This study investigates the effect of intrinsic physico-chemical properties of polysaccharides and proteins on the performance of flat sheet and hollow fiber forward osmosis (FO) membranes in different modes. Results showed that the foulant hydrodynamic diameter, zeta potential and rheological behav...
