Ultra-strong polymeric hollow fiber membranes for saline dewatering and desalination

Ultra-strong polymeric hollow fiber membranes for saline dewatering and desalination

Osmotically assisted reverse osmosis can overcome limitations of the reverse osmosis process but a strong membrane which can withstand a high hydraulic pressure is crucial. Here, the authors develop strong polymer thin film composite hollow fiber membranes with exceptionally high hydraulic burst pre...
