Membrane distillation (MD) is a rapidly emerging water treatment technology; however,
membrane pore wetting is a primary barrier to widespread industrial use of MD. The primary …

Thermal-based renewable and low-grade energy sources to operate humidification-
dehumidification (HDH) desalination systems are critically reviewed. The investigated …

A hybrid multi-stage flash and multi-stage membrane distillation system for freshwater
recovery from the rejected MSF brine is studied. The proposed system reduces …

Membrane Distillation (MD) is a thermally driven membrane separation technique that is
used for water desalination by separating water vapor from feed salty/brackish water using …

The current paper presents an experimental study on the performance of a novel air gap
membrane distillation (AGMD) desalination system where a fan blade is installed within the …

In this study, exergo-economic analysis of two layouts of humidification-dehumidification
(HDH) desalination systems driven by a vapor compression heat pump (HP) is presented …

There have been tremendous advances in membrane distillation (MD) since the concept
was introduced in 1961: new membrane designs and process configurations have emerged …

This study presents an analysis of a detailed theoretical model and optimization of a novel
large-scale multistage water gap membrane distillation (WGMD) unit with an internal gap …

A novel propeller-aided water gap membrane distillation (P-WGMD) system has been
investigated through detailed mathematical modeling, and its performance was compared …

This article presents experimental and theoretical investigations of a new configuration of an
open-air open-water (OAOW), water-heated (WH), humidification-dehumidification (HDH) …
