Brackish water desalination with a novel polymer nanocomposite membrane
(2019-04-05)
The rapid growth of the global population, the industrialization and environmental problems caused by global warming have made it necessary to implement advanced water purification techniques capable of fulfilling the ...
Synthesis and characterization of a novel palladium nanostructured ensemble supported on anodized alumina substrates for hydrogen sensing applications
(2015)
Hydrogen is a versatile molecule used in many industrial processes. Hydrogen is flammable at concentrations between 4% to 75% v/v at atmospheric pressure with a tendency to leak. There are a variety of hydrogen sensors, ...
Magnetorheology in rotating magnetic fields
(2007)
We studied the flow of ferrofluid induced by rotating magnetic fileds. This flow was observed for first time in fi96F by Moskowitz and Rosensweig [App1. Ph4s. Gett., 10, pag. 3Ofi (fi96F)] and since then researchers has ...
Functionalization and characterization of Sulfonated Poly (Styrene-Isobutylene-Styrene) membranes for fuel cells and specialty separation applications
(2014)
In this study, the transport properties of poly(styrene-isobutylene-styrene) (SIBS) block copolymer were determined as a function of sulfonation level (0-94.9 %), counter ion substitution (Ba+2, Ca+2, Mg+2, Mn+2, Cu+2, ...
Testing of centrifugal filter devices as a tool to quantify protein-nanoparticle interactions using UV/Vis measurements
(2012)
Centrifugal Filter Devices (CFD) has been tested for the quantification of protein adsorption onto the surface of magnetic nanoparticles coated with biocompatible polymers. Using a phosphate buffered saline wash protocol, ...
Effects of environmental parameters on the chemical signature of landmines
(2005)
The presence of buried landmines is an environmental problem in many parts of the
world; strategies to detect and remove landmines are being developed; one of these
strategies is the developing of chemical based sensors. ...
Modeling of growth kinetics of wet granulation in a high shear mixer by means of image processing and analysis
(2006)
Wet granulation is one of the most important operations where fine particles are
agglomerated into larger granules by adding a binder. The process is used in many chemical
industries including pharmaceutical, mineral ...
Catalytic conversion of CO2 to hydrocarbons
(2014)
The production of methanol and dimethyl ether via CO2 hydrogenation was studied using Pd catalysts supported on α-Ga2O3, α-β-Ga2O3 and β-Ga2O3 polymorphs. The catalytic activity improves with the increase in the content ...
Molecular simulation studies for the templated synthesis of ultrathin metal nanowires in zeolites
(2012)
In the present work geometric optimizations, Metropolis Monte Carlo, and molecular dynamics simulations were done to study the feasibility of synthesizing Ni and Pt nanowires inside the pores of one dimensional zeolite ...
DFT study on the effect of aluminum atom distribution in zn-exchanged mfi zeolites for methane c-h bond activation
(2018)
The direct conversion of methane to useful chemicals is economically attractive owing to the vast availability of natural gas resources. Nevertheless, a fundamental limitation is the chemical inertness and stability of the ...
