Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials for thermal energy storage in buildings
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials (PCMs) from natural gas‐based products was investigated. Based on the quality and cost of these PCMs, two sources were identified: (i) hydrogenated ...
Synthesis and characterization of fly ash based geopolymeric membrane for produced water treatment
(
Desalination Publications
, 2019 , Article)
Geopolymerization is a green innovative technique for the synthesis of inorganic membrane using fly ash as a raw material. In this work, fly ashes from thermal power plant were used as a source material for the synthesis ...
Improved salt removal and power generation in a cascade of two hydraulically connected up-flow microbial desalination cells
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
A novel two chamber up-flow microbial desalination cell (UMDC) was designed for evaluating desalination of real seawater with simultaneous wastewater treatment and energy generation. Two UMDCs were hydraulically connected ...
Recycled polyethylene/paraffin wax/expanded graphite based heat absorbers for thermal energy storage: An artificial aging study
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
An artificial aging study of novel heat absorbers based on phase change materials (PCMs) prepared from recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE), paraffin wax (PW), and expanded graphite (EG) was investigated. The optimal ...
Influence of doped metal center on morphology and pore structure of ZIF-8
(
Cambridge University Press
, 2019 , Article)
Synthesis of ZIF with zinc, cobalt, or copper was carried out by microwaves. The effect of metal center on morphologies and pores of products was studied. Nitrogen adsorption/desorption onto ZIFs was examined by density ...
Improved petroleum refinery wastewater treatment and seawater desalination performance by combining osmotic microbial fuel cell and up-flow microbial desalination cell
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
The petroleum refinery wastewater which is a product of petroleum refinery has a high organic content. This study explores the utilization of petroleum refinery wastewater collected from petroleum refinery as a resource ...
A pinch analysis approach to environmental risk management in industrial solvent selection
(
Springer Verlag
, 2019 , Article)
Abstract: The problem of solvent selection in an industrial process has been examined in a number of different approaches, often including single- and multi-criteria optimization techniques. Traditionally, it has been ...
Self-healing performance of multifunctional polymeric smart coatings
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Multifunctional nanocomposite coatings were synthesized by reinforcing a polymeric matrix with halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) loaded with corrosion inhibitor (NaNO3) and urea formaldehyde microcapsules (UFMCs) encapsulated ...
Kinetics of reactive absorption of CO2 using aqueous blend of potassium carbonate, ethylaminoethanol, and N-methyl-2-Pyrollidone (APCEN solvent)
(
Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers
, 2018 , Article)
Employing the fall in the CO2 pressure method, the kinetics of the reactive absorption of CO2 in the aqueous blend of potassium carbonate, ethylaminoethanol, and N-methyl-2-Pyrollidone (APCEN solvent) is inspected by ...
What Happens Without Nickel? Cyclization Reactions of Ethylene with Ethanedithial and Related Molecules
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
We present a computational study of the mechanism of the formation of 6-member heterocycles through the binding of ethylene to oxaldehyde, ethanedithial, and 2-thioxoacetaldehyde. This process is related to the olefin ...
