OPTION 2

This EU will address the main conventional membrane technologies in liquid and gas environments. With regard to liquid environments, the focus will be on baromembrane technologies such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis, as well as technologies based on electrochemical potential gradients (electrodeionization) or temperature gradients (membrane distillation). In addition, gas permeation and pervaporation for the separation of gases and/or vapors will also be presented. For all technologies, the question of choosing suitable membrane materials will be addressed and representative examples of appropriate areas of use (related to current environmental and energy issues) will be given.
