Journal ArticleDOI
Dual-layered electrospun nanofibrous membranes for membrane distillation
TL;DR: In this paper, a dual-layered electrospun nanofibrous membranes (DL-ENMs) were prepared using the hydrophobic polymer polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and hydrophilic one polysulfone (PSF).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of mixed solvents on the structural morphology and membrane distillation performance of PVDF-HFP hollow fiber membranes
TL;DR: In this article, the structural and morphological properties of hollow fiber membranes as well as the necessary parameters to be known for a membrane proposed for direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) were studied by different characterization techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological design of alumina hollow fiber membranes for desalination by air gap membrane distillation
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the membrane morphology on the obtained MD membrane characteristics and on air gap membrane distillation (AGMD) desalination performance were studied in order to figure out the most promising structure for MD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hollow fiber spinning experimental design and analysis of defects for fabrication of optimized membranes for membrane distillation
TL;DR: In this article, a fractional factorial design and a steepest ascent method were applied for possible fabrication of hollow fibers by the dry/wet spinning technique, and the obtained hollow fiber membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy.
