In this study, a new silica gel based adsorbent was fabricated and its ability in separation and quantification of alkanes mixture was investigated. Silica gel (SiO2) is a polar absorbent which is mainly used to separate polar compounds. Also, the carbon materials such as activated carbon and recently carbon nanotube (CNTs), have been widely used for separation of nonpolar materials. Carbon nan...

In this work, carbon dioxide (CO2) loading capacity of methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) solution promoted by potassium lysinate (KLys) was experimentally measured using a gas absorption setup at different concentrations and temperatures. The CO2 removal efficiency the MDEA + KLys investigated for CO2/N2 mixture computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations in hollow fiber membrane contactor (HFMC). ...

Porous SiC nanowire (SiCNW) ceramics have great potentials for engineering applications. We herein report the fabrication of 3D SiCNW scaffolds with tuneable microstructures, densities, and therefore properties, by regulating solid loading content in reticulated melamine foam (MF) template finalizing a modified carbothermal reaction. first demonstrate resulting samples exhibiting high strength ...

Disposable absorbent products are widely used in inpatient care settings and in the community to manage adult urinary and fecal incontinence, but few product standards exist to help guide their production or optimal use. Increasing costs and reduced revenues have caused a number of states to evaluate absorbent product use among persons who receive care at home with the assistance of the Medicai...
