Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hollow fiber is one of the most popular membranes employed for commercial use. The separation and purification technologies based on hollow fiber membranes (HFMs) have become extremely important in various fields of application, including gas separation, pervaporation, agriculture, medicine, desalination, waste treatment, etc. The primary aim of this Special Issue is to capture the recent scientific and technological advances in the development of HFMs, and their potential applications. The Special Issue will also seriously consider the challenges and future research directions. Considering your extensive knowledge and experience in this field, I would like to invite you to contribute original research articles, as well as review articles, to this Special Issue, which will increase the basic and cutting-edge subject knowledge on hollow fibers, and may lead to the development of new technologies and innovations for their efficient and economic utilization.
Dr. Sagar RoyGuest Editor
