  • Publication number: 20220105470
    Abstract: A pervaporation apparatus and method for liquid mixture separation are disclosed. The pervaporation disclosed utilizes an interfacial-heating membrane utilizing induction heating to provide temperature differences across the membrane for driving liquid mixture separation. The pervaporation system may include an electromagnetic induction heating device that is placed close to or encapsulated in a membrane module wherein one or more membranes with surfaces containing ferromagnetic or other induction-responsive materials. The membrane surface generates localized heat owing to the presence of a ferromagnetic composition that converts electric energy from an induction source to thermal energy. The ferromagnetic composition could include, without limitation, metals, metal alloys, composite materials, nanocomposite materials, nanoparticles, meshes, and combinations thereof.
