    • Adsorptive Desulfurization of Commercial Diesel oil Using Granular Activated Charcoal 

      Al Zubaidi, Isam; Darwish, Noora; Elsayed, Yehya; Shareefdeen, Zarook; Sara, Ziad (2015)
      The adsorption of sulfur compounds form commercial diesel oil on a granular activated charcoal (GAC) was investigated. The equilibrium of sulfur adsorption on GAC was examined. The adsorption isotherms were determined and ...
    • Fuel recovery from waste oily sludge using solvent extraction 

      Al Zubaidi, Isam; Abouelnasr, Dana (2010-09)
      Solvent extraction was used to recover oil from waste sludge generated from the storage of crude petroleum. Different solvent-to-sludge mass ratios were used for two solvents, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and LPG condensate ...
    • Novel method for water purification using activated adsorbents developed from sewage sludge 

      Elsayed, Yehya; Khamis, Mustafa; Samara, Fatin; Alqaydi, Maitha; Sara, Ziad; Al Zubaidi, Isam; Mortula, Maruf (Taylor & Francis, 2016)
      Sewage sludge from Dubai was characterized using inductively coupled plasma and CHN elemental analysis. Selected sludge samples were washed with deionized water until constant conductivity was achieved. The sludge samples ...
    • Production of sustainable pavement with oil sludge 

      Al-Tamimi, Adil; Al Zubaidi, Isam (2014-05)
      Oil sludge (OS) has been used as partial replacement of asphalt binder for road asphalt production. The properties of OS were studied and the results showed that it has high content of heavy oil. The oil removal from OS ...
    • Remediation of water from crude oil spill using a fibrous sorbent 

      Al Zubaidi, Isam; Al-Tamimi, Adil; Ahmed, Hussain (Elsevier, 2016-11)
      Remediation of oil-polluted water was studied using waste tire cord fiber WTCF as a waste fibrous sorbent. The rate of sorption, sorption capacity, oil retention, water uptake, adsorption isotherm model, and kinetic behavior ...
    • Soil remediation from waste lubricating oil 

      Al Zubaidi, Isam; Al-Tamimi, Adil (Elsevier, 2018-02)
      Soil remediation was investigated from waste oil contamination. Contamination of different soil particle diameters was prepared with different dosage of waste oil contamination. Solvent extraction technique was employed ...
