Reverse osmosis eliminates contaminants from feed water or unfiltered water when pressure forces it through a semipermeable membrane. Water flows from the more concentrated side (more contaminants) of the RO membrane to the less concentrated side (fewer contaminants) to provide clean drinking water. RO and nanofiltration membranes are usually used as a filtration method to eliminate numerous types of dissolved solids (large molecules and ions) from solutions by smearing pressure to the solution when it is on one side of a selective membrane. RO membranes are generally positioned as crossflow filters, where the high velocity of the wastewater along the filter retains the flow turbulence, which helps control the thickness of the solids on the filter and decreases plugging of the filter.

A membrane bioreactor works on an advanced wastewater treatment technology, which integrates membrane separation with biological wastewater treatment. It is a combination of a suspended growth biological treatment method and an activated sludge, including membrane filtration equipment, usually low-pressure ultrafiltration (UF) or microfiltration (MF) membranes. The membranes are used to execute the critical solid-liquid separation function. In activated sludge systems, this is usually achieved using tertiary and secondary clarifiers along with tertiary filtration. The two common types of membrane bioreactor systems are gravity-driven or vacuum and pressure-driven systems. Gravity-driven or vacuum bioreactors are immersed and usually use flat sheet or hollow fiber membranes installed in either the bioreactor or subsequent membrane tank. Pressure-driven systems are in-pipe cartridge systems situated on the exterior of the bioreactor.

The global luxury fashion market is significantly gaining momentum with the rise in the number of high-net-worth individuals worldwide. Also, factors such as the growing popularity of luxury fashion products among millennials and Generation Z, increasing brand loyalty among customers, and growing association of luxury brands with greater social acceptance are driving the market growth. Additionally, the rising adoption of advanced technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) by the fashion industry and the ever-increasing penetration of digital channels across developing markets are providing significant growth opportunities for vendors in the market.

Over the past years, cleaning products have become part and parcel of a consumer’s life. Consumer awareness is also growing every year, which is why manufacturers are focusing on elevating the quality of cleaning products with the best possible environmental conditions. Today's consumer is not just concerned about maintaining hygiene or cleanliness at a personal level but also keen on reducing the chances of infections in his/her surroundings. So, to fulfill the hygiene needs at home as well as at commercial places, different ingredients are used in cleaning products.

AI in healthcare has enormous and far-reaching potential, from mobile training solutions to drug discovery, which fall within the realm of machine learning. Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare refers to the use of complex algorithms that are supposed to perform certain tasks automatically. When researchers, doctors, and scientists input data into computers, newly developed algorithms can review, interpret, and even suggest solutions to complex medical problems. It helps divide the vast area of healthcare into two main categories: clinical (patient care) and administrative (the operational foundations that keep the healthcare system running). Machine learning is already being applied in a transformative way in each of these three areas. This will only accelerate in the next few years.

Healthy sex life is a human aspect that has a massive impact on one’s overall wellness. Continuous efforts are being made to spread the awareness of sexual wellness. With end-users getting more educated, along with incremental advancements in technology enabling people to explore the healthy aspects of their sexual life, the concept of sexual wellness has started to achieve significant recognition worldwide.

Human Resources (HR) encompasses the entire scope of labor, including establishing, cultivating, and managing the employer-employee relationship. Businesses can be small, medium-sized, or large, and depending on the size, the right workforce is needed to keep things running properly. As a result, the necessity for labor optimization is becoming apparent, as it aids in the efficiency of operations. Workforce optimization accomplishes this by matching skills and resources to a specific job, allowing the HR manager to analyze an employee’s contribution and performance, recording performance data in a structured format to aid decisionmaking, tracking work progress, and identifying missed goals. This aids in the identification of an employee’s strengths and limitations.

Plastics have become an inseparable part of modern lifestyle since their formation. Plastics are used for packaging, building and construction, automotive, consumer goods, electronics, and medical devices. To make plastics usable and to increase their processability, plastic additives are required to modify polymer resin. This helps in enhancing several characteristics that manifold the value of plastic materials. Various types of additives such as flame retardants, heat stabilizers, lubricants, and slip additives, blowing agents, antistatic agents, antioxidants, and light stabilizers are used for the modification of polymer resins.

Intravenous (IV) therapy helps to deliver medications, fluids, and other nutrients directly into the body through veins. IV therapy is used during lifesaving therapeutic treatment and in wellness treatment. Since ancient times, blood therapy has been around, and blood has been viewed as a therapeutic substance. However, lack of proper understanding of blood types, infectious agents, and the absence of ideal materials such as plastics held back IV therapy for centuries. Later, IV therapy became the fastest way of delivering blood products, medications, vitamins, or other vital fluids. IV therapy is usually provided to the patient with the help of an intravenous catheter, either through an injection with a syringe or infusion.

Oral health is a vital part of overall general health, and therefore, good oral health is indicative of overall wellness. Most diseases start from the oral site and spread to the entire body. Although some of these oral infections are preventable, some are not, and therefore, taking care of oral health is of paramount importance. The lack of proper oral hygiene accelerates the growth of microbes and causes various dental disorders, such as halitosis and dental caries.
