Green Inhibition of Mild Steel Corrosion in a CO2 Saturated Saline Solution
(2015-05)
Mild steel is extensively used in equipment such as pipelines and machinery by many industries, where it is exposed to corrosive environments. Dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) can be found in produced water and results in ...
Development and Evaluation of Nano-silica Sustainable Concrete
(2017-05)
The concrete industry is one of the main contributors in the emission of carbon dioxide. Yet, it is the most used man-made material. In the past few decades, different pozzolanic materials were used as a partial replacement ...
Thermodynamic Analysis of Integrated Fuel Cell and Solar Energy Systems
(2011-06)
In the last few decades, world has seen an exponential increase in energy demand. This high increase in demand brought with it the issue of global warming. In this research, we will be studying alternative energy sources ...
Design and performance of sustainable/green concrete
(2016-01)
Concrete is the most used construction material in the world. However, the production of one ton of cement, which is the main ingredient of concrete, releases about one ton of carbon dioxide, and consumes natural resources, ...
Framework for a Decision Matrix in Green Project Management Processes
(2015-01)
The purpose of this study is to develop a decision matrix for green project management processes (GPMPs) in commercial construction projects. A decision matrix for GPMPs can assist in decoding all the information required ...
Benchmarking Energy Management Systems in Metro Stations
(2015-05)
Energy and environmental sustainability have become central objectives in mobility system design and mass transit schemes. In addition to environmental prudence, a new world economic order calls for more efficient use of ...
Sustainability Assessment of Machining Processes
(2013-12)
There is an increased interest in sustainability assessment of manufacturing systems and processes. Various machining practices are being proposed as sustainable and require careful investigation. The current sustainability ...
Electrochemical Studies on the Corrosion Behavior of Common Metals in Eutectic Ionic Liquids
(2017-05)
Recently, new green novel solvents called Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) were investigated as substitute for none environmentally friendly organic solvents and ionic liquids that are used in many applications such as metal ...
Sustainability Assessment of Welding Processes
(2017-05)
In today's world, calls for 'sustainability' are increasing in order to preserve our resources and our environment. Many initiatives are being put in motion to make our lives more 'sustainable'. This concept of 'sustainability' ...
