This invention uses high conductivity spacer materials on the condensate side of a permeate gap membrane distillation (PGMD) system to increase the effective conductivity of the gap and improve flux and energy efficiency. This can be used to increase the efficiency of membrane distillation processes for desalination, food processing and waste treatment applications.
