Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, two types of thin-film composite FO hollow fibers with an ultra-thin polyamide-based RO-like skin layer on either the outer surface or inner surface of a porous hollow fiber substrate have been successfully fabricated.
