In DESOLINATION, modelling and small-scale testing activities will target the optimization of all steps of hybrid membrane separations. First, NF membranes will be used to reduce fouling and scaling effect in FO. Then, the FO separation membrane will be fine-tuned to ensure control over high water flux in combination with low reverse flux from the draw to the feed solution and thus maximize the efficiency and use of the osmotic pressure difference between the seawater and the draw solution. Lastly, the MD separation membrane needs to optimize the removal of pure water from the draw solution and must therefore be adapted to the chemical and physical properties of the draw solution designed for thermal heat recovery, as well as to the temperature and pressure conditions required for the VMD recovery process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">AGENDA<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">09:00 &#8211; Welcome (Prof. Frank Lipnizki, Lund University, Sweden)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">09:05\u00a0 &#8211; Prof. Takeo Yamaguchi (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan): <strong>Modification of antifouling membrane surfaces<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">09:30 &#8211; Prof. Marwa Shalaby (National Research Centre Cairo, Egypt):\u00a0 <strong>Water shortage and membrane applications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">09:55 &#8211; Prof. Sabu Thomas (Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala, India): <strong>Polysaccharide based membranes for water purification: Recent advances<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">10:20 &#8211; Prof. (assoc.)
