Much progress about graphene has been made in the fields of physics, chemistry, material
science, and electronics. Graphene's properties are mainly dependent on its geometric …

Molecular simulations employing empirical force fields have provided valuable knowledge
about the ice growth process in the past decade. The development of novel computational …

After the kraft or soda pulping of lignocellulosic materials to produce pulp suitable for
papermaking, the spent pulping liquor typically has been recovered by multi-effect …

Due to stringent legislation, wastewater needs to be treated before dispersing in the
environment. Wastewater can be purified through the formation of less contaminated ice …

The metastable zone between the solubility curve and the crystallisation curve can be
divided into two regions, separated by the secondary nucleation threshold. At a …

Eutectic freeze crystallization (EFC) has been pronounced a promising separation technique
to recover ice and salt simultaneously in an energy-efficient manner. Alike other freeze …

We proved that ice crystallized from water molecules within as-synthesized graphene oxide
(GO) can be used as a spacer among individual GO sheets to form an expanded GO aerogel …

Given the high human demand for freshwater and its consequent scarcity, desalination
processing seems to be a key solution, given the vast amount of seawater on the planet …

Ni 2+ in excess of maximum recommended limits must be removed from wastewater prior to
discharge because of its persistent bio-accumulative and detrimental nature. Natural …

The presence of impurities in solution during crystallization can influence the crystallization
kinetics of the desired product. Consequently, this affects the product quality parameters …
