The techno-economic case for coupling advanced spacers to high-permeance RO membranes for desalination

Innovations in advanced materials in recent years have produced great improvements in the permeance of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes for desalination. This work presents a simplified techno-economic analysis for a representative advanced spacer and a high-permeance RO membrane under typical feed an...
