The time-dependent operation of methanol, ammonia, and urea production units embedded in a steel mill technical environment is analyzed with dynamic simulation models. From different process concepts and gas availability scenarios a set of simulation cases is defined with blast furnace ... Read More
Microreactors have been used for renewable fuel production due to benefits such as, enhanced mass transfer, improved heat transfer and larger surface-area-to-volume ratios. The steam reforming of methanol over a CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 based catalyst (BASF F3-01) is investigated using 2-D packed ... Read More
Accumulation of plastic solid waste is a large share of municipal solid waste (MSW). Thermochemical treatment processes are a vital component of a sustainable integrated MSW management since they reduce the volume of the waste significantly. In conjunction with our efforts to develop ... Read More

High temperature and pressure alkaline electrolysis is an innovative and promising technology for water electrolysis for hydrogen production. Introducing simulation at early stage development allows to study the effect of the microstructure parameters on performance and guide the ... Read More
In this numerical investigation, the effective thermal conductivities (ETC) of periodic complex structures are evaluated. These structures are to be used as packing in Heat-Integrated Distillation Columns (HIDiC). Only high-porosity (>85%) complex structures are considered for ... Read More
The presence of hexavalent chromium in dangerous concentrations in mine wastewater poses a hazard to the environment and emphasizes the development of technology in wastewater treatment is important. This study focused on the simulation of a fixed-bed adsorption column of soil and water ... Read More
Flexible electronic devices are very sensitive against the ingress of oxygen and water vapor from the atmosphere and therefore must be protected by encapsulation with high barrier films. Typically these films contain at least two or three inorganic barrier layers separated by polymeric ... Read More
The rapidly increasing world population will dramatically expand the future global freshwater requirements, now making lots of researchers realize the fundamental importance of developing effective desalination technologies. Hence, the emerging capacitive deionization (CDI) desalination ... Read More
The transition to sustainable production includes the reduction of fossil material usage. Vegetable oil can be used as a reagent to form polyurethane by epoxidation through three major reaction steps, epoxidation, carbonation, and aminolysis. Many attempts have been made to model these ... Read More
