Mechanism of Silica Nanoparticle-Induced Particulate Fouling in Vacuum Membrane Distillation

Membrane distillation (MD) is a process driven by the vapor pressure difference dependent on temperature variation, utilizing a hydrophobic porous membrane. MD operates at low pressure and temperature, exhibiting resilience to osmotic pressure. However, a challenge arises as the membrane performance...
