Analytical pyrolysis of polyethyleneimines (2022)
Journal Article

Poly(ethylene imine) is a family of polymers with a high content of amine groups employed in various applications and widely investigated as CO2 adsorbents in carbon capture and sequestration. In this study, five branched polyethylenimines (PEIs) of... Read More about Analytical pyrolysis of polyethyleneimines.

Combining molecular simulation and experiment to understand the effect of moisture on methane adsorption in kerogens (2022)
Journal Article

There is a limited understanding of the critical impact moisture has on shale gas resource estimation by affecting gas adsorption and pore structure. Laboratory experiments on dry and 95% relative humidity (R.H.) isolated kerogens are combined with G...

A comprehensive comparative study on methylene blue removal from aqueous solution using biochars produced from rapeseed, whitewood, and seaweed via different thermal conversion technologies (2022)
Journal Article

This paper presents, for the first time, a comprehensive comparative analysis of the potential of using biochars from three distinctly different UK-sourced biomass feedstocks, produced via three different thermal processing techniques, to adsorb meth...

Investigating the role of solvent type and microwave selective heating on the extraction of phenolic compounds from cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) pod husk (2022)
Journal Article

Cacao pod husk (CPH) is a primary waste in the cacao industry that contains favourable natural antioxidants based on phenolic compounds. This study reported an investigation of the effect of extraction parameters to maximise the bioactive yields of C...

Simultaneous conventional and microwave heating for the synthesis of adsorbents for CO2 capture: Comparative study to pristine technologies (2022)
Journal Article

Microwave has become an attractive technology in the valorisation of renewable biomass and in the mitigation of challenges of climate change. In this work, the synergic effects of coupling microwave and mild conventional heating conditions has been i...

The effect of oil extraction on porosity and methane adsorption for dry and moisture-equilibrated shales (2022)
Journal Article

The porosity and methane adsorption capacity of shale used to estimate gas in place (GIP) are affected both by moisture and oil residing in the pore structure, as well as oil naturally present from maturation, which can include contaminant drilling m...
