Development and Characterization of Low-Cost Flat Sheet Ceramic Membranes for Water Desalination by Membrane Distillation KU Leuven
This thesis is concerned with the development and characterization of low-cost flat sheet ceramic membranes for water desalination by membrane distillation. The research covers the beneficiation and characterization of kaolin clay and metakaolin grafted membranes with 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane (PFAS). In addition, state-of-the-art research findings on solar-powered membrane technologies for water purification are presented and ...
