Supercritical drying of gels is considered as the most important step of aerogel production
since it enables preservation of the three-dimensional pore structure which lead to unique …

To create an integrative foundation for engineering of the next generation inexpensive
sorbent systems, this critical review addresses the existing knowledge gap in …

Previous investigations of forward osmosis (FO) concluded that thin film composite (TFC)
membranes should be designed with hydrophilic supports to help mitigate internal …

Here, we introduce regenerated fibers of chitin (Chiber), the second most abundant
biopolymer after cellulose, and propose its utility as a nonwoven fiber separator for lithium …

An evaluation of shale pore connectivity is essential for predicting the production behavior
and optimizing the development plan of shale gas. To systematically investigate the …

Substrate construction is considered as the most effective approach to alleviate the internal
concentration polarization (ICP) effect, and therefore achieves the excellent performance of …

Macroporous substrates have great potential in the development of high performance thin
film composite forward osmosis (TFC FO) membranes. This paper reports on the preparation …

Abstract The Lower Permian Collyhurst Sandstone Formation is an important gas reservoir
both offshore and onshore in the East Irish Sea Basin of north-western UK, and is …

A significant amount of the natural gas in shale formations is contained in the micro-and
mesopores as dissolved (absorbed) phase and on the surfaces of associated microcracks …

Micro-scale properties of peat pore space and their influence on hydraulic and transport
properties of peat soils have been given little attention so far. Characterizing the variation of …
