Recent Developments in Solar-Powered Membrane Distillation

Jawed A., Nassar L., Hegab H., Merwe R., AlMarzooqi F., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic: 
Desalination
Freshwater scarcity remains one of the most crucial issues facing our world. Although the traditional membrane distillation (MD) technique can efficiently produce clean water irrespective of climate conditions, the process wastes a lot of energy. Thanks to the development of photo-thermal materials...Read more

Wetting study of PVDF - carbon nanodiscs membranes for water treatment applications via membrane distillation

(Corresponding) Tournis I., Panagiotaki K., Sideratou Z., Kouvelos E., (Corresponding) Sapalidis A.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Since 80’s, membrane distillation has been identified as a promising water treatment process in various wastewater treatments, such as desalination brine, textile, radioactive and oily wastewater.[1] The demand for membranes with stable flux and prolonged lifespan especially in challenging...Read more
