Comparative performance of nanofiltration and forward osmosis membranes in a lab-scale forward osmosis membrane bioreactor [PDF]
Journal of Water Process Engineering, 2019 Abstract Nanofiltration (NF) and commercial HTI Forward Osmosis (FO) membranes were tested in a live membrane bioreactor (MBR) for performance comparison. Inorganic draws (NaCl, Na3PO4), surfactants (TEAB, SDS), and polyelectrolytes (PDAC, PGBE) were all tested as draw solutes; water flux, reverse solute transport (RST), toxicity and viscosity were ...

Thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis membrane prepared by graphene oxide embedded PSf substrate [PDF]
Journal of Particle Science and Technology, 2016 One of the limiting factors in good performance of forward osmosis (FO) membranes is the internal concentration polarization (ICP). To reduce ICP, thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis (TFN-FO) membranes were fabricated by adding different amounts of ...
