Sensitivity analyses on productivity considering (a) 4 M LiCl-based and (b) 154 mM NaCl-based aqueous solutions as feed stream, and CaCl2-based aqueous solution as draw stream. The draw solution temperature was set equal to 20 °C. The results were obtained by applying Eq. (4). The membrane characteristics used for the calculations were those of the PTFE membrane deployed in the experiments.
