Corrosion Evaluation of 316L Stainless Steel Exposed to CNT-Water Nanofluid
Published 2019“…Adsorption isotherm for CNTs adsorption on the surface of the metal and some thermodynamic properties of adsorption were found to help in proposing a mechanism for CNTs corrosion inhibition. It was observed that the SS tested in CNTs nanofluids presented low corrosion rates, which were comparable to those for tap water and lower than those for 3.5 wt.% NaCl solutions. …”

Enhancing the production of biogas through anaerobic co-digestion of agricultural waste and chemical pre-treatments
Published 2020“…The results revealed that the highest cumulative methane production (CMP) of 297.99 NL/kgVS can be generated by co-digestion of ASWs and CD at a ratio of 60:40. Further improvement was achieved via alkalinity treatment with 1.0 g of NaHCO<sub>3</sub>/gVS leading to decrease in lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose contents of feedstock by 3.5%, 10.5% and 15.9%, respectively, converting them to soluble fractions and improving the CMP by 11.2–29.7% based on substrate quality. …”
