Pressure-Driven Membrane Processes, Gel-Enhanced Polarization and Shear-Induced Diffusion

Membrane technology is part of the new generation of sustainable processes. Being low-energy consuming and environmentally friendly, it is the most efficient technology for seawater desalination and water treatment. However, the implementation of such technology is often hampered by existing techniques of process modelling and analysis. As such, this book focuses on how models can be used as a mathematical background for the algorithms of the process design, analysis, modification and optimization.
