The viability of human life depends heavily on the accessibility of clean water, not only for personal use but also to support various industrial, agricultural, and industrialrelated activities. Composite membranes were prepared using polyethersulfone (PES) with zeolite and clay. The membranes were fully characterized. Membrane performances were tested using sodium sulfide with a concentration of 0.365 g/l and ammonium chloride with a concentration of 0.148 g/l to study the effect of prepared composite membranes on the treatment of sour water. The membrane's mechanical properties were tested and M3 has the greatest tensile strength of 64 MPa with an elongation of …

The kinetics of heterogeneous catalyzed trans-esterification between castor oil and methanol was studied and modeled. Kinetic data was obtained from a perfectly mixed slurry batch reactor. The modeling was conducted via the modified-hattori mechanism to determine the exact rate controlling step for the reaction. A total of five rate expressions were formed, which were as a result of; methanol adsorption, Triglyceride adsorption, Formation of the complex, Surface reaction and Glycerol desorption. Evaluation of best fitting model and parameter estimation was done using the nealder simplex least square optimization algorithm with the aid MATLAB software. The result from the regression analysis …

The research describes the Gaussian plume model used to estimate the concentration of pollutants emitted from power plants and dispersed in the atmosphere. The object of the research is to compare the air quality between areas which is near to source station and away from the source station. The research estimates the concentrations of pollutants released from six electric power stations in Kuwait using the Gaussian plume model. A power plant with a stack height of 100 m, stack diameter of 2 m, and an emission rate of 1 kg/s for each station is considered. The Pasquill-Gifford stability categories are …
