Evaluating the costs of desalination and water transport
[1] Many regions of the world are facing formidable freshwater scarcity. Although there is substantial scope for economizing on the consumption of water without affecting its service level, the main response to water scarcity has been to increase the supply. To a large extent, this is done by transporting water from places where it is abundant to places where it is scarce. At a smaller scale an...
متن کاملA molecular dynamics simulation of water transport through C and SiC nanotubes: Application for desalination
In this work the conduction of ion-water solution through two discrete bundles of armchair carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes, as useful membranes for water desalination, is studied. In order that studies on different types of nanotubes be comparable, the chiral vectors of C and Si-C nanotubes are selected as (7,7) and (5,5), respectively, so that a similar volume of fluid is investigated ...

متن کاملInvestigating the Adsorption and Transport of Water in MFI Zeolite Pores for Water Desalination
The permeability of reverse osmosis membranes is limited by the diffusive transport of water across a non-porous polyamide active layer. Alternatively, fabricating a microporous active layer capable of rejecting salt ions while allowing for water transport would increase the permeability while maintaining high salt rejection. Zeolites provide a model porous network which is capable of performin...
متن کاملDesalination and Water Treatment
Electrochemical characteristic parameters such as diffusional permeability, ion transport number, fi xed charge concentration and electrical resistance for a regenerated cellulose/polypropylene-supported membrane (RC/PP sample) in contact with NaCl solutions at different concentrations were determined. The effect of the polypropylene support on mass and charge transport was estimated by compari...
