Apparatuses, systems, and method for filtration

A system for recovering water from an aqueous stream, the system comprising:

• a filtration housing comprising:
• an feed solution inlet configured to receive a feed stream;
• one or more ion exchange resin doped with at least one metal oxide, the one or more ion exchange resin comprising a surface layer, an inner layer, and a plurality of pores adapted to receive water molecules, wherein at least one of the plurality of pores extends from the surface layer to the inner layer;
• and
• a concentrated solution outlet configured to receive a concentrated stream;
• and
• an evaporation unit configured to blow air in contact with the one or more ion exchange resin.

A method for recovering water from an aqueous stream, the method comprising:

• receiving an inlet aqueous stream comprising water and having a solute concentration level of about 1,000 mg/L to about 300,000 mg/L;
• producing a concentrated aqueous stream by contacting the inlet aqueous stream with an ion exchange resin configured to extract water from the inlet aqueous stream, the ion exchange resin comprising a plurality of pores adapted to receive water molecules;
• ceasing the contact of the ion exchange resin with the inlet aqueous stream and the concentrated inlet aqueous stream;
• and
• evaporating at least a portion of the water contained in the ion exchange resin using an evaporation unit.
