Membrane-based separation processes have broad applications in water and wastewater treatment, seawater desalination, food processing, ultrapure water production and energy harvest. However, the efficiency of both osmotically driven (e.g., forward osmosis, FO) and pressure-driven (e.g., reverse osm...
