Exploring Forward Osmosis Systems for Recovery of Nutrients and Water
… This FO system took advantage of a drawback reverse solute flux (RSF) and used the reversed-fluxed Mg^{2+} for struvite precipitation, thereby accomplishing recovery of both water and nutrient. With 0.5 M MgCl2 as a draw solution, high purity struvite formed spontaneously in the feed solution …

Advancing Forward Osmosis for Energy-efficient Wastewater Treatment towards Enhanced Water Reuse and Resource Recovery
… was utilized as a regeneration-free draw solute (DS), harvesting fresh water towards direct agricultural irrigation. However, using nutrient-rich fertilizers as DS resulted in an elevated reverse solute flux (RSF). This RSF, known as the cross-membrane diffusion of DS to the feed solution, …

Preparation of juice concentrates by nonthermal processing technologies: a multiple hurdle approach
… of the membrane separation processes, such as reverse osmosis (RO) and forward osmosis (FO), as nonthermal technologies for the concentration of liquid foods and beverages. In this study, our objectives were to concentrate fruit juices using FO or a combination of RO and FO and to explore …

Understanding the Impact of High Aspect Ratio Nanoparticles on Desalination Membrane Performance
… membrane technology within one operation, reverse osmosis, has remained consistent since the late 1970s, however within the last two decades, access to nanotechnology has created a realm of study involving thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes, in which nanoparticles are incorporated into …
