Effect of scale deposition on surface tension of seawater and membrane distillation

High liquid entry pressure (LEP) is one of the desired characteristics of a membrane distillation (MD) membrane. Maintaining LEP above operating feed pressure conditions is critical to prevent permeate quality worsening by saline feed liquid passage through the membrane. Air gap membrane distillatio...
