Introduction Water scarcity is becoming a major global problem as the world’s population continues to grow and climate change affects water availability. As a result, there is an increasing need for new and innovative technologies to treat water and make it safe for consumption. Thermally responsive hydrogels are one such technology that shows great promise […]
Introduction Water purification is essential for maintaining clean and safe drinking water. With the increasing levels of pollution and contaminants in our water sources, there is a growing need for innovative and sustainable purification methods. One such method that is gaining momentum is biomimetic water purification. Biomimicry is the practice of mimicking natural processes and […]
As water scarcity intensifies globally, innovative technologies are needed to ensure adequate supply and optimize treatment. Water processes based on osmosis, the natural diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane, have generated growing interest for their efficiency, reliability, and environmental sustainability. Engineered osmosis methods like forward osmosis (FO) and pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) utilize optimized membranes […]
