Nanofiltration membranes (NF) have applications in several areas. One of the main
applications has been in watertreatment for drinking water production as well as wastewater …

Organic micropollutants such as estrogens occur in water in increasing quantities from
predominantly anthropogenic sources. In water such micropollutants partition not only to …

Membrane filtration has become firmly established as a primary technology for ensuring the
purity, safety and/or efficiency of the treatment of water or effluents. In this paper, we review …

Fluid flow condition adjacent to the membrane interface plays a vital role in controlling mass
transfer and concentration polarization mechanism across the membrane. Thus, optimized …

Concentration polarization in a rectangular reverse osmosis (RCRO) and a laboratory plate-
and-frame RO (PAFRO) membrane channels were investigated using a finite-element …

Understanding ion transport in membrane materials is key to engineering and development
of desalination and water purification technologies as well as electro-membrane …

This study is a step toward integrated modeling of the evolving (in space and time) flow and
concentration fields during water desalination in membrane spacer-filled channels. Such …

The implementation of early-stage simulation tools, specifically computational fluid dynamics
(CFD), is an international and interdisciplinary trend that allows engineers to computer-test …

Nanofiltration membranes should be effective in removing hormones based on hormone
molecular size. However, the occurrence of adsorption onto the membranes results in a …

Abstract 3D printed nanofiltration (NF) composite membranes with surface patterns
minimising the impact of concentration polarisation (CP) are presented here for the first time …
