Thin Film Composite (TFC) membrane technology has been applied in the removal of various pollutants from wastewater. TFC membranes have small pore sizes which enable the rejection of multivalent ions such as those found in Acid Mine Drainage (AMD). Also, nanoparticles with desir…

The deactivation of 4A zeolite molecular sieves under severe hydrothermal conditions is studied. Accelerated deactivation runs are performed on Uetikon and TOSOH 4A zeolite pellets, and the results are interpreted considering their equilibrium and kinetic data. A mathematical mo…

Currently, the humanity is encountering two major crises: energy deficiency and global warming. In order to resolve these crises, we should consider maximizing energy efficiency and minimizing its usage. Furthermore, we should develop alternative energy sources (e.g. wind, solar…
