Performance optimisation of forward-osmosis membrane system using machine learning for the treatment of textile industry wastewater

Forward osmosis (FO) is an emerging low energy membrane-based technology and can be applied if the diluted draw solution (DS) is directly utilized without additional recovery/treatment. In this study, FO process was applied for the treatment of textile industry wastewater using fertilizer as DS. This paper focuses on modelling and optimisation of FO process using machine learning techniques like Response Surface Methodology (RSM), Artificial...
