Abstract
⺠Application of dual-layer hydrophobic-hydrophilic hollow fiber membranes in MD is proven advantageous. ⺠Incorporation of methanol additive improves membrane stability under continuous MD operation. ⺠Addition of methanol transforms the morphology from porous agglomerated globule into denser interconnected globule. ⺠Membrane hydrophobicity is enhanced with FSi particles additive. ⺠The existence of the hydrophilic hydroxyl group on the surface of FSi particles may induce membrane wetting.
