Journal ArticleDOI
Produced water characteristics, treatment and reuse: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight characteristics of produced water in detail and physical, chemical, and biological techniques used for its treatment, and reuse of produced waters for different purposes has been discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation, differentiation and biodiversity of ureolytic bacteria of Qatari soil and their potential in microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) for soil stabilization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the occurrence and diversity of ureolytic bacteria in Qatari soils, specifically to study their acquired potential to adapt to harsh conditions exhibiting urea activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigating the effect of temperature on calcium sulfate scaling of reverse osmosis membranes using FTIR, SEM-EDX and multivariate analysis.
TL;DR: It was found that the increase in temperature enhanced the membrane scaling which was evident by the severe flux decline over time leading to increase in mass of crystals precipitated (Mt) and thickness of the scale layer and there was strong positive correlation between Mt and the temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functionalization of reverse osmosis membrane with graphene oxide and polyacrylic acid to control biofouling and mineral scaling
TL;DR: The polymer-modified GO coated RO membranes were able to diminish both gypsum scaling and biofilm formation demonstrating their potential to control different types of membrane fouling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the effect of antiscalants on membrane biofouling using FTIR and multivariate analysis.
TL;DR: By combining the techniques of principle component analysis (PCA) and FTIR, it was demonstrated that the biofouling was more intense and composed of proteins, polysaccharides and lipids, when polymer antiscalant was used.
