Impact of hydraulic pressure and pH on organic fouling in pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) process

open access: yesDesalination and Water Treatment, 2016
AbstractPressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is a promising membrane-based process for producing clean and renewable energy. Since the major driving force is the salinity gradient between the feed and draw solutions, PRO can operate without a large environmental footprint.

Numerical studies on the pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) system with the spiral wound module for power generation

open access: yesDesalination and Water Treatment, 2014
The pressure-retarded osmosis system with the spiral wound module for power generation has been studied numerically. The system includes draw channel, membrane, and feed-channel. The water flux and the solute flux across membrane were calculated. In addition, changes in concentration, flow rate, and pressure of channel-fluids were obtained.

Effect of fouling on performance of pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) and forward osmosis (FO) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Membrane Science, 2018
Abstract A layered model is developed to describe mass transport through fouled membranes in pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) and forward osmosis (FO) processes. This resistance-in-series model accounts for salt and water transport through the active layer, support layer, external boundary layers, and the cake layer formed by foulants.

Comparison between pressure retarded osmosis model using batch and continuous water supply sources [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is a novel renewable energy technology that generates electricity from two water sources. Due to the osmotic pressure difference, freshwater permeates across a membrane to the other side, where the high-pressure seawater ...

Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...
