A novel empirical method for predicting concentration polarization in forward osmosis for single and multicomponent draw solutions
Ibrar, Ibrar; Yadav, Sudesh; Altaee, Ali; Hawari, Alaa; Nguyen, Vinh; Zhou, John... more authors ... less authors ( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)Concentration polarization is one of the inherent problems in forward osmosis membrane process. A quantitative evaluation of concentration polarization is therefore vital to understand its impact on the performance of the ... -
Brine reject dilution with treated wastewater for indirect desalination
Khanafer, Daoud; Ibrahim, Idris; Yadav, Sudesh; Altaee, Ali; Hawari, Alaa; Zhou, John... more authors ... less authors ( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)The forward osmosis (FO) process was suggested as a pretreatment to a multi-stage flashing (MSF) plant to reduce the environmental impact of brine discharge and the chemicals used. Yet, there is no study investigating the ... -
Performance of the pressure assisted forward osmosis-msf hybrid desalination plant
Khanafer, Daoud; Yadav, Sudesh; Ganbat, Namuun; Altaee, Ali; Zhou, John; Hawari, Alaa H.... more authors ... less authors ( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)An osmotically driven membrane process was proposed for seawater pretreatment in a multi-stage flashing (MSF) thermal plant. Brine reject from the MSF plant was the draw solution (DS) in the forward osmosis (FO) process ... -
Recent developments in forward osmosis membranes using carbon-based nanomaterials
Yadav, Sudesh; Saleem, Haleema; Ibrar, Ibrar; Naji, Osamah; Hawari, Alaa A.; Alanezi, Adnan Alhathal; Zaidi, Syed Javaid; Altaee, Ali; Zhou, John... more authors ... less authors ( Elsevier , 2020 , Article Review)Contamination and industrial development are among the reasons for water quality deterioration beyond treatability by conventional processes. Unfortunately, conventional water and wastewater treatment technologies are not ...
