Surface regeneration of templated PVDF membrane for efficient microalgae-rich high saline aquaculture wastewater treatment in membrane distillation
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
This study investigated the use of templated PVDF membranes with intermediate flushing to revive fouled membrane during membrane distillation (MD) for sustainable high saline seawater aquaculture wastewater treatment. ...
A comparison study on performance of thin film composite membrane embedded with graphene oxide for Acetaminophen, Diclofenac and Ibuprofen separation from waste water
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are one of the threats to water safety and security. These contaminants are hard to be removed due to toxicity and resistant to breakdown. In this study, thin film composite ...
Impacts of PVDF polymorphism and surface printing micro-roughness on superhydrophobic membrane to desalinate high saline water
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Many studies have focused on increasing the superhydrophobicity of membranes to enhance the sustainable desalination capability of membrane distillation (MD) process. This work focuses on the influences of crystalline ...
Surface-templating of rough interface to efficiently recover aquaculture wastewater using membrane distillation
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Aquaculture wastewater contains organics, inorganics, and microalgae, which need to be removed before being discharged into the environment or recycled. These aquaculture pollutants, especially microalgae, will reduce the ...
Simultaneous water reclamation and nutrient recovery of aquaculture wastewater using membrane distillation
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
A large amount of aquaculture wastewater with high load of nutrients, organic matter, and microalgae will pollute receiving water body and needs to treat before discharge. In this work, membrane distillation (MD) with the ...
A polyethylene glycol (PEG) – polyethersulfone (PES)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) polymer blend mixed matrix membrane for CO2/N2 separation
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
Recently, carbon capture utilizing membrane technology has received much attention to limit the adverse effect caused by rising carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere as they are less energy intensive and ...
Particle swarm optimization and global sensitivity analysis for catalytic co-pyrolysis of Chlorella vulgaris and plastic waste mixtures
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This study investigated on the co-pyrolysis of microalgae Chlorella vulgaris and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) waste mixtures which was performed with three types of catalysts, namely limestone (LS), HZSM-5 zeolite, and ...
Breath Analysis for the in Vivo Detection of Diabetic Ketoacidosis
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
Human breath analysis of volatile organic compounds has gained significant attention recently because of its rapid and noninvasive potential to detect various metabolic diseases. The detection of ketones in the breath and ...
A review on microwave-assisted synthesis of adsorbents and its application in the removal of water pollutants
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The use of conventional heating techniques in adsorbents preparation involves long synthesis time, high energy consumption, high cost and material fast firing. Recently, Microwave heating technique has been used to replace ...
The effect of N-heterocyclic carbene units on the absorption spectra of Fe(ii) complexes: A challenge for theory
The absorption spectra of five Fe(II) homoleptic and heteroleptic complexes containing strong sigma-donating N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and polypyridyl ligands have been theoretically characterized using a tuned ...
