Abstract
  • Membrane processes are growing fast thanks to the efforts that scientists and industrials make for enhancing membrane performance in the different sectors membranes are applied. This development is due to the interdisciplinary studies and works in different fields, from material science in membrane preparation to the engineering aspects related to the membrane module fabrication and membrane process development. In this logic, the aim of the book is to analyse the all different aspects related the three specific membrane processes [pervaporation (PV), vapour permeation (VP) and membrane distillation (MD)] deeply studied at research level but which still have to be completely explored at industrial level. These processes have in common the fact that the species to be removed are in a vapour phase once permeating the membrane and the driving force is due to the chemical gradient (temperature, pressure). The main differences are related to i) the feed to be treated (liquid for PV and MD, but vapour in VP) and ii) the type of membrane used (porous for MD, but dense for PV and VP) making, therefore, the transport mechanism different. Furthermore, especially in case of VP and PV, the choice of the appropriate membrane is of fundamental importance for the success of the separation of interest. In the case of MD, the membrane acts only as a contactor among the phases for avoiding the contact. The book is divided in three main parts in which each process (PV, VP and MD) is described in detail considering main aspects: membrane preparation, membrane characterization, applications, integrated systems, modeling and so on. ...
