An ultrathin suspended hydrophobic porous membrane for high-efficiency water desalination AITranslate
Abstract AITranslate
An ultrathin highly fluorinated porous membrane was designed for a large production of desalted water at very low energy consumption. Imprinting water droplets were used through a low thermally conductive tetra-fluoroethylene (TFE)/2,2,4-trifluoro-5-tri-fluorometoxy-1,3-dioxol (TIT) (HYFLON AD 60) solution and the generated porous nanofilm was suspended onto a polyethersulfone (PES) honeycomb texture. The very tiny fluorinated thickness together with a large number of small-shaped pores provided the membrane for enhanced anti-wetting surface properties, extremely reduced resistance to water vapor transfer and outstanding thermal efficiency. Fine materials structure-transport relations let the membrane reach unusual productivity-efficiency trade-off during water desalination via thermally driven membrane distillation. The exceptional performance affords this novel nanostructured membrane to catalyze the accomplishment of new-concept water desalination processes.
