A bioassimilation and bioaccumulation model for the removal of heavy metals from wastewater using algae: New strategy
( Institution of Chemical Engineers , 2020 , Article)A mathematical model for bioassimilation (BS) combined with bioaccumulation (BC) has been conducted to determine the removal and recovery of heavy metals (HMs) from wastewater using green algae. Response Surface and Box ... -
Algal bioremediation versus conventional wastewater treatment
( Elsevier , 2022 , Book chapter)Microalgae-based wastewater (Ww) treatment systems are gaining popularity in recent years and offer a simple and cost-effective tertiary biotreatment process combined with the production of valuable biomass that can be ... -
The benthic sea-silk-thread displacement of a sessile bivalve, Pinctada imbricata radiata (Leach, 1819) in the Arabian-Persian Gulf
( Public Library of Science , 2019 , Article)A number of molluscs within the Class Bivalvia are defined by their ability to secrete fine silk like threads known as byssus which are used to anchor themselves to solid substrates. With relatively few exceptions the ... -
Bioelectrogenesis from Raw Algal Biomass Through Microbial Fuel Cells: Effect of Acetate as Co-substrate
( Springer , 2019 , Article)Algae are autotrophic organisms that are widespread in water bodies. Increased pollution in water bodies leads to eutrophication. However, algae growing in lakes undergoing eutrophication could be utilized towards the ... -
Carbonaceous and nitrogenous disinfection by-product formation from algal organic matter
( Elsevier Ltd , 2017 , Article)Seasonal algal blooms in drinking water sources release intracellular and extracellular algal organic matter (AOM) in significant concentrations into the water. This organic matter provides precursors for disinfection ... -
Effect of cultivation parameters and heat management on the algae species growth conditions and biomass production in a continuous feedstock photobioreactor
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)The sunshine heat flux is having an essential impact on the photobioreactor system temperature. However, optimal algae growth rates have gained if the algal growth media temperature located between 25 and 30 °C, for most ... -
Hydrothermal liquefaction of marine microalgae biomass using co-solvents
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of microalgae biomass is a promising conversion technology in which wet biomass is treated under high temperature (280–350 °C) and pressure (5–21 MPa), and the associated water in the wet ... -
Performance Of Chlorella Vulgaris, Neochloris Oleoabundans, and mixed indigenous microalgae for treatment of primary effluent, secondary effluent and centrate
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the growth rate and treatment efficiency of Chlorella vulgaris, Neochloris oleoabundans and mixed indigenous microalgae for the removal of organic carbon, nitrogen ... -
Potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae for carbon dioxide bio-fixation and advanced wastewater treatment
( AIChE , 2017 , Conference Paper)The potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a CO2 capturing technology and treatment process for wastewaters was evaluated at two temperatures ( 25 and 30 C) and different CO2 dosage ( 0%, 5% and 15%). During ... -
Study the efficiency of Ultrasonic Technology in Removal of Algae from Surface Waters
( Qatar University Young Scientists Center - Qatar University , 2024 , Conference Paper)The diversity of human activities and the expansion of agricultural work led to an increase in nutrient accumulation, which reached aquatic ecosystems, causing algal blooms. This highlighted the importance of the treatment ... -
The cost benefit of algal technology for combined CO2 mitigation and nutrient abatement
( Elsevier Ltd , 2017 , Article Review)The use of microalgae culture technology (MCT) for mitigating CO2 emissions from flue gases and nutrient discharges from wastewater whilst generating a biofuel product is considered with reference to the cost benefit ...
