Growing uncertainty in the future availability of freshwater sources has led to an increase in
installations for desalination of seawater. Reverse osmosis (RO), currently the most widely …

Water resources are getting limited, which emphasises the need for the reuse of wastewater.
The conventional waste (water) treatment methods such as reverse osmosis (RO) and multi …

As a promising desalination technology, membrane distillation is expected to be developed
continuously due to its wide application and low sensitivity to salt concentration in the feed …

Desalination and wastewater treatment technologies require an effective solution for brine
management to ensure environmental sustainability, which is closely linked with efficient …

This work addresses the feasibility of a previously proposed hybrid desalination system
comprising multiple effect evaporation (MEE) and membrane distillation (MD) processes …

A novel hybrid system primarily consisting of a photovoltaic module (PVM) and a direct
contact membrane distillation (DCMD) is proposed, where the relatively long wavelength …

Three different modifications of the reversal multi-stage flash (MSF) plant are proposed and
compared. One configuration consists of hybrid MSF and membrane distillation (MD) …

Experimental investigations of an air gap membrane distillation (AGMD) unit were carried
out to study the energy-saving by heat recovery. The spiral air gap membrane module in the …

Couplings of forward osmosis (FO) with reverse osmosis (RO) or membrane distillation (MD)
are investigated at the water-energy nexus. The treatment of low and hypersaline feed …

In order to gradually and efficiently harvest the exhaust heat, a novel hybrid system model
containing a phosphoric acid fuel cell and a direct contact membrane distillation is …
