Troubleshooting of Membrane Processes in Real Operation

Dear Colleagues,

I am pleased to announce this Special Issue of Membranes, entitled “Troubleshooting of the membrane technologies in real operation.” The topic aims to address real, common, daily, and general problems with keeping membrane technology in the operation. It is wide topic, advancing people with real experience in membrane and (but not limited to) the water treatment industry. The area includes avoiding membrane scaling, avoiding piping corrosion, sealing modules, avoiding membrane fouling, ion concentration polarization, parasitic currents, inappropriate sealing, development of spacers, problems with pretreatment, problems with endplates in electromembrane processes, gasketing, and Clean in Place.

Dr. Jaromír Marek
