The themes of energy conversion with low environmental impact and energy recovery, will have, in the near future, a high potential for development for naval applications. The containment of pollutant emissions can be achieved by an innovative mini gas-steam combined cycle with thermal energy cogeneration to feed the ship thermal utilities, in...

Flat sheet membranes made of polyvinyldene fluoride (PVDF) were prepared via nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS). The focus of this work was concentrated on the effect of the support structure and material on the morphology and on the distillation performance of the final membranes. To this end, various membranes were prepared casting a...
