Forward Osmosis Systems
Low-energy membrane processes using natural osmotic gradients.

Forward osmosis (FO) draws water through a membrane using a concentrated draw solution rather than applied pressure. This reduces energy consumption compared to reverse osmosis, making it attractive for treating challenging wastewater, concentrating industrial streams, or operating in off-grid contexts with minimal power.
