The potential of thin film nanocomposite membrane in reducing organic fouling in forward osmosis process
A major limiting factor of forward osmosis (FO) membrane, particularly in pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) mode, is fouling by natural organic matters. In this work, we investigated the effect of the nanocomposite substrate on the fouling of a thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane due to organic fou...
