CHAPTER ELEVEN – Design of Membrane-Separation Systems

摘要: This chapter provides an overview of the use membrane-separation systems for environmental applications. The mainly focuses on reverse osmosis (RO) which can be used technologies. Pressure-driven membrane technologies are categorized and modeling design techniques discussed as a representative technology. most common driven by pressure. essence pressure-driven process is to selectively permeate one or more species through membrane. include microfiltration, ultrafiltration, osmosis, pervaporation, gas/vapor permeation. operating principles, hollow-fiber reverse-osmosis "HFRO" system, system designs multiple RO modules also discussed. has gained significant commercial acceptance; it finds its application in number fields such water purification, demineralization, In industrial applications, network (RON) employed separation task. problem synthesizing systematic procedure designing optimal RON described chapter.
