Abstract:Reverse osmosis (RO) is a worldwide applied technology (as per International Water Association, >11,000 plants as of 2015) for water desalination which facilitates salt rejection by using an applied pressure on feed side (Liu and Chen 2013). Low energy consumption and simplicity in design distinguishes RO from other separation process such as thermal distillation, vapour compression distillation and multistage flash distillation (Otitoju, Saari et al. 2018). Membrane functionality is typically associated with … Show more
