I was honored to receive last week in the ACS Spring Meeting in San Diego the James J. Morgan Early Career Award. Thank you @EnvSciTech for the nice recognition.

Ben-Gurion University in the south of Israel is mourning more than 60 students, staff and faculty who were either murdered, kidnapped or missing in the Israel-Hamas war.
@kellycobiella is in Be’er Sheva, Israel and speaks with the school’s president and a student.
Excited to share our new paper with @NirWaterLab in @EnvSciTech highlighting the adverse effect of concentration polarization on ion-ion selectivity in NF: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
Congratulations to our MSc student Mor Avidar on winning the excellent poster award in the Graduate Student Conference on Water Research in Israel @TechnionLive.

Please check our new publication in @DesalinationJ discussing how enthalpy-entropy compensation (EEC) restricts ion-ion selectivity in salt-rejecting membranes. EEC has been documented in other fields and arguments exist weather it is real or a phantom.

I was excited last week to receive the @NatureWaterJnl Prize for the excellent presentation in the Nanofiltration 2022 conference. Thank you @IamtKit members for a memorable recognition.

Thank you all ES&T reviewers - you are the BEST IN THE WORLD !! The 2021 ES&T Reviewer Awards pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs… @SSEBEatASU @ASUEngineering @ASUResearch @NEWTCenter @STEPS_STC
We invite you to check up our new critical review paper in @EnvSciTech, in collaboration with @Straub_Tony, on the application of the famous transition-state theory to explore molecular mechanisms of transport and selectivity in NF and RO membranes.

למעבדה החדשה שלי בטכניון דרוש/ה מנהל/ת מעבדה. עדיף בעלי/ות תואר דוקטור אבל לא חובה. אשמח בעזרה בהפצה.
Happy to share our new article on ion dehydration @J_Membrane_Sci - a key phenomenon governing ion-ion selectivity in membranes. We found some strong indications of dehydration, which becomes more feasible when higher temperatures or pressures are applied. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Check out our new publication exploring the mechanisms that govern water-salt and ion-ion selectivity in polyamide nanofiltration membranes. Phenomena beyond simple size and charge exclusion, as well as some surprising selectivity trends are discussed.

Excited to share our new article in @ScienceAdvances: “Intrapore energy barriers govern ion transport and selectivity in desalination membranes.” Work done with Xuechen Zhou & @wang_zhangxin in @TheElimelechLab, @JaehongKim_Yale, @johnfortner & Tuan Anh Pham @Livermore_Lab
Supported by density functional theory simulation, we demonstrate that electrostatic interactions of the permeating counterion with the fixed charges on the membrane backbone significantly hinder its intrapore diffusion.
