In recent years, high permeability membranes (HPMs) have attracted wide attention in seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination. However, the limitation of hydrodynamics and mass transfer characteristics for conventional spiral wound modules defeats advantage HPMs. Feed spacer design is one effective ways to improve module performance by enhancing permeation flux mitigating membrane fouling. ...

Fruit juices are traditionally processed thermally to avoid microorganisms’ growth and increase their shelf-life. The concentration of by thermal evaporation is carried out reduce volume consequently the storage transportation costs. However, many studies revealed that high-temperature operation destroys valuable nutrients aroma juice. Currently, membrane technology has emerged as an alternativ...

one of the most important concerns in tehran municipal landfill is the production of leachate and its potential for water resources pollution, this study was undertaken to examine feasibility of biological and physico/chemical treating of high-strength landfill leachate that was collected from tehran municipal landfill. average cod of the leachate in aerobic submerged membrane bioreactor is 68...

The economics membrane distillation (MD) and common seawater desalination methods including multi effect distillation (MED), multistage flash (MSF) and reverse osmosis (RO) are compared. MD also has the opportunity to enhance RO recovery, demonstrated experimentally on RO concentrate from groundwater. MD concentrated RO brine to 361,000 mg/L total dissolved solids, an order of magnitude more sa...

Salinity gradient energy (SGE) refers to the energy created from the difference in salt concentration between two streams. There are three types of SGE namely, pressure retarded osmosis (PRO), reverse electrodialysis (RED), and capacitive mixing (CapMix). All these technologies require membrane for the system to be operational. In this short review, the membranes modifications for each principl...

Ethanol / Water Separation Technology is a long-term research. LTA molecular sieve, which an industrially important desiccant as kind of zeolite sieve. It always used in the reverse osmosis method, one seawater ddesalination, and extraction industrial ethanol method world. Membrane separation technology widely cell science, human microbial military industry, battery so on. With 2 years inventio...
