Ultrasound-assisted oxidative desulphurization of coal using choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents
( Springer Nature , 2024 , Article)The emission of sulfur compounds during the combustion of coal is the main cause of atmospheric pollution and poses a threat to human health and the ecosystem. Thus, elimination of sulfur compounds from coal before its use ... -
Uncovering responses of zooplankton community to CO2 acidification in Qatar coastal waters
( Hamad Bin Khalifa University Press , 2016 , Conference Paper)The combustion of fossil fuels is pushing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) to unprecedented levels. This rapid increase in atmospheric CO2 is causing global changes, with noticeable increases in temperature, ... -
Understanding impact of heat, drought, and salinity stresses on growth and physiological attributes of Chenopodium album under field conditions
( Springer , 2023 , Article)Utilizing potential of wild crop relatives becomes a necessity under current climate trends scenario. Chenopodium album is a natural inhabitant of Qatari harsh environment that is characterised by a combination of various ... -
Unveiling the nexus between atmospheric visibility, remotely sensed pollutants, and climatic variables across diverse topographies: A data-driven exploration empowered by artificial intelligence
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Deteriorating visual range (VR) can cause challenges for the transportation sector, resulting in economic and life losses. Air pollutants, smoke, fog, and many meteorological parameters such as air temperature (T), relative ... -
Using vertebrate environmental DNA from seawater in biomonitoring of marine habitats
( Wiley , 2019 , Article)Conservation and management of marine biodiversity depends on biomonitoring of marine habitats, but current approaches are resource‐intensive and require different approaches for different organisms. Environmental DNA ... -
Utilization of Two Microalgae Species, Synechococcus sp. and Cheatoceros sp., for Aquatic Toxicity Assessments in the Qatari Marine Environmen
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Conference Paper)Microalgal bioassays are currently used worldwide to help assess the impacts of contaminants on aquatic ecosystems. Algae are particularly important to such assessments because they represent the basic trophic level of the ... -
Validation of Total Mercury in Marine Sediment and Biological Samples, Using Cold Vapour Atomic Absorption Spectrometry
( MDPI , 2018 , Article)A method for the measurement of total mercury (T-Hg) in environmental samples using cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (CV AAS) has been validated yielding a dynamic range (0.04–10.00 g/kg) and high certified ... -
Variability of Physical and Biogeochemical Parameters in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Qatar
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)The oceanographic data collected along a transect in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar during late summer (September 2014) and winter (January 2015) have been analyzed to investigate the spatial and temporal ... -
Vertical and seasonal variations in biofilm formation on plastic substrates in coastal waters of the Black Sea
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Plastic contamination of the marine environment is an increasing concern worldwide. Therefore, it is important to understand the kinetics of biofilms on plastics to study their behavior, fate, and transport pathways in the ... -
Visible light assisted photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue using iodine doped Fe3O4-GO composite
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Environmental contamination and wastewater discharge from industrial activities are global issues that must be addressed immediately. The uncontrolled discharge of dangerous organic compounds constitutes a significant ... -
Wastewater remediation using coal fly ash nanocomposites
( Elsevier , 2020 , Book chapter)The rapid contamination of and drastic decrease in clean water sources have forced researchers towards the development and implementation of highly efficient wastewater treatment (WWT) technologies. Adsorption alone is an ... -
Water, energy and food supply security in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries-A risk perspective
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article Review)Supply systems for water, energy and food in the Gulf region are becoming highly interlinked. In the last decades, interdependence was evident in the increase of coproduction plants and the cross-sectoral resource use ...
