Forward Osmosis for Metal Processing Effluents under Similar Osmotic Pressure Gradients

Water recovery from aqueous effluents in the mining and metals processing industry poses a unique challenge due to the high concentration of dissolved salts typically requiring energy intensive methods of treatment. Forward osmosis (FO) is a lower energy technology which employs a draw solution to o...
