Experimental investigation and bottom-up life cycle assessment of forward osmosis desalination using thermo-responsive Janus microgels
Abstract
A novel Janus microgel was developed. A multiscale model integrated with life cycle assessment (LCA) was established to optimize the architecture and composition of thermoresponsive hydrogels for sustainable desalination.
