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 ...
