CO2 capture and storage from power plant flue gas using gas hydrate-based technologies
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure, and Society, 2019-08)The climate system is changing globally, and there is substantial evidence that subsea permafrost and gas hydrate reservoirs are melting in high-latitude regions of the Earth, resulting in large volumes of CO2 (from ... -
Time-related formation of bioactive polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) photoproducts upon interaction with TiO2 nanoparticles in the aqueous phase
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society, 2020-08)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) are environmental pollutants that possess individual photoactivity. Interactions between PAHs and TiO2-NPs can influence the environmental fate, ... -
A common structured integrated collaborative digitised (CrOsS) framework for the historic building repair and maintenance (R&M) sector
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society, 2020-07)The UK historic building repair and maintenance (R&M) sector generates £9.7 billion in output. However, challenging delivering quality R&M are project under-performance, a lack of collaborative project practices, ... -
Modelling the impact of geochemical reactions on oil recovery and scale management in chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (cEOR) flooding processes
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society, 2020-10)This research is an investigation of the impact of in situ chemical and geochemical interactions on oil recovery efficiency and inorganic scale management during chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (cEOR) flooding processes. ... -
Experimental and numerical analysis of high-speed railway infrastructure
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society, 2022-02)The demand for higher train speeds and heavier axle loads proved that the performance of ballasted tracks and conventional embankments are suboptimal. Such train loading triggers high stress levels and elevated vibration ...
