Teaching "design-forcorrosion" to engineering undergraduates: A case study of novel Ni-B coatings for high wear and corrosive applications
(
IGI Global
, 2017 , Book chapter)
This chapter briefly describes the challenges and developments in the field of corrosion focusing on the subject of materials science. A brief introduction was provided on corrosion damage and the importance of its prevention. ...
Novel Ni based duplex coatings for anticorrosion applications
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Ni-B/Ni-P-CeO2 duplex coatings containing inner Ni-B layer were synthesized on mild steel substrate through the electrodeposition process. The structural, surface and electrochemical properties of the duplex coatings in ...
Optimal Design of Cogeneration Systems to Use Uncertain Flare Streams
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
An optimization approach is proposed for managing flares from multiple plants. The aim of the proposed approach is to utilize flared gas during an abnormal situation to produce combined heat and power while reducing the ...
Impact of temperature and storage time on the migration of antimony from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) containers into bottled water in Qatar
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
Prosperity in Qatar and the consequent stresses on water resources resulted in a sustainable increase in the bottled drinking water market. Reports on health concerns and possible migration of chemicals from the plastic ...
Instability in CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells due to elemental migration and chemical composition changes
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2017 , Article)
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites have rapidly grown as favorable materials for photovoltaic applications, but accomplishing long-term stability is still a major research problem. This work demonstrates a new insight ...
Design of Ionic Liquid as Carbon Capture Solvent for a Bioenergy System: Integration of Bioenergy and Carbon Capture Systems
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
Current atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration has exceeded the safe limit of 350 ppm. One potential technology to remove CO2 from the atmosphere is the integrated bioenergy production and carbon capture system. A ...
Mechanistic insights into the remediation of bromide ions from desalinated water using roasted date pits
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Bromide ions (Br−) are associated with toxic by-products that might be produced during the disinfection of drinking water. The removal of Br− from water using roasted date pits (RODPs) and activated carbon was investigated. ...
Solar thermochemical Dy2O3/DyO water splitting cycle for hydrogen production
(
Inderscience Publishers
, 2017 , Article)
The thermodynamic analyses of the dysprosium oxide-based water splitting (Dy-WS) cycle are reported in this paper. The first step of the Dy-WS cycle involves thermal reduction of Dy2O3, whereas water splitting reaction is ...
The potential use of solar photocatalytic oxidation for removal of emerging pharmaceuticals from effluent of wastewater treatment plant: A pilot plant study
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The treatment of effluent wastewater containing pharmaceutical by solar advanced oxidation processes were studied in a pilot plant. The removal efficiency of four groups of pharmaceuticals (antibiotics, estrogens, acidic, ...
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 ...
