Cleaning of ceramic membranes for produced water filtration
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. The application of ceramic microfiltration membranes to the tertiary treatment of produced water from an Arabian Gulf oilfield has been studied using a dedicated pilot plant. Studies were based on a ...
Room-temperature development of thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes from cellulose acetate with antibacterial properties
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
A cellulose acetate thin film composite (CA TFC) membrane was developed by direct casting of CA onto an ultrafiltration membrane support. The flux through the CA TFC membrane was, as expected, inversely proportional to the ...
Laundry wastewater treatment using ultrafiltration under different operating conditions
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The laundry wastewater of one of the hospitals in Qatar was selected and studied. It was found that hospital laundry is releasing considerable amount of wastewater i.e. 1800 - 2500 liters/cycle while washing 40 - 50 kg of ...
Metal-oxide nanotubes functional material tailored for membrane water/wastewater treatment
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Titanium Dioxide Nano-Tubes (TNTs) synthesized by hydrothermal method were used to prepare new polysulfone thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes. The TFN membranes contained different TNTs proportions (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 ...
Comparison between multi-stage and single stage microalgae dewatering processes
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The present work shows a quick, simple and accurate method for algae harvesting with a potential to relate the required polymer dose with in-situ hydrodynamics properties of alga solution. The method also reduces the lag ...
Industrial effluent treatment with immersed MBRs: Treatability and cost
(
IWA Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
A comprehensive OPEX analysis for both municipal and industrial wastewaters has been conducted encompassing energy, critical component (membrane) replacement, chemicals consumption, waste disposal and labour. The analysis ...
Kinetics of CO 2 reaction with N-methyldiethanolamine and aminobutanol using stopped flow technique
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Removal of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from natural gas streams is mandatory to avoid pipeline corrosion, increase the heating value of the gas and reduce the gas volume in case of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The use of ...
Development of novel thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes for desalination
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Microporous Polyetherimide (PEI) membranes were prepared by wet phase inversion at different temperatures. The thin film composites (TFC) of polyamide on microporous PEI were prepared using meta-Phenylenediamine (MPD) and ...
A systematic approach for design and simulation of monoethylene glycol (MEG) recovery in oil and gas industry
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Monoethylene glycol (MEG) is a widely used hydrate inhibitor in the oil and gas industry to reduce the risk of hydrate formation in pipelines that could cause a blockage. For flow assurance and hydrate inhibition purposes, ...
Destabilization of stable bentonite colloidal suspension using choline chloride based deep eutectic solvent: Optimization study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Choline chloride (ChCl) based natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) were synthesized and tested as coagulant for stable bentonite colloidal suspensions. In this work, three ChCl based natural deep eutectic solvent NADES ...
