On the presence of solute-solvent transport coupling in reverse osmosis

The present work demonstrates that experimental salt passage data for reverse osmosis (RO) shows better agreement with models capturing solute-solvent transport coupling (convective coupling), especially as the applied pressure is increased. This conclusion is drawn based on five RO data sets using...
