An Experimental and Kinetic Study of the Sorption of Carbon Dioxide onto Amine-Treated Oil Fly Ash
( Hindawi Publishing Corporation , 2016 , Article)A new CO2 adsorbent is produced from waste oil fly ash (OFA). Ammonium hydroxide solution is used to convert OFA to activated carbon. Then, the product is used for the adsorption of CO2 from a nitrogen/carbon dioxide ... -
Carbon Capture
( Elsevier Inc. , 2018 , Book chapter)CO2 is one of the main greenhouse gases that causes global warming, leading to a global detrimental impact on the environment, economy, and society as a whole. Carbon capture is regarded as an important and effective ... -
Enhanced electrochemical conversion of CO2 into formic acid using PbSO4/AtSn electrode: Catalyst synthesis and process optimization
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Electrochemical carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction is among the most promising and effective methods for producing valuable fuels while simultaneously addressing global warming. Numerous metal-based materials showed promising ... -
Gas capture processes
( MDPI AG , 2020 , Other)The increasing trends in gas emissions have had direct adverse impacts on human health and ecological habitats in the world. A variety of technologies have been deployed to mitigate the release of such gases, including ... -
Investigating algal CO2 capture through screening of Qatari desert microalgae & cyanobacteria strains
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Conference Paper)CO2 fixation by phototrophic microalgae has been addressed as a possible global carbon emissions reducer, whilst simultaneously producing useful products. Especially in Qatar, the prospect of using microalgae for CO2 ... -
Liquid exfoliated MoS2 sheet coupled with conductive polyaniline for gas sensor
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)Polyaniline (PANI)/MoS2 composites with porous microspheres were prepared by a hydrothermal and in situ polymerization method. The structural, optical, and morphological properties were characterized by X-ray powder ... -
Potential of novel desert microalgae and cyanobacteria for commercial applications and CO2 sequestration

Screening of Qatari Microalgae and Cyanobacteria for Application in CO2 Utilization
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2018 , Conference Paper)CO2 fixation by phototrophic microalgae and cyanobacteria is seen as a possible global carbon emissions reducer, which could also be applied to produce useful products. In Qatar, the prospect of using microalgae is very ... -
Synthesis and characterization of Cu/ZnO catalyst on carbon nanotubes and Al2O3 supports
( Trans Tech Publications Ltd , 2018 , Conference Paper)CO2 conversion into valuable chemicals is an attractive option to deal with the increasing CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. In this study, Cu/ZnO catalyst was synthesized on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and ... -
Trends in microalgal-based systems as a promising concept for emerging contaminants and mineral salt recovery from municipal wastewater
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article Review)In the context of climate change leading to water scarcity for many people in the world, the treatment of municipal wastewater becomes a necessity. However, the reuse of this water requires secondary and tertiary treatment ... -
Uncovering responses of zooplankton community to CO2 acidification in Qatar coastal waters
( Hamad Bin Khalifa University Press , 2016 , Conference Paper)The combustion of fossil fuels is pushing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) to unprecedented levels. This rapid increase in atmospheric CO2 is causing global changes, with noticeable increases in temperature, ... -
Usefulness of In-Situ Synchrotron Study on Scale Formation during CO2 Corrosion of Mild Steel: A Review
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Conference Paper)Despite the availability of the detailed knowledge about the chemical, electrochemical and transport processes associated with the formation of ferrous carbonate during CO2- corrosion of mild steel, information available ...
