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.

Adapting to Water Scarcity in Mediterranean Greenhouse Agriculture: Insights From Digital Irrigation and Regulated Water Governance in Southeastern Spain

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate‐driven water scarcity is compounding adaptation pressures on Mediterranean greenhouse farming, particularly for small and micro agricultural firms governed by regulated water‐governance systems. This paper analyses differentiated adaptation profiles in Almería (Spain) based on an analysis of farm structure, digital irrigation adoption,

Evaluating suitability of source water for a proposed SWRO plant location

Heliyon, 2019
SWRO membranes are characterized by their ability to reject particles of larger than 0.001 μm diameter and approximately 200 molecular weight. This indicates the selectiveness of the SWRO membranes and the relative ease by which they can be clogged or ...

Co‐Catalyst/Semiconductor Interface Coupling Design for Efficient Solar‐Driven Photocatalysis

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Interfacial coupling strength is proposed as a unifying descriptor governing charge‐transfer behavior in co‐catalyst/semiconductor photocatalytic systems. This review establishes a coupling‐strength‐guided framework that correlates interface engineering strategies with charge transport pathways, electronic structure regulation, and photocatalytic ...
