In this work an integrated Forward Osmosis (FO) - Nanofiltration (NF) - Membrane Distillation (MD) system is proposed for seawater (SW) desalination. The retentate stream produced by MD is used as draw solution in the FO stage; once diluted, FO permeate is fed to NF. The NF permeate, softened, is sent to SWRO train.

Abstract

In this work an integrated Forward Osmosis (FO) - Nanofiltration (NF) - Membrane Distillation (MD) system is proposed for seawater (SW) desalination. The retentate stream produced by MD is used as draw solution in the FO stage; once diluted, FO permeate is fed to NF. The NF permeate, softened, is sent to SWRO train.
