Membrane Distillation Crystallization Hybrid Process for Zero Liquid Discharge in QAFCO Plant
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Qatar fertilizer company (QAFCO) is one of the world’s largest single site producer of ammonia and urea with production capacity of 12,900 metric tons per day. Currently, QAFCO faces major challenges in terms of water ...
Simultaneous CO2 treatment and blue energy generation from wasted industrial streams
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
In the last decade, there has been an increased global need for finding bright solutions to tackle industrial wastes and emissions release. Herein, this work explores the utilization of a compact Reverse Electrodialysis ...
Lithium capture in seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) brine using membrane-based capacitive deionization (MCDI) system
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Lithium-battery based industries including vehicles, electronics, fusion and thermonuclear, consume lithium rapidly, which raises the need for developing a lithium recovery system. Lithium global market consumption in 2016 ...
Facile and Novel LiAlO2 Film Electrodes for Energy Efficient Li recovery from Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) Brine
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Concentration of Li in seawater is too low at 0.17 ppm despite its high content altogether with a reported 230 billion tons. Hence, seawater is not a practical source to recover Li from; Li is largely extracted by solar ...
Emerging clay-aryl-gold nanohybrids for efficient electrocatalytic proton reduction
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
There is an ever growing demand for renewable sources of energy to replace conventional fossil fuels. One of the alternatives is usage of hydrogen production by electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Toward ...
Tandem osmotic engine based on hydrogel particles with antipolyelectrolyte and polyelectrolyte effect fuelled by both salinity gradient modes
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
In this study, we propose a new approach to attain energy by salinity gradient engines with pistons based on hydrogels possessing polyelectrolyte and antipolyelectrolyte effects in a tandem arrangement, providing energy ...
Immobilization of concanavalin A lectin on a reduced graphene oxide-thionine surface by glutaraldehyde crosslinking for the construction of an impedimetric biosensor
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Lectins, which are proteins with selective affinity to glycans or glycoproteins, have been recognized as promising agents for the construction of devices for the detection of specific glycoproteins and for glycoprofiling. ...
Tailoring electrocatalytic properties of Pt nanoparticles grown on Ti3C2Tx MXene surface
(
Electrochemical Society, Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, the spontaneous and NaBH4-induced reduction of chloroplatinic acid on the surface of Ti3C2TX MXene was investigated to synthesize a hybrid PtNP-decorated MXene nanomaterial (MX-Pt) with potential as hydrogen ...
