• Relating performance of thin-film composite forward osmosis membranes to support layer formation and (2011, background): “orward osmosis (FO), a subset of osmotically driven membrane rocesses is appealing because it requires no applied hydraulic ressure and has a low membrane fouling propensity [2].”
• Thin-film composite forward osmosis membranes with novel hydrophilic supports for desalination (2012, background): “Moreover, FO may offer the advantages of higher rejections to a wide range of contaminants and lower membrane fouling propensities and higher water recovery compared to pressure-driven processes [2,20–22].”
• Novel cellulose ester substrates for high performance flat-sheet thin-film composite (TFC) forward osmosis (FO) membranes (2015, background): “Comparing FO to pressure-driven reverse osmosis (RO) and thermally-driven multi-stage flash distillation (MSF) processes, FO is attractive due to (1) lower fouling propensity; [4,5] (2) higher water recovery; (3) mild operating conditions and (4) lower energy consumption if using glucose and fertili”
