Natural gas exploration from unconventional shale formations, known as “shale gas,” has recently arisen as an appealing energy supply to meet the increasing worldwide demand. During the last decade, development of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fr... Read More about Desalination of shale gas wastewater: Thermal and membrane applications for zero-liquid discharge.

Novel thermal management system using mist cooling for lithium-ion battery packs (2018)
Journal Article
Saw, L. H., Poon, H. M., Thiam, H. S., Cai, Z., Chong, W. T., Pambudi, N. A., & King, Y. J. (2018). Novel thermal management system using mist cooling for lithium-ion battery packs. Applied Energy, 223, 146-158. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2018.04.042

Thermal management system is crucial for a Lithium-ion battery pack as cycle life, driving range of electric vehicle, usable capacity and safety are heavily dependent on the operating temperature. Optimum operating temperature of Lithium-ion battery... Read More about Novel thermal management system using mist cooling for lithium-ion battery packs.

Estimating degradation-related settlement in two landfill-reclaimed soils by sand-salt analogues (2018)
Journal Article
McDougall, J., Fleming, I., Thiel, R., Dewaele, P., Parker, D., & Kelly, D. (2018). Estimating degradation-related settlement in two landfill-reclaimed soils by sand-salt analogues. Waste Management, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wasman.2018.04.013

Landfill reclaimed soil here refers to largely degraded materials excavated from old landfill sites, which after processing can be reinstated as more competent fill, thereby restoring the former landfill space. The success of the process depends on... Read More about Estimating degradation-related settlement in two landfill-reclaimed soils by sand-salt analogues.
