Robust Membranes for Sustainable Wastewater Treatment by Forward Osmosis in FOBs

Abstract

We have developed antifouling TFC membranes for use in the osmotic membrane bio-reactor (OsMBR) to treat wastewaters at forward operating bases. We proposed two different modification strategies, in-situ fabrication and post-fabrication membrane modification. In-situ fabrication modification involves fabrication of a polyamide selective layer and anchoring jeffamine, a poly(ethylene glycol) derivative.
