In this article, we present a critical review of the reported performance of reverse osmosis
(RO) and capacitive deionization (CDI) for brackish water (salinity< 5.0 g/L) desalination …

The economic impact of fouling in spiral wound membranes is not yet well explored. There
has been an established assumption that the cost of fouling in membrane processes is …

Reverse electrodialysis (RED) is a potential technology that exploits salinity gradients for
power generation to face the increasing environmental issues and the need for sustainable …

The objective of this paper is to compare, under Dutch market conditions, the energy
consumption and net costs of membrane-based advanced treatment processes for three …

The primary objective of this research is to improve the efficiency of separating oil and water
within the challenging environment of high-temperature condensate. This will be achieved …

A critical problem in seawater reverse osmosis (RO) filtration processes is biofilm
accumulation, which reduces system performance and increases energy requirements. As a …

To reduce demand and discharge, instead of industrial wastewater being not enough
treated and disposed of, it can be recycled, reused, or recovered considering well …

Providing fresh water is a serious problem in many counties due to serious water shortages
in many countries. At the same time, population growth increases the need for the freshwater …

The rapid increase in plastic consumption has accelerated microplastic pollution, raising
concerns about potential ecological and health risks. Despite the development and …

The cartridge filter (CF) as a “firewall” is crucial between pretreatment and nanofiltration (NF)
units, but CF fouling with risk has received limited attention. The systematic autopsy for CFs …
