Greenhouse gas emissions associated with power generation from fossil fuel combustion
account for 25% of global emissions and, thus, contribute greatly to climate change …

Membrane distillation (MD) technology has been mainly used as a treatment method for
saline or contaminated wastewater. Despite the rapid progress in material engineering and …

Membrane distillation (MD) lags behind other desalination processes such as reverse
osmosis due to relatively high energy consumption. Heating in membrane distillation forms a …

In this paper, the current and most recent applications of direct contact membrane distillation
(DCMD) are discussed. Apart from its rapidly increasing use for the desalination of highly …

Direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) is one of the commonly used configurations of
membrane distillation technology for water desalination. In the present study …

Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising technology due to its ability to function using low
temperature differences and low-quality heat sources, thus allowing it to operate on solar or …

Water distillation with solar thermal technology could be one of the most promising way to
address the global freshwater scarcity, with its low cost and minimum environmental …

In this study, the recent advances in standalone membrane technologies were investigated
for produced water treatment and reclamation. The effect of operating parameters (ie …

Scaling-induced wettinggreatly limits the application of membrane distillation (MD) for the
desalination of high-salinity feed. Although highly soluble salts (eg, NaCl) have high …

Identification and mitigation of challenges associated with membrane distillation (MD)
modeling are very crucial to the applicability of MD technology in the industry. Several …
