Penggunaan lithium dalam pembuatan baterai meningkat secara signifikan beberapa tahun terakhir. Karena peningkatan kebutuhan lithium, maka diperlukan sumber litium yang dapat di eksploitasi. Target dari penelitian ini adalah untuk memekatkan konsentrasi sebelum dilakukan proses pemisahan lainnya. Perangkat DCMD menggunakan perbedaan tekanan uap dikedua sisi membran sebagai driving force. Laruta...

Qatar’s primary source of fresh water is through seawater desalination. Amongst the major processes that are commercially available on the market, the most common large scale techniques are Multi-Stage Flash distillation (MSF), Multi Effect distillation (MED), and Reverse Osmosis (RO). Although commonly used, these three processes are highly expensive down to high energy input requirements and ...

This study proposes using membrane distillation (MD) as an alternative to the conventional multi-stage flushing (MSF) process to concentrate a semi-product of organic fertilizer. By applying a unique asymmetric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane, which was specifically designed for MD applications using a nonsolvent thermally induced phase separation (NTIPS) method, the direct contact memb...

A new class of PVDF-based membranes suitable for membrane distillation were prepared via electrospinning. The classical fiber morphology PVDF electrospun was changed to generate a beaded structure by tuning the solvent ratio and operating parameters during fabrication. Results showed that increasing N, N-Dimethylacetamide (DMAC) acetone used prepare solution, micron-sized beads can be created w...
