Exergy and Economic Analysis of Hybrid Mechanical Vapor Compression and Membrane Distillation
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hybridization of two or more desalination processes has been identified as an attractive option for improved energy efficiency and recovery rate. To appropriately assess the performance enhancement of hybrid desalination systems, an integrated approach for energy, exergy, economic, and environmental investigations should be adopted. This study

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Diesel vehicle‐derived NOx is a major pollutant, and NH3‐SCR with Cu‐SSZ‐13 is the mainstream abatement technology. In this study, vitamin C (Vc) was used as a crystal growth regulator to successfully synthesize Cu‐SSZ‐13‐Vc0.3 via the hydrothermal method. Experimental results demonstrate that the introduction of Vc significantly optimizes the

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A new type of thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane was synthesized by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) top layer on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate via dip‐coating. The synthesized TFC and TFN membranes (PC/PVA TFC and PC/PVA‐CNC TFN membranes) were evaluated using contact angle measurement, field ...
