Forward Osmosis in Wastewater Treatment Processes
Acta Chimica Slovenica, 2017 In recent years, membrane technology has been widely used in wastewater treatment and water 30 purification. Membrane technology is simple to operate and produces very high quality water 31 for human consumption and industrial purposes.

Modelling Forward Osmosis Treatment of Automobile Wastewaters [PDF]
Membranes, 2019 Forward osmosis (FO) has rarely been investigated as a treatment technology for industrial wastewaters. Within this study, common FO model equations were applied to simulate forward osmosis treatment of industrial wastewaters from the automobile industry.

Reverse osmosis and forward osmosis fouling: a comparison [PDF]
Discover Chemical Engineering, 2021 AbstractOur previously reported exploration (Journal of Membrane Science 565 (2018) 241–253) on the differences between fouling in reverse osmosis (RO) and forward osmosis (FO), used alginate as a foulant with initial conditions that ensured that the starting fluxes were the same.

Eco-friendly forward osmosis membrane manufacturing using dihydrolevoglucosenone
Results in Engineering, 2022 Semipermeable membranes are generally synthesized using solvents which harm the environment and human health. Common organic solvents like n-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMA), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) have ...

"Breakthrough" osmosis and unusually high power densities in Pressure-Retarded Osmosis in non-ideally semi-permeable supported membranes [PDF]
, 2017 Osmosis is the movement of solvent across a membrane induced by a solute-concentration gradient. It is very important for cell biology. Recently, it has started finding technological applications in the emerging processes of Forward Osmosis and Pressure ...

On the understanding and feasibility of “Breakthrough” Osmosis [PDF]
, 2019 Osmosis is the movement of solvent across a permselective membrane induced by a solute-concentration gradient. Now in ‘Forward Osmosis’ it is empirically observed that the diffusion of the solute is counter to that of the solvent i.e. there is so-called “

Recycled reverse osmosis membranes for forward osmosis technology
Desalination, 2021 An alternative use of end-of-life reverse osmosis (RO) membranes is proposed for forward osmosis (FO) application as recycled FO (RFO) membranes and transformed recycled FO (TRFO) membranes. Different passive cleaning protocols in pilot plant and laboratory scale were followed using sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) at different concentrations and exposure ...

Forward osmosis (FO)-reverse osmosis (RO) hybrid process incorporated with hollow fiber FO
npj Clean Water, 2021 Currently, desalination is limited by high energy consumption and high operational and maintenance costs. In this study, a new concept of a hollow fiber forward osmosis (HFFO)-based infinity desalination process with minor environmental impacts (free ...

Exploring the differences between forward osmosis and reverse osmosis fouling [PDF]
, 2018 A comparison of alginate fouling in forward osmosis (FO) with that in reverse osmosis (RO) was made. A key experimental finding, corroborated by membrane autopsies, was that FO is essentially more prone to fouling than RO, which is opposite to a common ...
