Over the past decades, water scarcity and security have significantly stimulated the
advances of reverse osmosis (RO) technology, which dominates the global desalination …

Lithium production has become increasingly critical for sustainable development. The
extraction of lithium from aqueous sources, particularly salt-lake brine, has become a trend …

Further reduction in energy consumption is an attractive prospect for both well-established
technologies such as reverse osmosis and electrodialysis, and for emerging desalination …

Zero emission of wastewater from coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) is one of the pathways for
cleaner electricity production. It is expected that low-cost and reliable zero liquid discharge …

Desalination is an energy intensive process requiring adequate pre-and post-treatment. The
novelty of this paper is that it jointly reviews the technologies for pre-treatment, desalination …

The Handbook of Membrane Separations: Chemical, Pharmaceutical, and Biotechnological
Applications provides detailed information on membrane separation technologies as they …

Thermoelectric power plants traditionally have required huge volumes of water to condense
steam from the turbine exhaust. The complex interdependency between water and energy …

As water shortage has increasingly become a serious global problem, desalination using
seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) is considered as a sustainable source of potable water …

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) was used for membrane preparation using the nonsolvent
induced phase separation (NIPS). In this paper, the effect of the polymer concentration in the …

Desalination activities around the world are increasing as a result of water scarcity. The
discharge of brine from desalination processes poses a significant threat to the environment …
