Pressure-driven distillation for fast and selective water purification

Membrane technologies can provide efficient purification of unclear water sources to address a growing water shortage. However, when engineers develop state-of-the-art membranes, they are constrained by a lack of selectivity relative to high permeability. Current membranes also only poorly remove low-molecular weight neutral solutes and are vulnerable to degradation due to oxidants inherent to water treatment.
