Thermodynamic model for a reversible desalination cycle using polyelectrolyte hydrogels
(Corresponding) Rud O., Košovan P.
Topic:
Desalination
We propose a novel desalination scheme which employs the hydrogels as a tool to draw salt ions from a brine with low salinity to a brine with high salinity. As a driving force we use the fact that the volume of polyelectrolyte gel does depend on the surrounding salinity. While the salinity...Read more
Mixed Nanostructures/PES/ RO Membrane for Water Desalination
(Corresponding) Shalaby M., Abdallah H., Shaban A., Chetty R., Kumar M.
Topic:
Desalination
Different nanomaterials graphene, zinc nanorode and zinc nanosephere were used in membrane preparation. Polyethersulphone as a main polymer was blended with nanosoultions of these nanomaterials, then coated by composite coating layer consists of polyvinylacohol and titanium dioxide nanotubes to...Read more
Phase Diagram Modelling of a Multi-component Aqueous Solution of Katwe Salt Lake, Uganda
(Corresponding) Lwanyaga J., Kasedde H., Kirabira B.
Topic:
Desalination
A methodology is developed to compute the phase diagram of a hexary system and to determine the mineral precipitation sequence upon removal of water. The methodology is applied to construct the phase diagram and precipitation sequence of the system (〖Na〗^+,K^+)(〖Cl〗^-,〖SO〗_4^(2-),〖CO〗_3^(2-)...Read more
