Sustainable Design and Synthesis of Hybrid RO-PRO Systems for Industrial Wastewater Treatment

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is a new technology can provide sustainable power to many processes. However, the optimal design methods of integrating this technique in practical processes are rarely reported in literatures.

Modified Solution–Diffusion Model Incorporating Rotational Kinetic Energy in Pressure Retarded Osmosis

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) is a process that allows the production of mechanical energy from the chemical potential difference between two solutions of different concentrations separated by a semi-permeable membrane.

Fabrication of a novel cyanoethyl cellulose substrate for thin-film composite forward osmosis membrane

open access: yesBlue-Green Systems, 2019
In this study, cyanoethyl cellulose (CEC) was used as a membrane material, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) was used as pore-forming agent to prepare the substrates for the thin-film composite (TFC) forward osmosis (FO) membrane for the first time.

Sodium Tetraethylenepentamine Heptaacetate as Novel Draw Solute for Forward Osmosis—Synthesis, Application and Recovery

open access: yesEnergies, 2015
Osmotic energy, as a sustainable energy source with little environmental impact, has drawn much attention in both academia and industry in recent years. Osmotically driven membrane processes can harvest the osmotic energy and thus have great potential to
