Energy efficiency of permeate gap and novel conductive gap membrane distillation

This work presents numerical modeling results and flux experiments for a novel membrane distillation configuration called conductive gap membrane distillation (CGMD), as well as permeate gap membrane distillation (PGMD). CGMD has a conductive spacer in the gap between the membrane and condensing sur...
