As freshwater resource decreasing rapidly due to high rate of human population growth, many researchers have done studies to develop methods for producing freshwater supply. Seawater desalination is one of the method that has the credibility to be implemented. However, conventional seawater desalination processes suffer from a number of problems related to energy efficiency and cost. In spite of this, nanotechnology has been applied to the process. In this paper, we give an overview and explanations concerning the roles of nanotechnology in seawater desalination processes which consist of pretreatment, reverse osmosis (RO), and disinfection. In addition, the comparisons between conventional and nanotechnology-applied processes as related to its efficiency and effectiveness are also provided.

“…The excessive CO formation may be hindered by increasing pressure so that the reaction (3) equilibrium will favor product formation compared with reaction (2). Hydrophilic zeolite membrane has been proven to selectively remove water from mixture by pervaporation [52][53][54]. Simplified scheme of water permeating membrane reactor for methanol synthesis is depicted in FIGURE 1.…”

“…Moreover, no addition of chemicals is needed to dope the feed mixture as in the case of extractive distillation, thus there is no contamination and a secondary separation process is not required. The selectivity and flux are determined by the difference in sorption and diffusion through the membrane (Wee et al, 2008). The membrane is a barrier between the two phases, the liquid phase -feed, and the vapour phase -permeate.…”

In this work the esterification of diethyl tartrate was studied. The research was focused on the enhancement of reversible reaction yield, which is accomplished by dewatering of the reaction mixture. The removal of water shifts the equilibrium towards the main product. Pervaporation was applied for this purpose, and results were compared to distillation. The advantages and limitations of both processes are discussed. The experimental part consists of dewatering of mixture after the reaction had reached the equilibrium, and was subsequently fed to the test rig equipped with a single zeolite membrane purchased from Pervatech B.V. Results show a significant conversion increase as a result of water removal by pervaporation. Compared to distillation no addition of organics is necessary to efficiently remove water above the azeotrope. Nevertheless, some limitations and issues which call for optimisation are pointed out. A simple numerical model is proposed to support design and sizing of the pervaporation system. Various modes of integrated system operation are also briefly discussed.
