摘要: We investigated the effect of electric field on single-file reverse osmosis (RO) water flux using molecular dynamics simulations. The is generated by introducing oppositely charged biomolecules to salt solution and pure chambers attached nanopore. Simulation results indicate that an in direction RO enhances while opposite it suppresses flux. When enhanced, dipoles are aligned field. addition led a 3 molecules ns−1 constantly maintaining dipole vectors field, this superimposed pressure driven
