Abstract:
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.<P>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.<P>Features of this book:<P>- Examples are given which illustrate the state-of-the-art in the synthesis of membranes with controlled properties<P>- Future possibilities and limitations are discussed<P>- The reader is provided with references to more extended treatments in the literature<P>- Potential areas for future innovation are indicated.<P>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.
