Membrane distillation (MD) is an emerging technology for the desalination of brines. In some
cases, liquid penetrates into the pores of the membrane, causing pore wetting. MD's …

Membrane distillation (MD) is a rapidly emerging water treatment technology; however,
membrane pore wetting is a primary barrier to widespread industrial use of MD. The primary …

Providing clean water to a rapidly growing population is an issue that is currently getting lots
of attention to offer a sustainable solution for water scarcity. Membrane distillation (MD) is …

Fouling and wetting of membranes are significant concerns that can impede the widespread
application of the membrane distillation (MD) process during high-salinity wastewater …

Although membrane distillation offers distinctive benefits in some certain areas, ie, RO
