Functionalization of reverse osmosis membrane with graphene oxide to reduce both membrane scaling and biofouling حسب Mohammad Y. Ashfaq (14152290)

"…Results indicated that the permeate flux was reduced by only 15% at the end of the scaling experiment as opposed to the bared RO membrane which faced up to 22% decline in flux. The results of scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, and X-ray diffraction confirmed that the bared RO membrane was extensively scaled by the CaSO4 precipitates. …"

Klotho overexpression protects human cortical neurons from β-amyloid induced neuronal toxicity حسب Mohammed R. Shaker (10316180)

"…Our data reveal that upregulation of <i>KLOTHO</i> significantly reduced β-amyloid-induced neuronal degeneration and apoptosis, as evidenced by decreased cleaved caspase-3 expression and preservation of axonal integrity. …"

Performance and analysis of kappa-carrageenan hydrogel for PFOA-contaminated soil remediation wastewater treatment حسب Alsaka, Lilyan

"…Due to pore size shrinkage, the AC-kC and V-kC hydrogels achieved the highest PFOA rejection at pH 4, whereas the water flux decreased. Increasing the PFOA concentration reduced water flux and increased PFOA rejection. …"

Secrecy Performance of a RIS-Assisted Wireless Network: A Comprehensive Analysis Under Outdated CSI حسب Tasneem Alshamaseen (22392382)

"…The obtained results demonstrate that the adopted system can achieve an acceptable SOP level even with 10% outdated CSI (i.e., <i>ρ</i>=0.9 ). This resilience indicates that the system can reduce channel estimation frequency to reconfigure the RIS, thus decreasing overall system overhead and complexity and improving energy efficiency. …"

Life cycle assessment and sustainability enhancement of closed-loop carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery: Field-scale evaluation in Qatar’s Dukhan Reservoir حسب Razan Sawaly (19170910)

"…By Year 19, internal energy offset declined to 45.0% due to reduced fuel gas availability, and in Year 21, the fully closed-loop operation required complete reliance on external electricity. …"

Characteristics of aerosols and planetary boundary layer dynamics during biomass burning season حسب Muhammad Zeeshaan Shahid (18131689)

"…The planetary boundary layer (PBL) height, measured with Ceilometer LIDAR, showed decreasing trend in height from October to December that support aerosol accumulation near the surface during the the month of November. …"
