Comparison of fouling propensity between reverse osmosis, forward osmosis, and membrane distillation
Resistance to fouling is often cited as an advantage of emerging desalination technologies such as forward osmosis and membrane distillation over the widely-used reverse osmosis process. However, the nature and magnitude of differences in fouling behavior between these three processes are not well c...
