Numerical modeling of the vacuum membrane distillation process

Desalination, 2013
Abstract In this study, one-dimensional vacuum membrane distillation (VMD) model is suggested for predicting the performance of seawater desalination to evaluate the performance of hollow fiber type VMD module. The energy and momentum balance equations, as well as the heat and mass transfer equations, are simultaneously solved to determine the ...

A ballistic transport model for vacuum membrane distillation

Journal of Membrane Science, 2014
Vacuum Membrane Distillation (VMD) as other membrane distillation (MD) techniques is receiving much attention for its ability to produce drinkable water at low cost. Aiming to analyze the VMD process and particularly mass transfer through porous membranes, a ballistic flow model is developed to predict fluxes out from high aspect ratio cylindrical ...

Superhydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene nanofiber membranes prepared by vacuum sintering and their application in vacuum membrane distillation

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2020
AbstractElectrospinning‐sintering is a general strategy to fabricate polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) nanofibrous membranes. In this study, vacuum atmosphere was created in the sintering process to obtain pure PTFE fibers. The effect of vacuum pressure on fiber morphology and material component of the sintered membrane was investigated by scanning ...
