Fall 2009
In this study, we describe the use of different silica materials to separate vanadium compounds from Asphaltenes. We used high performance flash chromatography separation method to separate asphaltenes at different solvent strengths on sea sand. The separation conditions were optimized for flow...

Development of a hybrid wheat straw adsorption and microfiltration system for oily wastewater treatment
DownloadFall 2020
Effective, economical, and sustainable treatment technologies are highly desirable for treating oily wastewater generated from various industries as well as municipal and commercial establishments. The performance of traditional polymeric membranes is largely constrained by their high fouling...

Development of dynamic column breakthrough for multicomponent adsorption equilibrium and diffusion
DownloadFall 2022
Pressure and temperature swing adsorption processes are increasingly being designed and optimized computationally. The reliability of these predictions are highly dependent on the quality of the experimental equilibrium and kinetic data used in these simulations. Consistent experimental...

Effect of adsorbate’s polarity, steric hindrance, aromaticity, and boiling point on competitive adsorption in a multi-staged countercurrent fluidized bed reactor using activated carbon and zeolite
DownloadFall 2022
Understanding the multi-component adsorption of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is of essential importance for real-world engineering applications. Various properties of VOCs can affect their competitive adsorption when there is a mixture of these compounds in the process stream. This thesis...
