This volume covers the theory and applications of transport phenomena in synthetic membranes - describing modern membrane preparation methods, structures, characteristics and properties.;Examining different types of membranes and how they are used, Membrane Science and Technology: presents the physical and chemical fundamentals of membrane science; introduces such new techniques of membrane preparation as Langmuir-Blodgett, liquid crystalline, and plasma deposition; spotlights experimental procedures based on wet as well as dry processes; discusses the practical application of chemical processing and engineering; and considers biomedical uses in membrane science .;This book should be a useful resource for industrial chemists and biochemists; chemical, electrical, electronics and agricultural engineers; environmental, materials and polymer scientists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
Inorganic membrane science and technology is a new field of membrane separation technology which until recently was dominated by the earlier field of polymer membranes. Currently the subject is undergoing rapid development and innovation. The present book describes the fundamental principles of both synthesis of inorganic membranes and membrane supports and also the associated phenomena of transport and separation in a semi-quantitative form. Features of this book: - Examples are given which illustrate the state-of-the-art in the synthesis of membranes with controlled properties - Future possibilities and limitations are discussed - The reader is provided with references to more extended treatments in the literature - Potential areas for future innovation are indicated. By combining aspects of both the science and technology of inorganic membranes this book serves as a useful source of information for scientists and engineers working in this field. It also provides some observations of important investigators who have contributed to the development of this subject.
This book is a collection of papers derived from a conference on membranes held at the Columbus Laboratories of Battelle Memorial Institute in Columbus, Ohio, on October 20 and 21,1969. When a decision is made to sponsor a membrane conference, the problem immediately arises as to what aspect of the technology needs to be emphasized. There were several alternatives from which to choose. The Office of Saline Water, for example, has been sup porting for many years a tremendous volume of research on the desalination of sea and brackish water. In fact, were it not for this effort, the conference which resulted in this book could probably not have been held. Regardless, one could not easily choose to hold a conference on water desalting because the subject is adequately covered in the literature, and yearly conferences are sponsored by the funding agency. Other government agencies, specifically The National Heart and Lung Institutes and The National Institute of Arthritis and Metabolic Diseases, have supported a sizable number of research programs involving the use of membranes for biomedical devices useful in blood oxygenation and kidney augmentation or replacement. Again, these groups have their own outlets for disseminating research results. Still other choices existed among such areas as permeation processes for petroleum separations, advanced or novel membrane process concepts, or characterization of membranes - morphology, permeation prop erties, etc. , - or biological membranes. None of these areas seemed to provide just the right technological emphasis.
