Assessing Desalination Governance and the Promise of Technology in the Arabian Peninsula by Al-Saidi, Mohammad

“…Sustainable desalination should address environmental problems across the entire lifecycle of desalination plants, and embed desalination activities within a larger good governance view. This chapter maps out solutions and best practices relevant for the desalination industry using the case study of the Arabian Peninsula. …”

Theoretical insight into effect of cation–anion pairs on CO2 reduction on bismuth electrocatalysts by Sun Hee, Yoon

“…The adsorption energy (Eads) and work function (Wf) of the anions increases with decreasing anion size (i.e., Cl− > Br− > I−). On the other hand, the larger the cation size is, the higher is the Eads (i.e., Li+ < K+ < Cs+) but the lower is the Wf (i.e., Cs+ < K+ < Li+). …”

Enhancing oil removal from water using ferric oxide nanoparticles doped carbon nanotubes adsorbents by Fard, Ahmad Kayvani

“…The loading of Fe2O3 nanoparticles on the negative surface of CNT decreases the negative sign and magnitude of the zeta potential by overcoming the repulsive effects of the electrical double layers to allow the finely sized oil droplets to form larger droplets through coalescence. …”
