Oil Removal From Produced Water Using Natural Materials
(2014-06)
The oil and gas industry has had to deal with a massive amount of waste water as a bi-product of the exploration of oil and gas. This waste water referred to as produced water (PW) and the amount of PW increases with the ...
Production of Activated Carbon from Sewage Sludge for the Removal of Lead from Water
(2012-06)
Different activated carbons were produced from sewage sludge taken from Sharjah waste water treatment plant. Carbonization and activation were carried out in steam environment without an external flowing inert stream or ...
Adsorption study of desulfurization of diesel oil using activated charcoal
(2015-05)
This research investigates the use of adsorptive desulfurization for diesel oil using carbon-based adsorbents, and it evaluates the effect of the adsorptive desulfurization on the ignition quality of diesel fuel. Two of ...
Treatment of produced water using graphene
(2016-01)
Adsorption is a well-known method for high efficiency in treatment of water and wastewater at low costs. It is a promising method that can compete strongly with conventional purification methods. Carbon-based materials ...
Modeling Adsorption Data of Hydrocarbons on 13X Zeolite using the Gaussian Adsorption Isotherm Model
(2013-01)
Subcritical and supercritical adsorption data available in the literature for alkanes, alkenes and aromatics on 13X zeolite are correlated using the Gaussian adsorption model. This model is specified by three parameters: ...
Removal of lead ions from wastewater using multi walled carbon nanotubes modified with sodium lauryl sulfate
(Desalination Publications, 2017-12)
Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) modified with sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) were synthe-sized, characterized and successfully used for the removal of Pb2+ from aqueous solutions. Adsorp-tion results revealed that this ...
Kinetic and thermodynamic study of phosphate removal from water by adsorption onto (Arundo donax) reeds
(SAGE Publications, 2018-02-01)
The adsorption of phosphate ion onto natural reed (Arundo donax) was studied in this work. The effect of phosphate initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, temperature, and salt addition on adsorption uptake was investigated. ...
Carbon dioxide capturing technologies: a review focusing on metal organic framework materials (MOFs)
(2014-04)
In this study, a relevant literature has been reviewed focusing on the carbon dioxide capture technologies in general, such as amine-based absorption as conventional carbon dioxide capturing technology, aqueous ammonia-based ...
Removal of nitrate from JUST wastewater effluent: a case study
(2013)
Eutrophication phenomena occurred at JUST constructed pond. The main reason of this eutrophication process is the wastewater effluent of the campus wastewater treatment plant. This is due high nitrate content of the water ...
Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel using Potato Peel Extract in 2M HCl Solution
(ResearchGate, 2011)
The inhibitive effect of naturally available potato peel extract (PPE) toward the corrosion of mild steel in 2M HCl solution has been investigated by weight loss and electrochemical techniques. The results showed increase ...
