Exploring carbon dioxide sequestration in desalination reject brine via NaOH reaction: A kinetics study by Nafis Mahmud (14150004)

“…The effect of various operating parameters, such as the temperature, CO₂ concentration, NaOH dosage, brine salinity, CO₂ flowrates and inert particles volume percent were investigated by varying them within the range of 15–55 °C, 3–20 %, 6–16 g/L, 5–72 g/L, 1–5 L/min and 0–20%, respectively. The experimental data showed that the overall rate of CO₂ conversion is equal to the sum of the rates observed for Ca2+ and Mg²+ carbonation reactions and increases proportionally with the increase in CO₂ concentration. …”

Blood flow restriction‐enhanced platelet‐rich plasma: A pilot randomised controlled trial protocol by Muhammad Ayyan (16328986)

“…PRP platelet and leucocyte count, IGF‐1 and IL‐6 concentration measurements (via flow cytometry, chemiluminescence testing and immunochromatography, respectively) will be conducted before exercise and 10, 20 and 30 min after the intervention.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The expected outcome is that the standard protocol of low‐load bilateral knee extensions under BFR will increase the platelet and leucocyte count, IGF‐1 and IL‐6 in the PRP preparation.…”
