This paper summarizes the results of both bench and pilot-scale Membrane Distillation tests when treating a variety of feedwaters including thermal desalination system brines, seawater, tap water and prepared sodium chloride solutions. In addition to measuring flux & effluent quality as a function of process conditions (temperature, flows, salinity), detailed enthalpy flows and energy balances were prepared. A comparison of the flux and Performance Ratio for ?Air Gap? MD and ?Vacuum Multi-Effect? MD system designs is also presented.
