Effect of Nanopatterning on Concentration Polarization during Nanofiltration

Effect of Nanopatterning on Concentration Polarization during Nanofiltration

Membranes used for desalination still face challenges during operation. One of these challenges is the buildup of salt ions at the membrane surface. This is known as concentration polarization, and it has a negative effect on membrane water permeance and salt rejection. In an attempt to decrease con...
