In this study, the feasibility of Forward–Reverse osmosis processes was investigated for treating oily wastewater. The first stage applied forward process to recover pure water from Sodium chloride (NaCl) and magnesium (MgCl2) salts were used as draw solutions membrane that in (FO) cellulose triacetate (CTA) membrane. operating parameters studied were: solution concentrations (0.25 – 0.75 M), o...

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a compact process that has potential for the removal of ionic and organic pollutants for recycling space mission wastewater. Seven candidate RO membranes were compared using a batch stirred cell to determine the membrane flux and the solute rejection for synthetic space mission wastewaters. Even though the urea molecule is larger than ions such as Na+, Cl-, and NH4+, the...

The process parameters of a reverse osmosis system concentrating industrial wastewater in a closed-loop operation have been studied. The model describes system solute concentration as a function of operating time and can be used to predict separation efficiency and permeate flux. The model uses seven parameters that are obtained from membrane and solution data Simulation of a simple salt system...

In this paper, removal of chromium(VI) from aqueous solution has been researched using reverse osmosis. The influence of transmembrane pressure and feed concentration on permeate flux, water recovery, permeate concentration, and salt rejection was studied. The results showed that according to the variation of transmembrane pressure and feed concentration, the permeate flux and salt rejection we...

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a compact process for the removal of ionic and organic pollutants from contaminated water. This study deals with the development of dynamic model for tubular reverse osmosis unit. The proposed model describes the unit as a series of single tubes, each tube is described by two ordinary differential equations (ODE) and the whole module is to be described by sets of differe...
