A theoretical study of gas adsorption on calcite for CO2 enhanced natural gas recovery
( Elsevier B.V. , 2020 , Article)The adsorption of gas molecules (CO2, CH4, H2O, H2S and N2) on calcite (104) has been studied by means of Density Functional Theory for molecular characterization of Enhanced Gas Recovery (EGR) CO2 injection. Results show ... -
Ab-Initio Molecular Dynamics investigation of gas adsorption on α-quartz (001) for CO2 enhanced natural gas recovery
( Elsevier B.V. , 2021 , Article)In this work, the interaction of methane and carbon dioxide on α-quartz with surface 001, with a siloxane termination (dense) surface was investigated by means of Ab-Initio Molecular Dynamics. Different temperatures were ... -
Delineating the plastic waste status in the State of Qatar: Potential opportunities, recovery and recycling routes.
( Elsevier , 2019 , Article)The Qatar's national vision (QNV2030) underlines an unequivocal commitment to maintaining harmony between the three inter-dependent pillars of sustainable development: economic growth, social development and environmental ... -
Impact of clays on CO2 adsorption and enhanced gas recovery in sandstone reservoirs
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Carbon dioxide enhanced gas recovery (EGR) is a promising technique to sequester CO2 and boost natural gas recovery from conventional depleted and unconventional tight gas reservoirs. Clay minerals are usually present in ... -
Ion-imprinted membranes for lithium recovery: A review
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This review critically examines the effectiveness of ion-imprinted membranes (IIMs) in selectively recovering lithium (Li) from challenging sources such as seawater and brine. These membranes feature customized binding ... -
Overproduction of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by the extremely halophilic archaeon Haloarcula sp. CEJ40-10 using starchy substrate
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2023 , Article)Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), green alternatives to petroleum-derived plastics, possess desired features that make them preferred for various applications. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), one of the most known representative ... -
An overview of the plastic waste and recycling status in Qatar
(2019 , Conference Paper)It has been estimated that the average Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) generation rate per capita in the Gulf Co-operation countries (GCC) is approx. 1.5 kg/person/d, with Qatar reaching almost 1.4 kg/person/d, as it was ...
