Anis et al. (2019) Nano-zeolite 25 bars, 25,000 mg/L NaCl solution

For 0.5 wt.% nano zeolite:

A salt rejection of 99.52% with a flux increase of 34.2%

Liu and Chen (2013) Nano-zeolite Aqueous NaCl (with initial NaCl concentration of 1 mol/L 100% rejection of salt, the permeability is about 2 × 10-9 m/Pa.s
