Review of nanomaterials-assisted ion exchange membranes for electromembrane desalination

Automation of Ion Exchange Process Used for Desalination of Water

The problem for automation of an ion exchange process for desalination of water is considered. The paper describes first the process technology and the necessity to automate the process behaviour in order to achieve the needed quality of water with minimum consumption of resin and chemicals for regeneration. The instrumentation needed for measurement, data acquisition and control implementation...

Electrospun Membranes for Desalination and Water/Wastewater Treatment: A Comprehensive Review

Polymeric nanofbers, specifcally fabricated by electrospinning, offer viable means useful for a wide range of applications such as health, energy and environmental issues. However, among the mentioned sectors, desalination and water/wastewater treatment applications have been highlighted during the past decade. This article focuses on the present status and recent develo...

Electrodialysis of Blood Using Ion-Exchange Membranes

THE correction of electrolyte imbalance and the removal of retention products of the blood during renal failure is at present achieved by the use of artificial kidneys which permit the diffusion of solutes through a semi-permeable membrane. Several types of apparatus used successfully for hemodialysis include those described by Kolff and Watschinger (1956) and Alwall, Norviit, and Steins (1948)...
