Forward osmosis is an emerging membrane technology with potential applications in desalination and wastewater reclamation, osmotic pressure gradient cross the FO membrane is used to generate water flux. In contrast with conventional pressure-driving membrane process, the advantage of FO is significant: energy saving, high solute rejection and low fouling propensity. In this study, alginic acid (AA), boving serum albumin (BSA), humic acid (HA) and tannic acid (TA) were used to investigate the influence of organic fouling. The flux changed obviously, the rejection was approving and the absorption of organics was observed in the study. Ultrasonic oscillation was employed to wipe the organics off the fouling membranes, which was intend to study the quality of absorption of organic matters.
