Improving Seawater Desalination with Nanocomposite Membranes

Pages 26-31 | Published online: 18 Jul 2013
 

Abstract

Reverse osmosis (RO) is the leading process for brackish and seawater desalination and freshwater purification. Membrane performance characteristics translate directly to the energy intensity and capital expenditures of an RO system and, therefore, to the economics of desalination. This article examines nanocomposite RO membranes and compares their performance to other commercially available products.
