Forward osmosis membrane modular configurations for osmotic dilution of seawater by forward osmosis and reverse osmosis hybrid system

Water Research, 2018
This study evaluates various options for full-scale modular configuration of forward osmosis (FO) process for osmotic dilution of seawater using wastewater for simultaneous desalination and water reuse through FO-reverse osmosis (RO) hybrid system.

Electro-Forward Osmosis

Environmental Science & Technology, 2019
The impact of ion migration induced by an electrical field on water flux in a forward osmosis (FO) process was examined using a thin-film composite (TFC) membrane, held between two cation exchange membranes. An applied fixed current of 100 mA (1.7 mA cm-2) was sustained by the proton flux through the TFC-BW membrane using a feed of 34 mM NaCl, and a ...

Desalination by the forward osmosis: Advancement and challenges

Science of The Total Environment, 2023
Forward osmosis (FO) has become a promising membrane technology for desalination and water treatment due to its simplicity, low energy consumption, and low fouling tendency compared to pressure-driven membrane processes. Therefore, the advancement in FO process modelling was one of the main objectives of this paper.

Forward osmosis extractors

Desalination, 1976
Abstract Osmosis occurs when two solutions of differing osmolar concentrations are separated by a membrane permeable to the solvent but not (or nearly not) to the solutes. The paper derives the relationship between the kinetics and design parameters of systems designed for the purpose of applying this process to problems such as agricultural water ...

Rejection of pharmaceuticals by forward osmosis membranes

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2012
Rejection of four pharmaceutical compounds, carbamazepine, diclofenac, ibuprofen and naproxen, by forward osmosis (FO) membranes was investigated in this study. For the first time, the rejection efficiency of the pharmaceutical compounds was compared between commercial cellulose triacetate (CTA) based membranes and thin film composite (TFC) polyamide ...

Ultrasonication assisted forward osmosis concentration of pomegranate juice and comparison with forward osmosis

open access: yesJournal of Food Engineering
The internal concentration polarization creates major challenges in forward osmosis (FO) concentration process as the issue roots a substantial reduction in transmembrane flux crosswise the membrane.

Biofouling in forward osmosis and reverse osmosis: Measurements and mechanisms

Journal of Membrane Science, 2015
Abstract We have investigated biofouling behavior in forward osmosis (FO) and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane systems. Analysis of these two systems was done via comparison of biofilm structure and membrane permeate water flux decline. Experiments were performed using a model wastewater solution inoculated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa in laboratory ...

Design methodology for forward osmosis system

Environmental Science and Pollution Research
Forward osmosis (FO) is an emerging process in the field of water/wastewater treatment. Water treatment using the FO process will address the ongoing problem of water scarcity. The commercial application of the FO system is very limited due to several issues like low water flux, concentration polarization, draw solution availability and regeneration ...
