Fluoropolymer Membranes for Membrane Distillation and Membrane Crystallization. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2022 Fluoropolymer membranes are applied in membrane operations such as membrane distillation and membrane crystallization where hydrophobic porous membranes act as a physical barrier separating two phases. Due to their hydrophobic nature, only gaseous molecules are allowed to pass through the membrane and are collected on the permeate side, while the ...
