    • Assessment of Disinfection By-Product Formation in Polymeric Pipe Distribution Systems 

      Shabani, Sina (2013-06)
      In recent years, polymeric materials have become the dominant type of material used for drinking water pipe distribution systems. They have some advantages over other types of pipes such as cast iron, ductile iron, concrete, ...
    • Desalination Using Deionization 

      Rahwan, George; Awad, Soliman; Elagab, Sali; Kaiache, Zakaria (2014-07-22)
      The largest source of the water in the world is the ocean. In 2025, 40% of the world will be living in water scarce regions. There is an obvious demand for water at all times. The dominating desalinization process are ...
    • Desalination Using Solar Ponds 

      Ali Khan, Murtaza; Rashid, Mohammed; Shaikh, Mohammad Usamah; Ahmed, Shoaib (2014-07-22)
      The growing demand of freshwater is placing huge pressure on existing supplies. Seawater is a vast source to satisfy this demand. However, seawater cannot be directly consumed and therefore, desalination of seawater is a ...
    • Graphene Use in Wave Powered Desalination 

      Kochar, Shreya; Alnaqbi, Amina; Hammada, Ahmed; Ismail, Lynne Abou (2016-11)
      As the world’s population is predicted to increase, consumption of drinking water will increase. However, the freshwater withdrawals have tripled over the last 50 years and this is predicted to increase even more in the ...
    • Membrane Bioreactor-Desalination Microbial Fuel Cell Hybrid System 

      Mukhtar, Noora Hussein Adam (2018-04)
      The microbial desalination fuel cell (MDFC) is an emerging desalination technology offering great promise of high salinity removal with zero energy input. Moreover, the membrane bioreactor (MBR) is of great reliability in ...
    • Modeling Water Flux in Forward Osmosis: Implications for Improved Membrane Design 

      Al Mazrooei, Muna (2013-05)
      In efforts to make fresh water available to all people, researchers are dedicated to establish a water treatment method that will reduce the cost of production and impact on the environment. Forward osmosis desalination ...
    • Performance of Forward Osmosis Using Various Membranes 

      Qasim, Muhammad (2013-01)
      As a result of water scarcity, increasing demand for freshwater, and energy intensive nature of the conventional desalination processes, advancing the science of desalination is crucial in the development of sustainable ...
    • Phosphorus and Algae Removal via Adsorption 

      Ghadban, Ahmad A. (2012-01)
      Algal bloom, commonly known as Red Tide in coastal areas, has become one of the major problems facing desalination plants due to the high biomass concentration of microalgae associated with it. It causes operational problems ...
    • Produced water treatment using microbial desalination cells 

      Goel, Apoorva (2018-05)
      Globally, 250 million barrels of produced water is generated daily for extracting 80 million barrels of oil. Having a highly variable composition and no economic value, produced water presents serious environmental problems. ...
