Effect of membrane fouling on fertilizer-drawn forward osmosis desalination performance
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Fertilizer-drawn forward osmosis (FDFO) has garnered immense attention for its application in the agricultural field and its potential to reuse wastewater sustainably. Membrane fouling, however, remains to be a challenge ...
Membrane distillation: recent technological developments and advancements in membrane materials
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article Review)
Membrane distillation (MD) is a novel desalination technology that has potential to produce distilled quality water from high salinity brine streams. The driving force for MD is the vapor pressure difference across a ...

(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
High salinilty wastewater and carbon dioxide are major hurdles in implementing a sustainable desalination technology. This study proposes an electrodialysis (ED) technique for onsite utilization of desalination reject brine ...
Simultaneous treatment of reject brine and capture of carbon dioxide: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article Review)
The ongoing expansion of industries results in the increased emission of various pollutants into the environment, contributing to the rapid deterioration of air, water, and soil quality. Notable pollutants addressed in ...
Carbon-Constrained and Cost Optimal Hybrid Wind-Based System for Sustainable Water Desalination
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
Seawater desalination is one of the prominent solutions to cope with the water crisis. Suppling demanded energy and high investment and operation costs have been the most critical challenges facing the sustainable development ...
Reduced titania nanorods and Ni–Mo–S catalysts for photoelectrocatalytic water treatment and hydrogen production coupled with desalination
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
This study presents a ternary hybrid solar desalination process coupled with photoelectrocatalytic water treatment and H2 production in a single device. The desalination of brackish water in the desalination cell is initiated ...
Effect of fin configuration parameters on performance of solar still: A review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Drinking water is a necessity not only for humanity but also for the all living organisms available in the earth today. But the availability of the potable water is not in abundant amount; hence clean water is scarce in ...
Impact of high turbidity on reverse osmosis: Evaluation of pretreatment processes
(
Desalination Publications
, 2020 , Article)
This study evaluates the performance of sand filtration (SF) and ultra-filtration (UF) as pretreat-ment processes for reverse osmosis (RO) for seawater with turbidities of 4.8, 23.2, and 99.7 NTU. For seawater with a ...

(
AL SHARQ STRATEGIC RESEARCH
, 2023 , Book chapter)
Desalination is expected to grow across the Middle East and
North Africa due to increased water scarcity. The cost of desalinated water
has decreased significantly over the last decades, but it has not reflected
the ...
