    • Forward Osmosis Desalination Using Ferric Sulfate Draw Solute 

      Qasim, Muhammad; Mohammed, Faisal Waleed; Aidan, Ahmed; Darwish, Naif A. (Elsevier, 2017-12-01)
      Lack of suitable draw solutes is one of the major limiting factors hindering commercial realization of forward osmosis (FO) desalination process. This study investigates the feasibility of ferric sulfate as draw solute in ...

    • Hydrogen Sulphide Removal Using a Novel Biofilter Media 

      Shareefdeen, Zarook; Aidan, Ahmed; Ahmed, Wasim; Khatri, M. B.; Islam, Mohammad; Lecheheb, R.; Shams, F. (2010-02)
      Air emissions from waste treatment plants often consist of a combination of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and odors. Hydrogen sulfide is one of the major odorous gases present in the waste emissions coming from municipal ...

    • Kinetics and Modeling of H2S Removal in a Novel Biofilter 

      Shareefdeen, Zarook; Ahmed, Wasim; Aidan, Ahmed (2011-04)
      Biofiltration has become a widely accepted technology for the removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) which is one of the major odor causing gases present in the air streams of municipal wastewater treatment facilities. In ...

    • Modeling and dynamic analysis of a membrane bioreactor withbackwash scheduling 

      Alnaizy, Raafat; Abdel-Jabbar, Nabil; Aidan, Ahmed; Abachi, Noor Ali (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 ...

    • Performance assessment of a pilot-size vacuum rotation membrane bioreactor treating urban wastewater 

      Alnaizy, Raafat; Aidan, Ahmed; Luo, Haonan (2011-12)
      This study investigated the suitability and performance of a pilot-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR). Huber vacuum rotation membrane (VRM 20/36) bioreactor was installed at the Sharjah sewage treatment plant (STP) in the ...

    • Process design of waste gas treatment from Emirates Gold Refinery 

      Aidan, Ahmed; Alnaizy, Raafat; Nenov, Valentin; Abdelrahman, Omar (2011-06)
      In this case study, the process modifications and improvement to the existing process at the Emirates Gold refinery (in order to meet the United Arab Emirates (UAE) nitrogen oxides air emission regulations) is presented. ...

    • Produced Water Treatment Using Naturally Abundant Pomegranate Peel 

      Ibrahim, Taleb; Gulistan, Abdul Sami; Khamis, Mustafa; Ahmed, Hussain; Aidan, Ahmed (Taylor & Francis, 2016)
      Pomegranate peel powder (PPP) was employed as a low cost adsorbent for the removal of crude oil from simulated produced water (SPW). The effect of contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, as well as temperature on the efficiency ...
