Modern Water forward osmosis system

What is it?

Modern Water offers a Forward Osmosis process. The process uses a recirculating osmotic agent, which is a draw solution with the capacity to attract water molecules through a forward osmosis membrane from a feed solution (e.g. sea water). The forward osmosis process consists of two stages:1. The feed water is fed under low pressure to the forward osmosis membrane. The osmotic agent, on the other side of the membrane draws fresh water from the feed solution (due to the difference in osmotic pressure between the 2 solutions). The fresh water dilutes the osmotic agent.2. The permeate is extracted from the system. Pure water is removed from the dilute osmotic agent (which is regenerated and reused in the first stage). The regeneration can be achieved in different ways depending on the properties of the osmotic agent chosen.
