Forward osmosis (FO) membrane was fabricated from acetylated nata de coco (NDC). Acetylation of NDC was done by subjecting it to dissolution by 2 concentrations (1% and 2%) of methylene chloride for 72-hours prior to solvent evaporation to form the FO membrane. Membranes were characterized in terms...
