Suggested Procedure: 1. FO experiments was conducted in ambient condition using 2M NaCl and DI water as the dr
2. Next, 200 ppm BSA was used as feed solution (organic foulant model)
3.The experiment was running for 4-10 hours, and mass of the draw solutions was recorded e
Fouling test Tips: It is better to use data logger to record mass change. The data can be later extracted int
