Advanced membranes-from fundamentals and membrane chemistry to
manufacturing and applications
A hands-on reference for practicing professionals, Advanced
Membrane Technology and Applications covers the fundamental
principles and theories of separation and purification by
membranes, the important membrane processes and systems, and major
industrial applications. It goes far beyond the basics to address
the formulation and industrial manufacture of membranes and
applications.
This practical guide:
* Includes coverage of all the major types of membranes:
ultrafiltration; microfiltration; nanofiltration; reverse osmosis
(including the recent high-flux and low-pressure membranes and
anti-fouling membranes); membranes for gas separations; and
membranes for fuel cell uses
* Addresses six major topics: membranes and applications in water
and wastewater; membranes for biotechnology and chemical/biomedical
applications; gas separations; membrane contractors and reactors;
environmental and energy applications; and membrane materials and
characterization
* Includes discussions of important strategic issues and the
future of membrane technology
With chapters contributed by leading experts in their specific
areas and a practical focus, this is the definitive reference for
professionals in industrial manufacturing and separations and
research and development; practitioners in the manufacture and
applications of membranes; scientists in water treatment,
pharmaceutical, food, and fuel cell processing industries; process
engineers; and others. It is also an excellent resource for
researchers in industry and academia and graduate students taking
courses in separations and membranes and related fields.
