Evaluation of Pervaporation and Nanofiltration Membranes for Water Recovery From Thermo‐Responsive Draw Solution

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Integrating thermo‐responsive draw solutions with suitable water‐recovery technologies could enable more efficient hybrid desalination. This study compares pervaporation and nanofiltration, revealing key trade‐offs between water productivity and polymer retention and providing guidance for future FO‐based brine treatment systems.

Desalination technology in the Canary Islands, 1990 [PDF]

, 1992
The total production capacity of desalination plants in the Canary Islands is 212,000 m3/d. Brackish water plants, with 39,000 m3/d capacity, use membrane units of different sizes. Sea water plants include MSF, VC and RO units.
