMICS
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Carbon dioxide is known to be a major contributor to global warming and climate change and hence has an adverse effect on environmental sustainability. CO2 is emitted by various activities associated with industrial processes ...
Effect of electrolytes on electrokinetics and flocculation behavior of bentonite-polyacrylamide dispersions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. In this study, the influence of electrolytes on bentonite dispersions flocculated with different polyacrylamides varying in charge type, density and molecular weights has been investigated. The presence ...
A perforated electrode design for passivation reduction during the electrochemical treatment of produced water
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Produced water refers to the water that is generated when oil and gas are extracted from the ground, and it usually includes the natural water layer within the reservoir (formation water) as well as the injected water. The ...

Optimization of a combined approach for the treatment of carbide slurry and capture of CO2
(
Science Publications
, 2016 , Article)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential use of electrocoagulation in the treatment of carbide slurry, a wastewater generated during the production of acetylene, and in the capture of carbon dioxide. An electrochemical ...
Catalytic methane decomposition to carbon nanostructures and cox-free hydrogen: A mini-review
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article Review)
Catalytic methane decomposition (CMD) is a highly promising approach for the rational production of relatively COx-free hydrogen and carbon nanostructures, which are both important in multidisciplinary catalytic applications, ...
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 ...
