Using ethylene glycol to enhance water vapour permeation for gas dehumidification. Abstract In the present study, ethylene glycol (EG) was incorporated into hydrophilic poly(ether‐b‐amide) matrix membranes to enhance the membrane performance for gas dehumidification (e.g., H2O/N2, H2O/CH4, and H2O/CO2 separations). Exploiting EG as a hygroscopic agent,

Assisted reverse electrodialysis : a novel technique to decrease reverse osmosis energy demand [PDF]
Assisted reverse electrodialysis (ARED) was introduced as a pre-desalination technique for seawater reverse osmosis (RO) for drinking water production. ARED is comparable to an additional applied pressure along the osmotic pressure in pressure assisted ...

Gas transport and separation with ceramic membranes. Part I: Multilayer diffusion and capillary condensation [PDF]
Multilayer diffusion and capillary condensation of propylene on supported γ-alumina films greatly improved the permeability and selectivity. Multilayer diffusion, occurring at relative pressures of 0.4 to 0.8 strongly increased the permeability of 6 ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial electrochemical technologies (METs) enable separation of ammonium from nutrient‐rich waste streams, such as sludge return liquors, using bioanodes that consume organic matter to generate electrical current. Quantification of ammonia recovery performance in pilot scale METs treating real wastes under industrially relevant ...

ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common and a major contributor to increased morbidity and early mortality in people with sickle cell anemia (SCA). Urine albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (uACR) is recommended to identify patients with SCA‐related CKD but its utility in predicting long‐term kidney dysfunction remains unclear in this patient ...
