Earth-abundant oxygen evolution catalysts coupled onto ZnO nanowire arrays for efficient photoelectrochemical water cleavage
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2014 , Article)
ZnO has long been considered as a model UV-driven photoanode for photoelectrochemical water splitting, but its performance has been limited by fast charge-carrier recombination, extremely poor stability in aqueous solution, ...
Microbial Desalination Cell: A Sustainable Approach For Brackish Water Desalination And Wastewater Treatment With Bioelectricity Generation
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The shortage of the fresh water has become a more and more serious issue because of the rapid increase in human population and resource consumption. Although water is an abundant natural resource available in the earth, ...
Promising And Anomalous Structural And Electrochemical Properties Of Polyanionic Phosphates In Sodium Ion Batteries
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This work presents a recent progress on the polyanionic phosphate family that functions as cathode materials in sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Firstly, this study will cover vanadium-containing frameworks that show very ...
Nanoporous Polymeric Materials For Co2 Capture And Separation
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Control of carbon dioxide emissions without significant penalties requires effective CO2 scrubbing from point sources, such as fossil fuel burning power plants, cement factories and steel making. Capturing process is the ...
A critical review of CO2 photoconversion: Catalysts and reactors
(2014 , Article)
Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to either a renewable fuel or valuable chemicals, using solar energy has attracted more and more attention, due to the great potential to provide an alternative clean fuel and solve the ...
Synthesis Of Transition Metal Nanoparticles Using Combustion Based Techniques
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Solution combustion synthesis (SCS) is a widely used technique for synthesizing variety of high purity oxide nanoparticles. Two basic modes for combustion synthesis are the self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) ...
Ni-P-TiO2 Composite coatings on copper produced by sol-enhanced electroplating
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2014 , Article)
Ni-P-TiO2 composite coatings were prepared on copper substrate by TiO2 sol-enhanced electroplating. A systematic study of Ni-P-X coatings with different sol concentrations (TiO2 concentration X from 0 to 50 mL/L) has been ...
Synthesis and properties of electrodeposited Ni-B-Zn ternary alloy coatings
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2014 , Article)
Ni-B coatings have decent properties like high hardness, wear resistance and decent anti-corrosion properties which make them suitable for automotive, aerospace, petrochemical, textile and electronics industries. Despite ...
Applications of Matlab optimization capabilities in the design of N-continuous stirred tank bioreactors connected in series
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The optimal design (variable volume) of continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR's), in series, performing biological conversion of organic materials, was derived. The optimal design was based on the minimum overall reactor ...
Adsorption energy and pore-size distributions of activated carbons calculated using Hill's model
(
Multi-Science Publishing Co. Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
An integral equation derived using a statistical physics treatment by considering the adsorption energy distribution (AED) was used to model the adsorption of ethylene and ethane on resorcinol-formaldehyde-based activated ...
