Mathematical modeling based evaluation and simulation of boron removal in bioelectrochemical systems
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
Boron removal is an arising issue in desalination plants due to boron's toxicity. As an emerging treatment concept, bioelectrochemical systems (BES) can achieve potentially cost-effective boron removal by taking advantage ...
Innovative method of metal coating of microcapsules containing phase change materials
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Microencapsulation of phase change materials (PCMs) is needed to prevent PCM leaking during melting. However, the low thermal conductivity of the microcapsules shell limits their applications. To enhance thermal conductivity ...
Mathematical modeling assisted investigation of forward osmosis as pretreatment for microbial desalination cells to achieve continuous water desalination and wastewater treatment
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Coupling forward osmosis (FO) with microbial desalination cells (MDCs) can lead to some synergistic benefits, i.e. simultaneous water recovery, desalination and removal of COD (chemical oxygen demand). Herein, an FO-MDC ...
Comparative Study of Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Modelling of Water-Gas Shift Reaction with Macro-or Micro-kinetics
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents critical studies on water-gas shift reaction (WGSR) kinetic models as well as the modelling approaches of the reactor, in which the reaction is conducted - the packed-bed tubular reactor (PBTR). There ...
Investigation of Weather Impacts on Pedestrian Volumes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study investigates the impacts of temporal and weather characteristics on pedestrian volumes in a hot climate condition. A major neighborhood located in an urban area in Doha, Qatar was chosen as a case study site. ...
Reducing railway-induced ground-borne vibration by using open trenches and soft-filled barriers
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A trench can act as a barrier to ground vibration and is a potential mitigation measure for low frequency vibration induced by surface railways. However, to be effective at very low frequencies the depth required becomes ...
Diaphragm shear strength and stiffness of aluminum roof panel assemblies
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A diaphragm is an assembly of planar structural elements interconnected to each other to provide in-plane bracing system and transmit in-plane forces. The diaphragm geometry, supporting frame, type of the panel profiles, ...
Assessment of the taxi service in Doha
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This research focuses on passengers' satisfaction of the taxi service in Doha, Qatar. Qatar is a rich developing country where taxis are widely considered as a public transportation service due to the limited use of the ...
Influence of thermal annealing on a capacitive humidity sensor based on newly synthesized macroporous PBObzT2
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
In this work, we report on the application of a newly synthesized macroporous polythiophene derivative, benzo[b]thiophene end-capped dioctyloxy-benzene(PBObzT2), in the fabrication of a capacitive humidity sensor. The ...
Investigation of solar PV performance under Doha weather using a customized measurement and monitoring system
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A key factor in future eco-friendly and reliable energy systems for network stability is energy prediction of renewable resources. However, the climate-induced performance degradation represents a major drawback to solar ...
