Novel super-hydrophobic carbon nanotube-based nanomaterial for membrane distillation

Ouda M., Wadi V., Hai A., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.

Topic:

Desalination

Membrane distillation (MD) is a low-grade heat-based emerging technology found viable for seawater desalination. Membrane properties such as high hydrophobicity, mechanical strength, and thermal stability are crucial in assessing the compatibility of a membrane for use in this application. In this...Read more

SUPERHYDROPHOBIC NANOPARTICLE-COATED PVDF-HFP MEMBRANES FOR INCREASED FLUX AND FOULING RESISTANCE MEMBRANE DISTILLATION

(Corresponding) TOURNIS I., TSIOURVAS D., SIDERATOU Z., SAPALIDIS A.

Topic:

Desalination

Water is one of the most precious natural resources of the planet. Global water demand is expected to increase by 20-30% in near future, mainly due to the increase of industrial activities and domestic use. In this context, up to now, many water treatment technologies have been proposed to address...Read more
