Exploring the limitations of osmotically assisted reverse osmosis: membrane fouling and the limiting flux by Peters, Christian D., Li, Dan, Mo, Zijing, Hankins, Nicholas P., She, Qianhong

“…While both surface flushing and osmotic backwashing (OB) were found to be highly effective when using pure water, a full flux recovery could not be achieved when a nonpure solution was used during OB due to severe internal clogging during OB. All in all, the presented findings provided significant implications for OARO operation and fouling control.…”

High and Dry: Rental Markets After Flooding Disasters by Brennan, Mark, Srini, Tanaya, Steil, Justin

“…The effects of these disasters on access to housing and housing stability are pressing issues of social equity and urban policy. How, if at all, do disasters affect rents? We find that severe floods are associated with significant increases in rents for households renting units priced at the bottom of the rent distribution, but not the middle or the top. …”
