  2. 1. Desalination using Membrane Distillation : Experimental and Numerical Study

    Author : Alaa Kullab; Andrew Martin; Mohammed Khayet; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Air gap membrane distillation; applications; experimental and simulation; CFD; physical modification; performance improvement;

    Abstract : Desalination has been increasingly adopted over the last decades as an option, and sometimes as a necessity to overcome water shortages in many areas around the world. Today, several thermal and physical separation technologies are well established in large scale production for domestic and industrial purposes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Waste Heat Driven Membrane Distillation for Industrial Wastewater Treatment

    Author : Imtisal-e- Noor; Andrew R. Martin; Olli Dahl; Mikel Duke; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Membrane Distillation; Experimental investigations; Techno-economic; Wastewater; Flue gas condensate; Waste heat; District heating; Nano-electronics; Cogeneration; Sustainable development; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : The European Union has placed a high priority on reaching the goals described in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This aim has provided added momentum to member-state environmental regulatory authorities to further tighten the discharge limits of industrial wastewater. READ MORE

  5. 3. District Heating-driven Membrane Distillation for Water Purification in Industrial Applications

    Author : Daniel Minilu Woldemariam; Andrew Martin; Massimo Santarelli; Wojciech Kujawski; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Membrane Distillation; District Heating; Wastewater Purification; Heat demand; Technoeconomy; Membrandestillation; Fjärrvärme; Avloppsvattenrening; Värme-behov; Teknoekonomi; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : Domestic and industrial water demands are growing globally due to population growth and rapid economic development, placing increasing strains on water resources. Wastewater effluents generated from these and other activities impact the environment and are thus subject to tightening regulation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Integration of Membrane Distillation and Solar Thermal Systems for Coproduction of Purified Water and Heat

    Author : Tirumala Uday Kumar Nutakki; Andrew R. Martin; Guillermo Zaragoza; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solar Membrane Distillation; polygeneration; TRNSYS; Integrated systems; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : In the Middle East and North Africa region fresh water resources are very scarce and theexisting sources are depleting rapidly. Desalination is the method to fulfill increasing waterdemand, and people depend mostly upon bottled water for drinking purposes. READ MORE

    Author : MD. Ershad Ullah Khan; Andrew R. Martin; Semida Silveira; Peter Hagström; Jochen Bundschuh; Erik Ahlgren; Marcus Öhman; Monica Odlare; Lasse Aistrup Rosendahl; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anaerobic digester; solar PV; polygeneration; cooking gas; gas engine; electricity; membrane distillation; arsenic safe water; Anaerobisk rötkammare; solceller; polygenerering; matlagningsgas; gasmotor; elektricitet; membrandestillering; arsenikfritt vatten; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : Despite the country's rural electrification programme, kerosene is the predominant source for lighting, and unsustainable and polluting woody biomass is virtually the only option available for cooking. The rural population also struggles with unsafe drinking water in terms of widespread arsenic contamination of well water. READ MORE
