Abstract Suppression of osmotic distillation of water is important for the commercial scale application of gas membranes. We have equalized the water vapor pressure on either side of the membrane by increasing the temperature of the stream with the lower water vapor pressure. The experimentally determined temperature gradient is many times larger than predicted from water vapor pressure–temperature data. The larger temperature gradient may be explained by considering the heat flux across the membrane. The economic viability of adjusting the temperature of the feed and strip streams to suppresses water vapor transport depends on the additional energy costs involved.
