Sea and brackish water desalination through a novel PVDF-PTFE composite hydrophobic membrane by vacuum membrane distillation

Abstract The present study aims to evaluate the performance of porous hydrophobic Polyvinylidene fluoride − Polytetrafluoroethylene (PVDF-PTFE) composite membranes for desalination by vacuum membrane distillation (VMD) technique. The effect of operating parameters such as feed NaCl concentration (10...
