Modelling the asymmetric responses of price level to oil price changes in Qatar
Published 2019“…Moreover, we find that price responses to negative changes in oil price is greater than its response to positive changes. Given Qatar's economic features, a decrease in oil price could cause lower imports and production prices and consequently a substantial influence on domestic prices level. …”

Pilot-scale petroleum refinery wastewaters treatment systems: performance and microbial communities' analysis
Published 2020“…The reduction of the COD, BOD5, phenols, and the total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) reached 82.10%, 85.87%, 91.63%, and 81.11%, respectively at high hydraulic residence time (HRT = 10 days). Decreasing HRT to 5 and 2.5 days led to a decrease in the efficiency of the process and a decrease in biomass concentration was also observed (<1000 mg/l). …”

Superior photocatalytic activity of Cu doped NiWO4 for efficient degradation of benzene in air even under visible radiation
Published 2019“…The obtained experimental result indicated that photocatalytic performance of the prepared Cu-NiWO4 materials were greater than that of the pure NiWO4. This was because Cu effectively acted as novel dopant, which not only affected valence band (VB) top and conduction band (CB) bottom of NiWO4 but also formed a medium energy level between CB and VB of the NiWO4 to decrease its energy band gap and electron-hole recombination rate. …”
