Mechanical vapor compressio--Membrane distillation hybrids for reduced specific energy consumption
The energy efficiency of membrane distillation (MD) systems is low when compared to other thermal desalination systems. This leads to high water production costs when conventional fuels such as natural gas are used. In MD, separation of pure product water from feedwater is driven by differences in v...
