As water scarcity intensifies globally, innovative technologies are needed to ensure adequate supply and optimize treatment. Water processes based on osmosis, the natural diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane, have generated growing interest for their efficiency, reliability, and environmental sustainability. Engineered osmosis methods like forward osmosis (FO) and pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) utilize optimized membranes […]

Reverse osmosis is a crucial process in wastewater treatment, particularly for its ability to remove contaminants and impurities on a molecular level. This process, which involves forcing water through a semi-permeable membrane, has become an integral component in managing wastewater effectively. By filtering out salts, organic contaminants, and pollutants, reverse osmosis helps in reclaiming water […]

Microfiltration plays a crucial role in modern wastewater treatment, merging the effectiveness of membrane technology with the biological treatment of waste. It operates on a simple premise: using physical barriers to remove suspended particles from the water. These barriers are typically in the form of membranes with small pores that allow water to pass through […]
