Abstract. The forward osmosis (FO) process has been considered for desalination as a competitive option with respect to the traditional reverse process. interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction between two monomers (i.e., m-phenylenediamine, MPD, and 1,3,5-benzenetricarbonyl chloride, TMC) is typically used prepare selective polyamide layer that prevents salts allows water molecules pass. In th...
