Mechanism of Silica Nanoparticle-Induced Particulate Fouling in Vacuum Membrane Distillation

Membranes
Membrane distillation (MD) is a process driven by the vapor pressure difference dependent on temperature variation, utilizing a hydrophobic porous membrane. MD operates at low pressure and temperature, exhibiting resilience to osmotic pressure.

A novel air backwashing method for reversing wetting in membrane distillation [PDF]

, 2017
This paper describes a new method to reverse wetting of the hydrophobic membrane in membrane distillation. Pressurized air is pushed through the wetted membrane from the distillate side, thus forcing out wetted feed water, instead of merely allowing it ...

Understanding membrane pore-wetting in the membrane distillation of oil emulsions via molecular dynamics simulations

, 2018
The escalating volume of oily wastewater, particularly produced water, necessitates efficient means of treatment for the recovery of both the water and oil constituents. Towards this end, membrane distillation (MD) is a promising candidate. Unfortunately,

Metallic spacers to enhance membrane distillation

, 2018
Despite membrane distillation (MD) being well acknowledged as a green technology due to the capability to treat water using waste heat, the efficient use of this heat remains one of the biggest challenge for MD to be cost-effective.

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...
