M. I. A. Abdel Maksoud,Ramy Amer Fahim,Ahmed Esmail Shalan,Ahmed Esmail Shalan,M. Abd Elkodous,M. Abd Elkodous,S. O. Olojede,Ahmed I. Osman,Charlie Farrell,Charlie Farrell,Ala’a H. Al-Muhtaseb,A. S. Awed,A. H. Ashour,David W. Rooney +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the performance of spinel ferrites, perovskite oxides, transition metals sulfides, carbon materials, and conducting polymers for supercapacitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical challenges in biohydrogen production processes from the organic feedstocks
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of bio-hydrogen production using organic waste materials through fermentation, biophotolysis, microbial electrolysis cell and gasification is discussed and analyzed from a technological perspective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of phthalates from aqueous solution by semiconductor photocatalysis: A review.
TL;DR: This review explores the use of semiconductor photocatalysis as an efficient and promising solution towards achieving removal and degradation of phthalate esters with a view towards pilot scale and industrial deployment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer-supported phosphoramidites: highly efficient and recyclable catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation of dimethylitaconate and dehydroamino acids and esters
Simon Doherty,Edward G. Robins,Ibolya Pál,Colin Newman,Christopher Hardacre,David W. Rooney,Damian A. Mooney +6 more
TL;DR: Several novel phosphoramidites have been prepared by reaction of the primary amines para-vinylaniline, ortho-anisidine, 2-methoxyphenyl(4-vinylbenzyl)amine, 8-aminoquinoline and 3vinyl-8-aminoline with (S)-1,1′-bi-2-naphthylchlorophosphite, in the presence of base as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the photocatalytic hydrogen production potential of titania doped with alumina derived from foil waste
Ahmed I. Osman,Ahmed I. Osman,Nathan Skillen,Peter K. J. Robertson,David W. Rooney,Kevin Morgan +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the multifunctional potential of a catalyst previously synthesized for thermal processes is explored by investigating its activity for photocatalytic production of H 2 from glycerol, a byproduct from the manufacture of bio-diesel.
