Hole-Type Spacers for More Stable Shale Gas-Produced Water Treatment by Forward Osmosis

Membranes, 2021
An appropriate spacer design helps in minimizing membrane fouling which remains the major obstacle in forward osmosis (FO) systems. In the present study, the performance of a hole-type spacer (having holes at the filament intersections) was evaluated in ...

Thermodiffusive desalination

Nature Communications
AbstractDesalination could solve the grand challenge of water scarcity, but materials-based and conventional thermal desalination methods generally suffer from scaling, fouling and materials degradation. Here, we propose and assess thermodiffusive desalination (TDD), a method that operates entirely in the liquid phase and notably excludes evaporation ...

Modification of Urushiol Derivatives by Liquid Crystal Epoxy Resin

International Journal of Polymer Science, 2015
Urushiol derivatives have vast potentials for using as coating materials. However, the cured coatings are quite brittle, limiting their applications. In this study, urushiol-furfural (UFUR) was chosen as an example of urushiol derivatives and a liquid ...
