Advanced membrane for water desalination and ion separation applications
(University of Waterloo, 2023-04-25)Population growth, contamination of fresh water, and climate change are increasing pressure on water supplies, accelerating the need for technological solutions that will improve access to clean water for drinking and ... -
Desalination of high-salinity water by membranes
(University of Waterloo, 2016-05-12)This study deals with the desalination of high-salinity water using membranes by pervaporation. The membrane performance was characterized with water flux and salt rejection. It was shown that a water flux of 1.6 kg/m²h ... -
Flowable-Electrode Capacitive Deionization for Treatment of Mining Process-Affected Water
(University of Waterloo, 2019-11-26)Water is a critical resource in the mining and resources sector. It enables the extraction and materials processing operations that underpin this primary industry, and therefore everyday life. Water’s value in mining means ... -
Graphene Based Membranes for High Salinity, Produced Water Treatment by Pervaporation Separation
(University of Waterloo, 2023-03-13)Petroleum industries generate huge volumes of wastewater that is associated with oil and gas during extraction, known as produced water. It accounts for 98% of the amount extracted, and comprises diverse pollutants of ...
