Atmospheric water harvesting by osmotic distillation and direct contact membrane distillation using hydrophobic hollow fiber membranes
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)The use of a liquid desiccant air dehumidifier is an energy-efficient technology that can improve both indoor air temperature and humidity. However, the risk of concentrated liquid desiccant leakage into the air conditioning ... -
Control of the antagonistic effects of heat-assisted chlorine oxidative degradation on pressure retarded osmosis thin film composite membrane surface
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)During pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) operation, thin film composite (TFC) membranes are continuously exposed to chemicals present in the stream that can deteriorate the membrane's selective layer with exposure time. ... -
Efficient lithium recovery from simulated brine using a hybrid system: Direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) and electrically switched ion exchange (ESIX)
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) brine is a readily available resource hub in many countries, fulfilling the country's freshwater need by SWRO, yet lower in a concentration of high-demand elements like Li. This study outlines ... -
Enhanced lithium separation from brines using nanofiltration (NF) technology: A review
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This study investigates the dynamics of the lithium (Li) market, focusing particularly on the use of nanofiltration (NF) membranes for Li extraction from various brines. It covers a range of aqueous resources, including ... -
In Situ-Generated Reactive Oxygen Species in Precharged Titania and Tungsten Trioxide Composite Catalyst Membrane Filters: Application to As(III) Oxidation in the Absence of Irradiation
( American Chemical Society (ACS) , 2020 , Article)This study demonstrates that in situ-generated reactive oxygen species (ROSs) in prephotocharged TiO2 and WO3 (TW) composite particle-embedded inorganic membrane filters oxidize arsenite (As(III)) into arsenate (As(V)) ... -
Integrated seawater hub: A nexus of sustainable water, energy, and resource generation
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This review paper explores the potential for seawater desalination plants to operate as integrated hubs for addressing the increasing demand for water, energy, mineral resources, and foods, particularly in resource-scarce ... -
Ion-imprinted membranes for lithium recovery: A review
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This review critically examines the effectiveness of ion-imprinted membranes (IIMs) in selectively recovering lithium (Li) from challenging sources such as seawater and brine. These membranes feature customized binding ... -
Pyrite (FeS2)-supported ultrafiltration system for removal of mercury (II) from water
( Springer , 2021 , Article)This study investigated the Hg(II) removal efficiencies of the reactive adsorbent membrane (RAM) hybrid filtration process, a removal process that produces stable final residuals. The reaction mechanism between Hg(II) and ... -
A review on lithium recovery using electrochemical capturing systems
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article Review)Resource recovery from natural reserves is appealing and Li extraction from different brines is in the forefront. Li extraction by membranes is reviewed in the literature much more than electrochemical processes. However, ... -
Salinity gradient energy generation by pressure retarded osmosis: A review
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) has gained attention due to its use as a salinity gradient energy-generating membrane process. This process can convert difference in salinity between two streams into energy as it allows ... -
Sanitation and dewatering of human urine via membrane bioreactor and membrane distillation and its reuse for fertigation
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)Source separation and recovery of human urine have often been proposed as an effective way to achieve a more sustainable waste-to-resource cycle. Its high density of available macronutrients (N–P–K) in urine makes it an ... -
Submerged module of outer selective hollow fiber membrane for effective fouling mitigation in osmotic membrane bioreactor for desalination
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)This paper investigated the membrane fouling mitigation efficacy and performance of a home-made submerged module containing outer selective hollow fiber thin film composite forward osmosis (OSHF TFC FO) membrane in osmosis ...
