Seawater desalination by reverse osmosis (RO) is one of the solutions to meet the growing global demand for fresh water. However, at least two major challenges remain: (i) to limit the membrane fouling and (ii) to control the rejection of organic micropollutants present in the water to be treated to ensure the potability of the treated water. The RO membrane fouling can be limited by pre-treating the water to be filtered (physico-chemical treatments, microfiltration) and by increasing the hydrophilicity of the membrane materials. The control of the organic micro-pollutants’rejection requires a better fundamental understanding of the origins of transfers through polymeric RO membranes which are currently the most efficient for desalination. ...
