Review on the Use of Ionic Liquids (ILs) as Alternative Fluids for CO2 Capture and Natural Gas Sweetening
(
American Chemical Society
, 2010 , Article)
The capture of CO2 from flue gases derived from fossil-fueled power plants and the absorption of CO2/H2S for natural gas sweetening purposes are two relevant industrial problems closely related to very important environmental, ...
Second law analysis of compressible flow through a diffuser subjected to constant wall temperature
(
Inderscience
, 2010 , Article)
This study presents the investigation of entropy generation in compressible turbulent flow of air through a diffuser. Constant temperature boundary condition is applied at the wall. Two-dimensional solution of velocity and ...
Investigation of the use of TiO2 doped with metal ions in water disinfection
(
IWA Publishing
, 2010 , Article)
This research was conducted to improve titanium dioxide by transition metal doping using cooper. Sol gel method was used to prepare metal doped TiO 2. Titanium isopropoxide and commercial TiO2 P25 were employed as catalyst ...
The application of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon in removing humic substances from water and wastewater: Column studies
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2010 , Article)
The efficiency of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon for the removal of humic substance (HS) from water and wastewater was demonstrated in batch studies. This paper investigated ...
Bioenergy II: Bio-ethanol from municipal solid waste (MSW): The role of biomass properties and structures during the ethanol conversion process
(
Berkeley Electronic Press
, 2010 , Article)
The emerging biofuel industry demands large amount of biomass feedstock. Although commercial ethanol has been produced from primary biomass sources such as corns, the global food crisis caused by the use of primary biomass ...
Kinetics of humics removal from water and wastewater using granular activated carbon, iron-coated activated alumina, and beta ferric oxihydroxide
(2010 , Article)
Application of kinetic models to represent the removal of humic substances from water and wastewater was investigated. An adsorbate-adsorbent system was represented by humic substances and three adsorbents, namely granular ...

Adsorption and desorption equilibria of nitrogen, methane, ethane, and ethylene on date-pit activated carbon
(
American Chemical Society
, 2010 , Article)
Date pits were used to produce a highly porous activated carbon. The resulting date-pit activated carbon was used in a volumetric adsorption apparatus to measure the vapor-phase adsorption and desorption of nitrogen, ...
Second law analysis of compressible flow through a diffuser subjected to constant heat flux at wall
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2010 , Article)
Entropy generation is equivalent to destruction of available work (exergy). The useful energy is destroyed due to the intrinsic irreversibility associated within thermodynamic systems. Exergy analysis can be used as an ...
Force Transmission Error Analysis for a High-Pressure Single-Sinker Magnetic Suspension Densimeter
(
Springer Science and Business Media
, 2010 , Article)
The magnetic suspension densimeter (MSD) is a sophisticated, stateof-
the-art device that provides extremely accurate results for density measurements.
The MSD uses a magnetic technique to couple a mass inside a measurement ...
