Northwestern Engineering’s Richard Lueptow has published a commentary article evaluating advances in computational modeling of water transport in membrane filters. Writing in the academic journal ...

The conversion of a large array of source waters into high quality membrane purified water is critical for addressing applications in multiple industries ranging from industrial manufacturing, ...

Desalination is the removal of salt and contaminants from water. It involves a broad range of technologies that yield access to marginal sources of water such as seawater, brackish ground- and surface ...

A novel ultrathin polymer membrane developed at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia ...

Diffusion is the movement of particles from a region where they are in high concentration to a region where they are in low concentration, and is one of the ways substances can move across the cell ...

Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from an area where they are at a higher concentration to areas where they are at a lower concentration. This is due to the random movement of the molecules.

The lateral diffusion of embedded proteins along lipid membranes in protein-poor conditions has been successfully described in terms of the Saffman–Delbrück (SD) model, which predicts that the protein ...
