Integrated membrane distillation-crystallization: Process design and cost estimations for seawater treatment and fluxes of single salt solutions

The goal of this research is to design an integrated membrane distillation-crystallization (MDC) process for desalination of seawater with pure water and dry salts as the only products. The process is based on a combination of membrane distillation (MD) and osmotic distillation (OD) steps with integrated crystallization. In the first MD step...
