Simulation study on forward osmosis desalination process

The current scenario of Malaysia water crisis demands innovative and novel technologies that not only provide elevated throughput and productivity, but also ensures optimum energy efficiency at the same time. Launching a RM 60Million new water desalination plant is Sarawak (Choice, 2013) reflects th...
