Improving biogas production from agricultural waste by photo-Fenton process
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The Study investigates the enhancement of biogas production from a mixture of agricultural solid waste, wastewater and manure by Photo-Fenton prices process. The effect of the total solids, organic content, nutrient and ...
Solar Energy Storage via Thermochemical Metal Oxide/Metal Sulfate Water Splitting Cycle
(
Materials Research Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the effect of Ar molar flow-rate on thermodynamic efficiency analysis of zinc oxide-zinc sulfate (ZnS-ZnO) water splitting cycle useful for solar H2 production. The thermodynamic efficiency analysis is ...
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 ...
Assessment of carbon bio-fixation by mixed indigenous microalgae
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This study assesses the potential use of mixed Indigenous Microalgae (MIMA) for carbon capture from flue gases in a photo-bioreactor. The effect of inlet CO2 concentration on the carbon biofixation rate was investigated. ...
Study of reaction mechanism in solution combustion synthesis of transition metals
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the reaction mechanism followed during the solution combustion synthesis of transition metals (Cu, Ni and Co) and their alloys. Metal nitrates were mixed with a choice of fuel (glycine, and ...
The potential use of solar photocatalytic oxidation for removal of emerging pharmaceuticals from effluent of wastewater treatment plant: A pilot plant study
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The treatment of effluent wastewater containing pharmaceutical by solar advanced oxidation processes were studied in a pilot plant. The removal efficiency of four groups of pharmaceuticals (antibiotics, estrogens, acidic, ...
Potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae for carbon dioxide bio-fixation and advanced wastewater treatment
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a CO2 capturing technology and treatment process for wastewaters was evaluated at two temperatures ( 25 and 30 C) and different CO2 dosage ( 0%, 5% and 15%). During ...
Understanding ethanol hydrogen abstraction mechanism on CuNi catalyst
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this work we report the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles using solution combustion synthesis. These nanopowders are used as catalyst in ethanol decomposition reaction for hydrogen production. In situ study of ...
