Abstract

AbstractRecent forward osmosis–bioelectrochemical hybrid systems (FO-BESs) have been designed to simultaneously produce bio-energy and clean water from wastewater. Asymmetric forward osmosis (FO) membranes are a crucial component for determining FO-BES performance, but only cellulose triacetate (CTA NW) membranes in the same orientation have been applied to FO-BESs. In this work, both CTA NW and polyamide (PA) membranes were tested in two membrane orientations (active layer facing feed solution or anolyte and support layer facing feed solution). For an in-depth understanding of the FO membranes, properties were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, contact angle, impedance spectroscopy, and proton transport analyses. The electricity generation and water extraction in FO-BESs having these two FO membranes in different orientations were then evaluated. Based on membrane characterization, PA seemed to be a proper membrane for the FO-BES because of higher hydrophilicity, lower membrane thickness, l...
