Investigation of the effect of polyelectrolyte structure and type on the electrokinetics and flocculation behavior of bentonite dispersions
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
The influence of surface charge type and density, and molecular weight of cationic, anionic and amphoteric polyacrylamide (PAM) on the electrokinetics, adsorption and flocculation behavior of highly stable bentonite ...
Adsorption of CO2 on Cu/SiO2 nano-catalyst: Experimental and theoretical study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Copper-based silica is a promising catalyst for several reaction pathways for CO2 conversion to hydrocarbons. The activity of this catalyst in terms of conversion and product selectivity is affected by CO2 adsorption, ...
Carbon dioxide EGR and sequestration in mature and immature shale: Adsorption study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Recently, CO2 sequestration in different shale formations has become an attractive option owing to the abundance of shale basins. However, these formations have different maturity levels and contain a variety of minerals ...
A theoretical study of gas adsorption on calcite for CO2 enhanced natural gas recovery
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
The adsorption of gas molecules (CO2, CH4, H2O, H2S and N2) on calcite (104) has been studied by means of Density Functional Theory for molecular characterization of Enhanced Gas Recovery (EGR) CO2 injection. Results show ...
Effect of surface morphology on methane interaction with calcite: a DFT study
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2020 , Article)
Natural gas, consisting primarily of methane, is found in carbonate reservoirs of which calcite is major component. However, the complexity and heterogeneity of carbonate reservoirs remain a major challenge in estimating ...
Kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies for adsorptive removal of cobalt ions by rice husk from aqueous solution
(
Desalination Publications
, 2020 , Article)
Herein, batch adsorptive removal of cobalt ions (Co(II)) from aqueous solution was studied at room temperature. Adsorption of cobalt ions onto rice husk (RH) was confirmed by utilizing Fourier transform infrared, scanning ...
The application of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon in removing humic substances from water and wastewater: Column studies
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2010 , Article)
The efficiency of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon for the removal of humic substance (HS) from water and wastewater was demonstrated in batch studies. This paper investigated ...
A solid-phase extractant based on microemulsion modified date pits for toxic pollutants
(2013 , Article)
Application of microemulsion modified raw date pits as an inexpensive solid extractant for removing methylene blue (MB), copper ion (Cu2+) and cadmium ion (Cd2+) has been presented. The results summarised herein are also ...
Polymeric adsorbents for oil removal from water
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, the application of four synthetic resins for the removal of emulsified oil from produced water was investigated. Key experimental parameters such as adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial oil concentration ...
Diatomite chemical activation for effective adsorption of methylene blue dye from model textile wastewater
(
International Journal of Environmental Science and Development
, 2021 , Article)
Dye wastewater produced in textile industries is a warning issue that threatens the environment due to discharge into the waterway. This study reviewed the adsorption of Methylene Blue (MB), as a toxic dye, onto diatomite ...
