Description
The field of membrane separation technology is presently in a state of rapid growth and innovation. Many different membrane separation
processes have been developed during the past half century and new processes are constantly emerging from academic, industrial, and governmental
laboratories. While new membrane separation processes are being conceived with remarkable frequency, existing processes are also being
constantly improved in order to enhance their economic competitiveness. Significant improvements are currently being made in many aspects
of membrane separation technology: in the development of new membrane materials with higher selectivity and/or permeability, in the fabrication
methods for high-flux asymmetric or composite membranes, in membrane module construction and in process design. Membrane separation technology
is presently being used in an impressive variety of applications and has generated businesses totalling over one billion U.S. dollars
annually.
The main objective of this book is to present the principles and applications of a variety of membrane separation processes
from the unique perspectives of investigators who have made important contributions to their fields. Another objective is to provide
the reader with an authoritative resource on various aspects of this rapidly growing technology. The text can be used by someone who
wishes to learn about a general area of application as well as by the knowledgeable person seeking more detailed information.
