A predictive model for the assessment of the temperature polarization effect in direct contact membrane distillation desalination of high salinity feed
Manawi, Yehia M.; Khraisheh, Majeda A.M.M.; Fard, Ahmad Kayvani; Benyahia, Farid; Adham, Samer ( Elsevier B.V. , 2014 , Article)Temperature polarization is one of the major sources responsible for flux drop in membrane distillation systems due to the reduction in the driving force across the membrane. The present study offers a predictive model ... -
Effect of operational parameters on distillate flux in direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD): Comparison between experimental and model predicted performance
Manawi, Yehia M.; Khraisheh, Majeda; Fard, Ahmad Kayvani; Benyahia, Farid; Adham, Samer ( Elsevier B.V. , 2014 , Article)Membrane distillation (MD) is a thermally driven process where hydrophobic membranes are used to separate saline hot feed solution and cold stream of water and allow water to evaporate due to temperature difference. This ... -
