Ceramic Membranes for Reaction and Separation is the first
single-authored guide to the developing area of ceramic membranes.
Starting by documenting established procedures of ceramic
membrane preparation and characterization, this title then focuses
on gas separation. The final chapter covers ceramic membrane
reactors;- as distributors and separators, and general engineering
considerations.
* Chapters include key examples to illustrate membrane synthesis,
characterisation and applications in industry.
* Theoretical principles, advantages and disadvantages of using
ceramic membranes under the various conditions are discussed where
applicable.
