Impact of sampling technique on the performance of surrogate models generated with artificial neural network (ANN): A case study for a natural gas stabilization unit
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Data-driven models are essential tools for the development of surrogate models that can be used for the design, operation, and optimization of industrial processes. One approach of developing surrogate models is through ...
Erosion behavior of API X120 steel: Effect of particle speed and impact angle
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
The dry erosion behavior of API-X120 pipeline steel was investigated, under the erosive interaction of aluminum oxide particulates, in a range of speed (43-167 m·s-1) and impact angle (30°-90°). Erosion behavior is ...
Accurate PpT Data for Methane from (300 to 450) K up to 180 MPa
(
American Chemical Society
, 2010 , Article)
This paper reports PFT data measured with a high-pressure, single-sinker, magnetic-suspension densimeter (MSD)
from (300 to 450) K up to 180 MPa. Our MSD technique yields accurate data, with less than 0.05 % relative

Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) based polymer nanocomposite membranes for gas separation
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2012 , Article)
As synthesised ZIF-8 nanoparticles (size ∼ 60 nm and specific surface area ∼ 1300–1600 m2 g−1) were directly incorporated into a model polymer matrix (Matrimid® 5218) by solution mixing. This produces flexible transparent ...
Recent advances on the treatment of oil fields produced water by adsorption and advanced oxidation processes
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The handling and treatment of produced water (PW) generated during oil and gas extraction has continued to be a serious dilemma due to its large quantities and complex composition with variety of pollutants. In this review ...
Bio self-healing concrete using MICP by an indigenous Bacillus cereus strain isolated from Qatari soil
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
In this study, the self-healing process in concrete through microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) performed by an adapted indigenous strain of Bacillus cereus isolated from soils in Qatar was investigated. ...
From Waste to Watts: Updates on Key Applications of Microbial Fuel Cells in Wastewater Treatment and Energy Production
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Due to fossil fuel depletion and the rapid growth of industry, it is critical to develop environmentally friendly and long-term alternative energy technologies. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a powerful platform for ...
A critical review of the development and demulsification processes applied for oil recovery from oil in water emulsions
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The formation of stable emulsions is a fundamental problem in oil industry that can result in a sequence of environmental and operational problems. Chemical demulsification is extensively applied for the recovery of oil ...
Development and properties of polymeric nanocomposite coatings
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Polymeric-based nanocomposite coatings were synthesized by reinforcing epoxy matrix with titanium nanotubes (TNTs) loaded with dodecylamine (DOC). The performance of the developed nanocomposite coatings was investigated ...
Adsorption kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies of eosin-B onto anion exchange membrane
(
Desalination Publications
, 2019 , Article)
In this research, batch adsorption of anionic dye Eosin-B (EB) onto anion exchange membrane (AEM)
(BI) from aqueous solution has been investigated at room temperature. The effect of some operating
conditions such as ...
