Forward osmosis of water across ionic membranes for desalination

open access: yes, 2020
Prasad, Ajay K.Although 70% of the earth is covered by water, only 3% is available for consumption in daily human life or for industrial use. With the sharp rise in population over recent decades, the growing demand for fresh water has led to water ...
