Red Fruit Juice Concentration by Osmotic Distillation: Optimization of Operating Conditions by Response Surface Methodology [PDF]

Membranes, 2023
Osmotic distillation (OD) was implemented at laboratory scale to concentrate a red fruit juice produced from a blend of blood orange, prickly pear, and pomegranate juice. The raw juice was clarified by microfiltration and then concentrated by using an OD

Osmotic Membrane Distillation Crystallization of NaHCO₃

Energies, 2022
A new crystallization process for sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) was studied, proposing the use of osmotic membrane distillation crystallization. Crystallization takes place due to the saturation of the feed solution after water evaporation on the feed side,

Simulation of mass transfer in hollow fiber used for concentration of juices by osmotic distillation [PDF]

Heliyon, 2019
A bi-dimensional diffusion mathematical model is proposed to study mass transfer in hollow fiber used for the concentration of juices by osmotic distillation (OD). The mathematical model was solved using the Finite Volume Method (FVM).

Concentration of noni juice by means of osmotic distillation

Journal of Membrane Science, 2009
Abstract Osmotic distillation (OD) or osmotic evaporation (OE) is a promising membrane process generally applied to concentrate solutions under isothermal conditions. In this work, this process was applied to concentrate commercial noni juice ( Morinda citrifolia ). Several nutraceutical properties have been reported for noni-derived products, mainly
