Performance of Layer-By-Layer (LbL) Polyelectrolyte Forward Osmosis Membrane for Humic Acid Removal and Reverse Solute Diffusion

Recent study claimed that forward osmosis (FO) process could handle the fouling problem due it driven force based on natural osmotic pressure. However, researchers observed that FO membrane had problem with reverse solute diffusion (RSD) of draw solution. Therefore, FO membrane properties must be im...
