Detailed organic characterization of process water to evaluate reverse osmosis membrane fouling in industrial wastewater treatment
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)One of the major waste streams within the oil and gas (O&G) industry is produced and process water generated during hydrocarbon production and treatment, respectively. In gas production facilities, process water typically ... -
Electrospun Polysulfone Hybrid Nanocomposite Fibers as Membrane for Separating Oil/Water Emulsion
( Springer Nature , 2023 , Article)Commercial polymer membranes are largely utilized to separate oil/water mixtures; however, membrane fouling, flux decline, and short lifetime often inhibit their high performance. In order to resolve these drawbacks of the ... -
Evaluation of cellulose triacetate hollow fiber membrane for volume reduction of real industrial effluents through an osmotic concentration process: A pilot-scale study
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)The current article tackles the challenge of reducing wastewater volumes generated from the gas industry. A forward osmosis (FO) pilot unit, deployed as osmotic concentration (OC) process without the draw solution (DS) ... -
Evaluation of polymeric adsorbents via fixed-bed columns for emulsified oil removal from industrial wastewater
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article)Polymeric adsorbents (PAs) have been gaining increased attention for application in industrial wastewater (WW) treatment. However, most studies on evaluating PAs specifically for emulsified oil removal are currently limited ... -
Industrial wastewater volume reduction through osmotic concentration: Membrane module selection and process modeling
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Osmotic concentration (OC), a form of forward osmosis (FO) but without draw solution recovery, can be applied for reducing wastewater disposal volumes in the oil & gas industry. Within this industry, wastewater is often ... -
Membrane distillation: recent technological developments and advancements in membrane materials
( Springer Nature , 2022 , Article Review)Membrane distillation (MD) is a novel desalination technology that has potential to produce distilled quality water from high salinity brine streams. The driving force for MD is the vapor pressure difference across a ... -
Modification of polyethylene for oil-water separation in industrial wastewater treatment
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is extensively used worldwide in various applications due to its versatile features and abundant commercial availability. This study investigated, for the first time, the beneficial use of ... -
Pilot-scale evaluation of forward osmosis membranes for volume reduction of industrial wastewater
( Elsevier B.V. , 2022 , Article)Water treatment is a key aspect for the sustainable management of oil & gas operations. Osmotic concentration (OC) is an advanced water treatment process, adapted from forward osmosis (FO), that does not require water ... -
Pilot-scale investigation of flowrate and temperature influence on the performance of hollow fiber forward osmosis membrane in osmotic concentration process
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)Forward osmosis (FO) relying on the osmotic pressure difference across semi-permeable membrane draws permeate by the effect of saline draw solution (DS) turning diluted and leaving the feed solution (FS) concentrated. ... -
Salinity gradient energy generation by pressure retarded osmosis: A review
( Elsevier B.V. , 2021 , Article)Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) has gained attention due to its use as a salinity gradient energy-generating membrane process. This process can convert difference in salinity between two streams into energy as it allows ...
