••
TL;DR: A survey of polymers considered for such applications is provided in this paper, where a solution diffusion model is used as a framework for discussing structure/property relations in polymers related to water and salt transport properties.
573 citations
••
TL;DR: This review attempts to give the readers insights into the difficulties of incorporating inorganic nanomaterials into the organic PA layer whose thickness usually falls in a range of several-hundred nanometers and shows new possible approaches to overcome these challenges in TFN membrane fabrication.
570 citations
••
TL;DR: Forward osmosis (FO) is a membrane treatment process that was investigated at bench scale to determine its feasibility to concentrate centrate under both batch and continuous operating conditions, and results demonstrated that high water flux and high nutrient rejection could be achieved.
559 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, the energy requirements of ammonia-carbon dioxide forward osmosis (FO) desalination are predicted by the use of chemical process modeling software (HYSYS), where the FO process is modeled using single or multiple distillation columns to separate solution solutes from the product water for solute recycling within the FO system.
