Concentration Polarization in Reverse Osmosis Membranes: Effect of Membrane Splitting

We propose a simulation study in order to evaluate the effects of concentration polarization damping by splitting a single spiral-wound membrane module in two units connected in series inside the same shell. The reverse osmosis process in each unit is described by the advection-diffusion equation in...
