A review of the absorption and desorption processes of carbon dioxide in water systems

Elhajj, J.; Al-Hindi, M.; Azizi, F. (Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research, 2014)

This article is a comprehensive review of the literature dealing with the transfer of carbon dioxide to water where no chemical reactions are taking place. It reviews the studies related to the absorption and desorption ...
Experimental design and batch experiments for optimization of Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions by hydrous cerium oxide nanoparticles

Albadarin, A.B.; Yang, Z.; Mangwandi, C.; Glocheux, Y.; Walker, G.; Ahmad, M.N.M. (Institution of Chemical Engineers; RUGBY, 2014)

Hydrous cerium oxide (HCO) was synthesized by intercalation of solutions of cerium(III) nitrate and sodium hydroxide and evaluated as an adsorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solutions. Simple batch ...
Hydrodynamics of liquid flow through screens and screen-type static mixers

Azizi, F.; Al Taweel, A.M. (Chemical Engineering Communications, 2011)

An approach for predicting the spatial variation of the energy dissipation rate downstream of a screen is proposed in this article. It is based on extending the use of the homogeneous and isotropic turbulence decay equation ...
Hydrolysis characteristics and kinetics of waste hay biomass as a potential energy crop for fermentable sugars production using autoclave parr reactor system

Orozco, A.M.; Al-Muhtaseb, A.H.; Rooney, D.; Walker, G.M.; Ahmad, M.N.M. (Industrial Crops and Products, 2013)

The use of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste crops has received considerable attention as a sustainable feedstock that can replace fossil fuels for the production of renewable energy. Therefore, municipal ...
Inter-phase mass transfer in turbulent liquid-liquid dispersions: A comparative analysis of models

Azizi, F.; Al Taweel, A.M. (Chemical Engineering Journal, 2012)

A comparative evaluation of eight models used to predict the dispersed phase mass transfer coefficient was undertaken using recent drop size and mass transfer data obtained under well known and controlled hydrodynamic ...
Modelling droplet breakage in continuous emulsification using static mixers in the framework of entire spectrum of turbulent energy

Azizi, Fouad (2021)

Droplets breakage during continuous emulsification in static mixers is investigated in this work. It is clearly shown that for viscous continuous phases, droplet breakage occurs mostly in the dissipation range of isotropic ...
Novel comparison of kinetic models for the adsorption-coupled reduction of Cr(VI) using untreated date pit biomaterial

Albadarin, A.B.; Glocheux, Y.; Ahmad, M.N.M.; Walker, G.M.; Mangwandi, C. (Elsevier; Amsterdam, 2014)

Biosorption of Cr(VI) onto date pit biomass has been investigated via kinetic studies as functions of initial Cr(VI) concentration, solution temperature and date pit particle size. Kinetic experiments indicated that chromate ...
Preparation of controlled porosity resorcinol formaldehyde xerogels for adsorption applications

Oyedoh, E.A.; Albadarin, A.B.; Walker, G.M.; Mirzaeian, M.; Ahmad, M.N.M. (2013)

The synthesis of resorcinol formaldehyde xerogels was investigated by controlling its porosity for potential use as adsorbents for heavy metals removal from industrial wastewater. Resorcinol formaldehyde carbon xerogels ...
Recent updates on drug abuse analyzed by neuroproteomics studies: Cocaine, Methamphetamine and MDMA

Kobeissy, F.; Mouhieddine, T.H.; Nokkari, A.; Itani, M.; Mouhieddine, M.; Zhang, Z.; Zhu, R.; Gold, M.S.; Wang, K.K.; Mechref, Y. (2014)

Currently, drug abuse and addiction represent a global public health concern with about 13.6 million people using illicit drugs in the USA alone. Substance abuse intervenes in normal brain functioning, causing alterations ...
Static mixers: Effective means for intensifying mass transfer limited reactions

Al Taweel, A.M.; Azizi, F.; Sirijeerachai, G. (Chemical Engineering and Processing, 2013)

The potential of using screen-type static mixers to intensify mass transfer limited multiphase-reactions was investigated using a case of diesel desulfurization. Two reactor designs were assessed at different superficial ...
Thymoquinone nanoparticle formulation and in vitro efficacy

Fakhoury, I.; Saad, W.; Gali-Muhtasib, H.; Schneider-Stock, R. (Nano Science and Technology Institute, 2014)

Thymoquinone (TQ) is a natural product with promising anticancer activity, but its development is hindered by its limited bioavailability. In this project, a nanoparticle formulation of TQ (TQ-NP) was formulated into ...
