Thin-film composite (TFC) membranes are generally preferred over integrally skinned asymmetric (ISA) membranes in pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) process due to their much higher water permeability, but they cannot operate in the active layer facing feed solution (AL-FS) orientation because of poten...
