Formation of Bromate in Pet Bottle Water
(2014-01)
High bromate levels in bottle water is a concern in UAE. In this study, bromate formation in bottles of drinking water was studied while exposed to various temperatures, storage times and pH levels. Three brands, referred ...
Development of Activated Carbon Fibers for Organic Removals
(2017-11)
Phenols are classified to be one of the most hazardous pollutants found in wastewater. They are discharged into rivers, lakes and seas, causing adverse effects on the enviromental and human health. Adsorption is a well-known ...
Iterative Methods for the Solution of a Steady State Biofilter Model
(2017-11)
Biofilter modeling helps in understanding the biofiltration process and designing of full-scale biofilters. The biofilter models with complex kinetics do not have analytical solutions and numerical algorithms are typically ...
Treatment of Spent Caustic Using Ionic Liquids
(2017-04)
Treatment of spent caustic (SC) wastes from downstream of refineries and petrochemical industries is not only complex but also highly expensive due to its content of high concentration of hazardous compounds, high pH, ...
Removal of Heavy Metals from Wastewater Using Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes
(2017-04)
Recently, carbon nanotubes have been employed as new adsorbent for the removal of many pollutants. In this study, raw multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were firstly tested for the removal of lead from aqueous solutions. ...
Sequential batch contactors for removal of chromium (VI) from wastewater using sheep's wool
(2017-05)
The effluent streams of various industries contain heavy metals like chromium. The hexavalent form of it is highly toxic, which needs specific intensive treatment before disposal. Sheep’s wool, as a keratinous adsorbent, ...
