This research study aimed to synthesize polybenzimidazole (PBI) FO flat sheet membranes
for seawater desalination in high temperature and salinity regions like the UAE. The …

Polybenzimidazole (PBI) is a chemically and thermally stable polymer, which is being
considered for forward osmosis (FO) seawater desalination in regions with high seawater …

To develop high-flux and high-rejection forward osmosis (FO) membranes for water reuses
and seawater desalination, we have fabricated polybenzimidazole (PBI) nanofiltration (NF) …

For the first time, the potential of polybenzimidazole (PBI) nanofiltration membrane as a
forward osmosis membrane has been investigated. PBI was chosen mainly because of its …

Forward osmosis (FO) is attracting increasing interest for its potential applications in
desalination. In FO, permeation of contaminants from feed solution into draw solution …

Abstract The poly (2, 5-Benzimidazole), known for its excellent thermochemical stability, was
evaluated as a membrane material for forward osmosis. The dope in methane sulfonic acid …

Internal concentration polarization (ICP) is a significant problem in Forward osmosis (FO)
membranes, which reduces the water flux. In order to mitigate the ICP phenomenon, rice …

Appropriate membranes are crucial to maximize the potential of forward osmosis (FO) in
water treatment. In this study, high-performance and well-constructed thin-film composite …

A novel low-cost polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membrane was synthesized by phase inversion
and fast and facile bio-inspired technique was used for substrate modification of a thin-film …

Forward osmosis is the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane. The
driving force for water permeation through the membrane is the difference in osmotic …
