A Predictive Model for Convective Flows Induced by Surface Reactivity Contrast [PDF]
, 2017 Concentration gradients in a fluid along a reactive surface due to contrast in surface reactivity generate convective flows. These flows result from contributions by electro and diffusio osmotic phenomena. In this study we have analyzed reactive patterns

Aquaporin, forward osmosis and biomimetic membranes
General physiology and biophysics, 2013 Aquaporin attracted attention not only of physiologists and biophysicists, but also of chemical engineers. Here we critically analyze a paper describing aquaporin-based artificial membranes, suggested for forward osmosis-based water purification (Wang et al. 2012, Small 8, pp. 1185-1190).
