Membrane Separation Technology Research, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Membrane processes are separation processes, where the transported components can be separated employing a semipermeable polymeric or inorganic membrane with a particular structure. Membrane processes can generally occur without introducing additional chemicals to the feed stream and thus separate products according to their size, charges, and Gibbs hydration energy. Therefore, the membrane process, which is a type of rate-based separation using pressure (ΔP), electric (ΔE), and stream concentration (ΔC) as driving factors, has been widely utilized in the sectors of saltwater desalination, green chemical engineering, and wastewater treatment. This Topic aims to cover the latest achievements in innovative membrane materials and membrane processes. Original research and review papers with emphasis on, but not limited to, the following topics are welcome:

1. Membrane processes for desalination, classification, and purification;
2. Fabrication of new membrane materials;
3. Membrane processes integration, optimization, and intensification;
4. Membrane simulation and process modeling.
