Can emerging membrane-based desalination technologies replace reverse osmosis?
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the potential alternative technologies for reverse osmosis (RO) desalination of seawater is presented, and the major recent advancements in each field are discussed, such as higher salt rejection (CDI, MD), higher recovery of water (MD), fewer pre-treatment stages (MD, FO), and the ability to use low-grade energy (MD and FO).

PIM-1 Membranes Containing POSS - Graphene Oxide for CO2 Separation
Sajjad Mohsenpour,Ahmed W. Ameen,Sebastian Leaper,Clara Skuse,Faiz Almansour,Peter M. Budd,Patricia Gorgojo +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , PIM-1 mixed matrix membranes were fabricated with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) and graphene oxide (GO) functionalized with POSS (GO-POSS), and tested for CO 2/N2 (single gas) and CO2/CH4 (1:1, v:v gas mixture).
Immobilized graphene oxide-based membranes for improved pore wetting resistance in membrane distillation
TL;DR: In this paper , a tri-layer immobilized graphene oxide (GO) membrane is synthesized with superior performance when compared to current commercial membranes, meaning that MD can be used for a new range of wastewater applications.
