| Abstract: A heat exchanger that includes a membrane of graphene oxide is disclosed,
as is a heat exchange system employing such a heat exchanger. The heat
exchanger permits the use of water from non-traditional sources, such as
waste water, brackish and sea water, in a cooling loop. Clean water and
sensible heat permeate through the membrane, simultaneously cooling and
purifying water in the cooling loop. |
