A study of computational fluid dynamics on membrane module in membrane distillation

Membrane distillation is one of the recently interest rising membrane separation processes used for the separation of seawater and saline wastewater, and etc. Membrane distillation has the advantage of adopting the low grade waste energy and/or renewable energy such as solar and geothermal energy du...
