🚰 DCMD Desalination (SolarSpring / Aquastill PTFE Hollow Fiber, Flux 15-30 LMH, 65°C Heat)

Direct Contact Membrane Distillation (DCMD) Calculator

Size commercial direct contact membrane distillation modules (SolarSpring / Aquastill): utilize low-grade thermal waste heat ($65^circ ext{C}$) to drive vapor diffusion across hydrophobic porous PTFE/PVDF membranes ($15 ext{ to }30 ext{ LMH}$ distillate flux), desalinating hyper-saline brines, and potable water yields.
