Forward Osmosis

A membrane process that uses natural osmotic pressure differences to draw water across a semipermeable membrane without applying external pressure.

Osmotically Assisted RO

A membrane process that applies hydraulic pressure with an osmotic gradient to recover water from high-salinity brines beyond conventional RO limits.

Zero Liquid Discharge

A treatment approach that recovers water and eliminates liquid waste by converting all residual brine into solid byproducts.

Brine Concentration

The process of removing freshwater from a saline stream to increase the salt and dissolved solids content of the remaining brine.

Products & Processes

RecovOAR™

An integrated OARO–RO process that maximizes water recovery from high-salinity brines while reducing concentrate volume.

ROAR™

A family of advanced RO elements designed to efficiently treat challenging, high-saline feedwater. Available as an individual product or as an integrated system.

ConcentratOAR™
A forward osmosis–based process that concentrates brine while reducing scaling risk and enabling stable operation at high salinities.
COAR™ Industrial
An FO-based process built to maximize recovery across high-fouling, industrial streams. Available as an individual product or as an integrated system.
COAR™ Sanitary

An FO-based process tailored to maximize recovery across cleaner streams. Available as an individual product or as an integrated system.

About FTS H2O

FTS H2O, an Aquatech company, is addressing global water scarcity and ensuring critical minerals recovery through advanced membrane technologies. As pioneers in forward osmosis (FO), FTS has successfully commercialized both FO and osmotically assisted reverse osmosis (OARO) for industrial applications. These core technologies enable FTS H2O to deliver fully integrated flowsheet solutions that maximize freshwater recovery, reduce energy demand, and foster economic opportunity through mineral recovery. Backed by Aquatech’s 45+ years of industry leadership, our solutions are engineered for performance, reliability, and accountability across the full treatment train, and are developed and validated at the Center of Excellence for membrane-driven brine concentration in Albany, Oregon.
