Performance of Commercial Asymmetric Cellulose Acetate Membrane Compared to Polydopamine Modified Thin Film Composite Membranes for Forward Osmosis
Presented: 03/10/14
In forward osmosis applications the cellulose acetate (CA) membrane offers the best performance but carries the limitation of not tolerating a basic feed water. This characteristic eliminates the CA membrane from use with the ammonia-carbon dioxide (NH3-CO2) draw solution. Treatment of conventional reverse osmosis membrane with polydopamine improve...
Cation Exchange in Forward Osmosis: Study of pH Effects and Alternative Selective Layers to Mitigate it
Presented: 02/02/16
This paper discusses research aimed at reducing cation exchange in Forward osmosis membranes. The effect of pH and modifying the FO membrane are reported....
