A numerical model is presented for a two-stage seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO)
desalination unit with spiral-wound modules. The model, which is based on the mass and …

A computer program, NanoFiltran, was developed to simulate the mass transport of multi-ionic
aqueous solutions in charged nanofiltration (NF) membranes, based on the Donnan steric …

Implementation of reverse electrodialysis (RED) is economically limited by the relatively high
ion-exchange membranes price. Additionally, the shadow effect of non-conductive spacers …

The aim of this work was the development of an explicit model to estimate the limiting current
density in the electrodialysis of dilute multi-ionic solutions. The model assumes that the …

The assessment of the concentration polarization in pressure‐driven membrane modules is
fundamental for their design and optimization. To account for the suction effect in …

A mathematical model to predict the concentration polarisation in nanofiltration/reverse
osmosis is described. It incorporates physical modelling for mass transfer, laminar …

The aim of this work was to develop a simple and accurate model for predicting the concentration
polarization index in the nanofiltration (NF)/reverse osmosis (RO) of dilute multi-ionic …

The laminar flow structure and concentration distribution in a narrow rectangular channel
simulating the feed channel of nanofiltration (NF) spiral-wound modules are investigated. The …

A numerical model based on the finite volume formulation to predict laminar flows hydrodynamics
and mass transfer of aqueous solutions (570<Sc<3200) in the feed channel of spiral-…

Experimental and numerical (CFD) results, obtained for 12 different flow-aligned spacer
structures under different hydrodynamic conditions, were investigated in order to gain insight …
