A dual waste-to-resource innovation in nutrient enrichment and recovery from domestic black water using a sea salt bitt (SSB)-driven forward osmosis (FO) process is proposed and demonstrated.The performance of SSB as a waste-to-resource draw solution for FO was first evaluated.A synthetic SSB-driven FO provided a water flux of 25.67+3.36 L/m2 h,which was 1.5-1.7 times compared with synthetic seawater,1 M NaCl,and 1 M MgCl2.Slightly compromised performance regarding2+ reverse solute selectivity was observed.In compensation,the enhanced reverse diffusion of Mg2+ suggested superior potential in terms of recovering nutrients in the form of struvite precipitation.The nutrient enrichment was performed using both the pre-filtered influent and effluent of a domestic septic tank.Over 80％ of phosphate-P recovery was achieved from both low-and high-strength black water at a feed volume reduction up to 80％-90％.With an elevated feed pH (～9),approximately 60％-85％ enriched phosphate-P was able to be recovered in the form of precipitated stuvite.Whereas the enrichment performance of total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) largely differed depending on the strength of black water.Improved concentration factor (i.e.,3-folds) and retention (＞60％) of TKN was obtained in the high-nutrient-strength black water at a feed volume reduction of 80％,in comparison with a weak TKN enrichment observed in low-strength black water.The results suggested a good potential for nutrient recovery based on this dual waste-to-resource FO system with proper management of membrane cleaning.
