Summary: This study evaluated the performance and boron rejection of a single-stage seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) system under variable operating conditions. Results showed differences in boron rejection and water production between different membrane elements. When designing RES-powered SWRO systems, consideration should be given to the safe operating range of boron concentration and the variation of membrane permeability coefficients.

Summary: This study investigated the simultaneous removal of boron from aqueous solutions, organic matter from industrial wastewater, and energy production using a Microbial Desalination Cell (MDC). The modified MDC cell with 3D cubic electrodes showed promising results in boron and organic matter removal efficiencies, as well as power density under optimum operating conditions. The use of 3D electrodes was found to be a promising improvement to conventional configurations, with comparable removal efficiencies and energy production in a more compact electrode structure.

Summary: The study focused on increasing the maximum recovery ratio of brackish water RO desalination plants by using a cationic ion-exchange resin to exchange Ca2+ with Mg2+ and Na+ ions in the raw water, and regenerating it with seawater. Through simulations, the goal of reducing [Ca2+] and enriching the product water with Mg2+ was achieved at no additional cost. The maximal recovery ratio was shown to be raised to 89.2% with a cost reduction of -$0.23 per additional m3 of desalinated water produced.

Summary: Inland brackish water desalination plants typically use reverse osmosis for water production, but face challenges in disposing the reject stream. Membrane distillation offers a solution to improve performance by recovering clean permeate and reducing concentrate volume. Barite precipitation was utilized to remove sulfate from BWRO concentrate, enhancing water recovery efficiency and preventing interference with MD operations.

Summary: The study introduces a novel electrosorption-based boron removal technology using a bipolar membrane (BPM) between porous carbon electrodes, showing its potential to overcome the limitations of current methods. The mechanism of boron removal is confirmed to be electrosorption rather than adsorption. The effect of applied voltage on the process efficiency is evaluated, and the BPM-electrosorption system is compared with flow-through electrosorption, demonstrating advantages in boron sorption capacity and energy consumption. Overall, the BPM-electrosorption system shows promising boron removal capability.

Summary: Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) is a mature technology that has evolved significantly, but boron removal remains challenging. A new RO transport model combining irreversible thermodynamic theory and solution-diffusion theory was developed to address this issue. The model was validated and used to identify key parameters and assess their impact on SWRO performance. The results showed that the convective transport of boron through the seawater membrane significantly influenced water quality and energy consumption.

Summary: The WW-SW integrated RO process is gaining attention for its energy saving capability, economic benefits, and sustainability. One advantage is the reduction of boron concentration in the RO permeate, eliminating the need for post-treatment. Design constraints related to boron removal in the system have been explored, with a range of 15,000 to 20,000 mg/L feed found to be the most appropriate. Boron rejection tests with different membranes showed a critical reduction in rejection at pressures below 20 bar, emphasizing caution in using certain membranes in the integrated system.

Summary: Air-gap membrane distillation (AGMD) is a novel method that can reduce heat requirements for water purification. However, AGMD faces challenges such as low water permeate flux and downstream performance reduction. A 2D comprehensive study using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation was conducted to examine the effectiveness of solar absorbers and spacer filaments in addressing these challenges. The results demonstrated that solar absorbers slightly increased water flux and decreased temperature and concentration polarisation effects, while cylindrical detached spacers improved water flux compared to other types of spacers. The proposed spacer-filled module significantly enhanced AGMD performance and resulted in uniform water flux throughout the module.

Summary: This study examined the impact of solar absorbers and different spacer filaments on the performance of direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD). A computational fluid dynamics model was developed to simulate water flux in DCMD modules with different designs of solar absorbers and spacer filaments. The results showed that a module equipped with a solar absorber membrane enhanced the DCMD performance better than a module with a solar absorber plate. Moreover, a module with cylindrical detached spacer filaments improved DCMD performance more than a module with rectangular and semicircular attached spacers. Finally, a module equipped with an integrated developed spacer and solar absorber membrane significantly enhanced water flux and both concentration and temperature polarisations, particularly when the inlet velocity was increased.

Summary: An improved model for multistage flash (MSF) structures is developed to assess the performance of a novel MSF configuration called MSF reversal (RV-MSF). The performance of RV-MSF is compared with conventional MSF once-through (OT-MSF) with and without brine mixing. The simplified model commonly used overestimates the required heat transfer area and underestimates the cooling water and energy requirements for the RV-MSF configuration. Rating: 7 out of 10.

Summary: This study applied and verified the MFI-UF method to predict particulate fouling in two full-scale RO plants. The results showed that the fouling rates predicted using MFI-UF measured with 100 kDa membrane had the best agreement with the actual fouling in plant A. In plant B, the fouling rates predicted based on both 10 and 100 kDa membranes agreed well with the actual fouling. However, the fouling predicted based on 5 kDa membrane was considerably overestimated for both plants due to the low surface porosity.

Summary: This study aimed to calibrate and validate the MFI-UF method to ensure accurate measurements of particulate fouling in RO. The calibration of MFI-UF using standard particles showed strong linearity for dextran solutions but lack of reproducibility. For polystyrene solutions, MFI-UF linearity was verified at higher ranges but underestimated at lower ranges. Validation of MFI-UF using natural water demonstrated strong linearity over the entire measured range. Further research is needed to calibrate MFI-UF using heterogeneous mixtures of standard particles.

Summary: This study compares three types of organic matter (AOM, BOM, and HOM) in terms of their content, fouling behavior, and removal efficiency in ceramic UF filtration. It found that the 5 kDa membrane removed more transparent exopolymer particles (TEP)/organics than the 50 kDa membrane, but had less fouling formation for all three types of organic matter. The study also revealed that AOM had the highest MFI-UF and TMP values among the three organics and exhibited high fouling potential.

Summary: Optimal spacer design, such as the proposed novel airfoil feed spacer design, plays a crucial role in enhancing filtration performance in spiral-wound modules. The airfoil spacers are found to provide steady-state and uniform flow characteristics, resulting in improved permeate flux, reduced energy consumption, and minimized biofouling development. Controlling the Angle of Attack (AOA) of the airfoil filaments allows for effective control of localized hydrodynamics based on the filtration type and operating conditions.

Summary: This study presents the concept and analysis of integrating membrane distillations with reversal once-through Multistage Flash desalination. The analysis is based on numerical simulation. The results show that integrating MD vessels into the terminal ends of the RV-MSF system can leverage thermal energy and increase the overall production rate. Hybridisation at stage one, by utilizing the energy of the MSF reject brine, has a greater impact on production rate compared to hybridisation at the last MSF stage.
