1. A method for solid and water recovery from pre-processed plant waste material, comprising the following steps:
subjecting the pre-processed plant waste material through a forward osmosis system against a draw solution to produce a dilute draw solution and a wet solid rich fraction;
wherein the wet solid rich fraction is further used as organic matter;
processing the dilute draw solution through a reverse osmosis system to produce clean water and a recharged draw solution;
subjecting the clean water to a filter to produce potable water;
returning the recharged draw solution back to a forward osmosis filter; and
wherein heat energy from the pre-processed plant waste material is captured from the forward osmosis step.
