Membrane distillation (MD) is an emerging thermal separation technique, using a
hydrophobic microporous membrane. Initially, the process used MF membranes with a …

Membrane distillation (MD) is a separation process based on the vapor transport across the
hydrophobic microporous membrane driven by the vapor pressure gradient across the …

Water scarcity is a grand challenge that requires continuous exploration of new desalination
technologies in order to augment the global supply of fresh water. In this context, membrane …

Tailoring the membrane to have superhydrophobicity, coupled with high porosity, adequate
pore sizes and narrow pore size distribution, and thin thickness could find potential …

Rapid population growth has resulted in imbalance in the supply and demand of fresh water
for human consumption. As the sources of fresh water from surface water and fresh …

Membrane distillation (MD) is a hybrid of thermal and membrane processes that utilizes a
hydrophobic membrane to separate volatile solutes from feed solution at fairly high …

Electrospinning is a versatile technique for the fabrication of nanofibrous, nanostructured
composite membranes for a large number of applications. This mini-review focuses on …

Abstract Globally, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) desalinates the largest capacity of
seawater but through energy-intensive thermal processes such as multi-stage flash (MSF) …

In this century, water supply requirements for drinking, urban, and industrial applications are
known as one of the most significant challenges facing humanity, so that if a sustainable …

Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising technology for seawater desalination due to the
ability to process high-salinity waters and the ability to be driven by low-grade or waste heat …
