Aluminum nitride (AlN) reinforced electrodeposited Ni-B nanocomposite coatings by Radwan, A. Bahgat

“…The potentiodynamic analysis exhibited that the protection efficiency (PE%) of Ni–B coating is ~20%, which increased to ~53% and ~73% by addition of AlN nanoparticles of 0.6 and 1.2 g L−1, respectively. The corrosion resistance could be credited to the presence of inactive and insulating AlN nanoparticles that filled the existing defects in Ni–B matrix and subsequently decreased the active area exposed to the corrosive electrolyte (3.5 wt.% NaCl).…”

Electrocoagulation treatment of reject brine effluent from Solvay process by Osman M.A.

“…Three-experiment design levels and response surface methodologies were used to model the system. A second-order polynomial model was developed and used to predict the optimum conditions, which were found to be at a 0.2 A/cm2 current density, 36.8°C temperature, and initial Cl− concentration of 7.4 × 103mg/L. …”

Optimization of the Biotreatment of GTL Process Water Using Pseudomonas aeruginosa Immobilized in PVA Hydrogel by Ahmed, Somaya A.

“…The optimum operating conditions were used to carry out continuous biodegradation, and the results indicated that the COD reduction increased from 60% to 62% with an increase in the air flow rate from 2 to 3.3 La/Lr.min. However, by increasing the liquid flow rate from 2.1 to 4.2 mL/min and back to 2.1 mL/min, the COD reduction decreased from 66% to 39%. …”

Occurrence and removal characteristics of phthalate esters from bottled drinking water using silver modified roasted date pits by Alhaddad F.A.

“…Three adsorbents, namely roasted date pits (RODP), silver-modified roasted date pits (S-RODP), and activated carbon (AC) were used to investigate their adsorption characterizations in removing dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP), di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), and di-n-octyl phthalate (DNOP) from the collected bottle water samples. …”

Enhancing the electrocoagulation process for harvesting marine microalgae (Tetraselmis sp.) using interdigitated electrodes by A. Khatib, Wardan

“…In this study, 10 min electrolysis time was found to be sufficient to harvest 82.4% microalgae with 1 cm electrode distance and 50 mA/cm2 current density. Furthermore, decreasing the electrode distance to 0.5 cm increased the algal harvesting efficiency to 96.18%. …”

Assessment of treatment burden and its impact on quality of life in dialysis-dependent and pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients by Al-mansouri, A.

“…Similarly, the HD patients demonstrated significantly lower HR-QOL compared to the pre-dialysis patients [median (IQR) score of 2140 (1100) vs. 2930 (995), respectively; p < 0.001). There was a strong negative correlation between TBQ score and KDQOL-36™ score [rs (251) = −0.616, p < 0.001], signifying that HR-QOL decreases as treatment burden increases. …”
