Performance Evaluation and Fouling Propensity of Forward Osmosis (FO) Membrane for Reuse of Spent Dialysate. [PDF]
Membranes (Basel), 2020 The number of chronic renal disease patients has shown a significant increase in recent decades over the globe. Hemodialysis is the most commonly used treatment for renal replacement therapy (RRT) and dominates the global dialysis market. As one of the most water-consuming treatments in medical procedures, hemodialysis has room for improvement in ...

Nonthermal Concentration of Red Beetroot Juice by Reverse Osmosis and Forward Osmosis. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrRO and FO were used for nonthermal concentration of red beetroot juice. Single strength juice was concentrated by RO to 17 °Brix, and by FO to 50 °Brix; color and betalain were preserved by both processes. Overall, FO is a promising method for concentrating beetroot juice.

Electroconductive MXene-Thin-Film-Composite Membranes for Coupled Osmotic Concentration and PFAS Mineralization. [PDF]
SmallAn electroconductive MXene‐TFC membrane integrates osmotic dewatering with anodic oxidation to concentrate and mineralize PFOA at the membrane interface. The coupled AO‐PRO configuration accelerates degradation kinetics, achieves 99% rejection and up to 93% TOC removal, and lowers specific energy demand, offering a compact route for PFAS destruction ...

New concept of pump-less forward osmosis (FO) and low-pressure membrane (LPM) process. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 AbstractWe tested the possibility of energy-saving water treatment methods by using a pump-less forward osmosis (FO) and low-pressure membrane (LPM) hybrid process (FO-LPM). In this pump-less FO-LPM, permeate migrates from the feed solution (FS) to the draw solution (DS) through the FO membrane by use of osmotic pressure differences.

Removal of organic micro-pollutants (phenol, aniline and nitrobenzene) via forward osmosis (FO) process: Evaluation of FO as an alternative method to reverse osmosis (RO). [PDF]
Water Research, 2016 In this study, we have explored and compared the effectiveness of using (1) lab-fabricated forward osmosis (FO) membranes under both FO and reverse osmosis (RO) modes and (2) commercially available RO membranes under the RO mode for the removal of organic micro-pollutants.
