Vacuum membrane distillation membrane contactors.
Microporous hydrophobic membranes are used to separate the aqueous stream from a gas phase kept under vacuum.
This md con uration is termed vacuum membrane distillation vmd.
The driving force of the process is a partial vapour pressure difference commonly triggered by a temperature difference.
