Key Points

  • The central aim is to evaluate the performance restoration of membranes affected by fouling and wetting during membrane distillation.
  • Assessment of membrane performance pre- and post-restoration
  • Evaluation of fouling and wetting impacts on desalination
  • Use of analytical methods to quantify high-purity water production
  • Membranes restored exhibited significant improvement in performance
  • High-purity water production increased post-restoration
  • Reduction in fouling and wetting metrics observed

Abstract

Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising technology for desalination due to its ability to produce high-purity water using low-grade or waste energy. However, despite its potential, MD still faces challenges...
