The Smart Water Meter: A new method to monitor fouling issue

The drinking water distribution network is a sealed and pressurized system which attached numerous biofilm and microorganism due to the long-time operation. In a foreseeable future, Oasen will adopt reverse osmosis to treat drinking water and thus the nutrient (biodegradable compounds) in drinking water will be slight. In that case, biofilms...

Hybrid membrane system for desalination and wastewater treatment: Integrating forward osmosis and low pressure reverse osmosis

Since more than 97% of the water in the world is seawater, desalination technologies have the potential to solve the fresh water crisis. The most used desalination technology nowadays is seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO), where a membrane is used as a physical barrier to separate the salts from the water, using high hydraulic pressure as the...
