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. …”

Effect of sintering additives on the properties of alumina toughened zirconia (ATZ) by M. K. G. Abbas (18021646)

“…Green bodies were sintered at 1250°C, 1350°C, and 1500°C using a holding time of 5 min., with a heating rate of 30°C /min. In general, all ATZ samples exhibited a similar trend, as the results showed that the relative density and mechanical properties increased with increasing sintering temperature regardless of the addition of dopants. …”

Additive manufacturing for vernacular architecture using local earthen soil and bio-waste materials by Arslan Yousaf (18021805)

“…Rheological characterization showed that increasing fiber content improved shear strength from 18 to 40 kPa, plastic viscosity from 25 to 38 Pa·s, and open time from 70 to 150 min. …”

T-cell-derived interleukin-17 regulates the level and stability of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA through restricted activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade by Faour, Wissam
