Enhancing student learning in chemical engineering design via role play and enquiry guided learning: A case study from Qatar
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Plant design is the capstone design course taken in the senior year of a chemical engineering students at Qatar University and is spread over two semesters (Plant Design I and Plant Design II). The course content, delivery ...
Moisture and temperature dependence of the dielectric properties of pharmaceutical powders
(2013 , Article)
The dielectric properties of pharmaceutical powder–(paracetamol, aspirin, lactose, maize starch, adipic acid) solvent (water) mixtures were measured at 2,450 MHz at a range of moisture contents (0–1.0 kg kg−1, dry basis) ...
Integrating ethics into the chemical engineering curriculum: The Qatar University experience
(2013 , Conference Paper)
Qatar is growing at an unprecedented rate due to the utilization of its vast gas reserves. The country's wealth stems from oil, gas and petrochemical industries. Engineers are in high demand in all specializations and Qatar ...
Viscous behavior of imidazolium-based ionic liquids
(2013 , Article)
The viscosity of four imidazolium-based ionic liquids is analyzed as a function of pressure and temperature. Experimental measurements were carried out using an electromagnetic moving piston viscometer in the 303-353 K and ...
