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.

Effect of humic-acid fouling on membrane distillation

, 2016
Membrane distillation (MD) can concentrate non-volatile solutes or remove volatiles and dissolved gases from an aqueous feed. A microporous hydrophobic membrane provides a barrier between the hot feed and cold distillate.

Polyvinylidene fluoride membrane modification via oxidant-induced dopamine polymerization for sustainable direct-contact membrane distillation

, 2018
Porous hydrophobic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes have been extensively used in direct-contact membrane distillation (DCMD) processes. However, these PVDF membranes are vulnerable to membrane fouling and pore wetting in low surface tension ...

Transversal Otolithic Membrane Deflections Evoked by the Linear Accelerations

International Journal of Biology, 2019
Considered is the model of the transversal utricle membrane deflections evoked by the linear accelerations. The basic idea underlying this consideration is that the linear accelerations can cause both longitudinal and transversal deformations when acting along the membrane in the buckling way.

Novel method for incorporating hydrophobic silica nanoparticles on polyetherimide hollow fiber membranes for CO2 absorption in gas-liquid membrane contactor

, 2013
In a gas-liquid membrane contactor, a larger pore size can result in a lower membrane mass transfer resistance. However, the membrane pore size is usually limited by the concern of pore wetting, e.g. a large pore size means a higher wetting tendency.
