How the activation process modifies the hydrogen storage behavior of biomass-derived activated carbons
(
Springer US
, 2017 , Article)
Microporous activated carbons (ACs) derived from biomass residues, by virtue of their low-cost, good thermo-mechanical stability and easy adsorbent regeneration, are widely considered as hydrogen storage materials for ...
Advancement and new perspectives of using formulated reactive amine blends for post-combustion carbon dioxide (CO2) capture technologies
(
KeAi Communications Co.
, 2017 , Article Review)
Chemical absorption using amine-based solvents have proven to be the most studied, as well as the most reliable and efficient technology for capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from exhaust gas streams and synthesis gas in all ...
Untitled
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
Abstract: Haematite (?-Fe2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) of different sizes and morphologies were prepared from two different iron precursors (iron acetate (A) and iron nitrate (N)) using the sol�gel technique, through a reaction ...
Effect of the support on physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of cobalt based nano-catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch reaction
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this paper, comparative investigations of the effects of CNTs and ?-Al2O3 on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performances of Co based nano-catalyst during FTS have been presented. Catalysts were prepared ...
Fuzzy Logic-Based Model to Predict the Impact of Flow Rate and Turbidity on the Performance of Multimedia Filters
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
This paper uses fuzzy logic-based models to predict and evaluate the performance of multimedia filters utilized in wastewater treatment. A fuzzy logic-based model is constructed and trained to predict the operating time ...
Arabic gum as green agent for ZnO nanoparticles synthesis: properties, mechanism and antibacterial activity
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
The size and morphology of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were controlled in the presence of the natural and green agent, Arabic gum. Lower amounts of Arabic gum showed a greater effect on the size and morphology as well as ...
Synthesis and characterization of poly(vinyl alcohol): Cloisite 20A nanocomposites
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Polymeric nanocomposite materials are very important materials because of their promised applications. However, many of their fundamental physical, mechanical, and chemical behaviors have not been quantified. Depending on ...
Multilayer-MCTDH approach to the energy transfer dynamics in the LH2 antenna complex
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
The multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree method is used to study the coupled exciton–vibrational dynamics in a high-dimensional nonameric model of the LH2 antenna complex of purple bacteria. The exciton–vibrational ...
Review on Surfactant Flooding: Phase Behavior, Retention, IFT, and Field Applications
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article Review)
Surfactant flooding is an important technique used in enhanced oil recovery to reduce the amount of oil in pore space of matrix rock. Surfactants are injected to mobilize residual oil by lowering the interfacial tension ...
Photocatalytic Degradation of Pentachlorophenol Using ZnO Nanoparticles: Study of Intermediates and Toxicity
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
The photocatalytic degradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was carried out using ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of sunlight. The effect of different ZnO NPs sizes was synthesized by sol–gel method as well as loading ...
