Porosity Effect of Polystyrene Membranes on Desalination Performance: A Combined Experimental and Numerical Heat and Mass Transfer Study in Direct Contact Membrane Distillation

Membrane distillation (MD) is a thermal-based membrane operation with high potential for use in the treatment of aqueous streams. In this study, the linear relationship between the permeate flux and the bulk feed temperature for different electrospun polystyrene membranes is discussed. The dynamics...
