Dynamic modeling and analysis of biotrickling filters in continuous operation for H2S remova
(2014-12)
A number of important biotrickling filter (BTF) models are reviewed. For our study, a theoretical model, based on H2S removal in a differential BTF under batch mode, was selected among the models reviewed. Using a cascade ...
Modeling and dynamic analysis of a membrane bioreactor withbackwash scheduling
(2012-03)
A dynamic model, based on mass transport and reaction rate laws of biomass and substrate for a membrane bioreactor (MBR), was successfully developed. Furthermore, an empirical model for flux prediction was used. Key kinetic ...
Optimizing the use of ultrasound to deliver chemotherapeutic agents to cancer cells from polymeric micelles
(Elsevier, 2011)
In this study, we present an artificial neural network (ANN) model that attempts to predict the dynamic release of doxorubicin (Dox) from P105 micelles under different ultrasonic power densities at 20 kHz. The goal is to ...
Use of Model Predictive Control and Artificial Neural Networks to Optimize the Ultrasonic Release of a Model Drug From Liposomes
(IEEE, 2017)
The use of echogenic liposomes to deliver chemotherapeutic agents for cancer treatment has gained wide recognition in the last 20 years. Cancerous cells can develop multiple drug resistance (MDR), in part, due to the drop ...
Optimum ethane recovery in conventional turboexpander process
(Elsevier, 2010)
Ethane recovery in a conventional turboexpander process is optimized considering different demethanizer pressures and different feeds: a lean gas and a rich one. The design variables are varied, while meeting process ...
Thermal Conductivities of Choline Chloride-Based Deep Eutectic Solvents and Their Mixtures with Water: Measurement and Estimation
(MDPI, 2020)
The thermal conductivities of selected deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were determined using the modified transient plane source (MTPS) method over the temperature range from 295 K to 363 K at atmospheric pressure. The results ...
Incorporating Computer-Aided Software in the Undergraduate Chemical Engineering Core Courses
(Chemical Engineering Education, 2014)
Introductions of computer-aided software and simulators are implemented during the sophomore-year of the chemical engineering (ChE) curriculum at the American University of Sharjah (AUS). Our faculty concurs that software ...
