Abstract

Forward osmosis membranes having high water flux and minimum reverse solute flux are the ideal membranes for forward osmosis process. In this work, we report the use of a LbL surface modification strategy to fabricate a novel positively charged FO membranes. The main purpose of this work was to synt...

In this work, we report the use of a LbL surface modification strategy to fabricate a novel positively charged FO membranes. The main purpose of this work was to synthesize an effective selective layer onto a commercial PES ultrafiltration membrane, which functioned as a support layer, to provide the best performance for treatment of brackish water. The new membranes containing a mixing ratio of 0.1 MPDADMAC: 0.001 MCMCNa in the polyelectrolyte complex exhibited the best performance in terms of minimum reverse solute flux and acceptable water flux as compared to that for membranes containing a mixing ratio of 0.1 MPDADMAC: 0.01 MCMCNa.
