Tis book concentrates on atomic force microscopy (AFM), a method recently - veloped to study the surfaces of synthetic polymeric membranes. AFM is becoming a very important tool for the characterization of synthetic polymeric membranes. Te development of membranes of improved performance depends on the exact kn- ledge of the morphology of a thin selective layer that exists at the surface of the m- brane. Te control of the morphology of the selective layer is crucial for the design of synthetic polymeric membranes. With a relatively short history of only twen- ?ve years, AFM has ?rmly...

This book describes the tremendous progress that has been made in gas membrane separation based both on inorganic and polymeric materials. Materials discussed include polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs), metal organic frameworks (MOFs), carbon molecular sieves, DDR zeolites, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), and the NOTT201and NOTT220 membranes as well as other novel materials. This broad survey of gas membranes covers material, theory, modeling, preparation, characterization ( for example, by AFM, IR, X-ray diffraction, Electron spin resonance, Positron annihilation spectroscopy), tailoring of...

Realizing that water, energy and food are the three pillars to sustain the growth of human population in the future, this book deals with all the above aspects with particular emphasis on water and energy. In particular, the book addresses applications of membrane science and technology for water and wastewater treatment, energy and environment. The readers are also offered a glimpse into the rapidly growing R & D activities in the ASEAN and the Middle East regions that are emerging as the next generation R & D centers of membrane technologies, especially owing to their need of...

Membrane Technology for Water and Wastewater Treatment, Energy and Environment provides information to assess the quantity and quality of current research and development activities in the ASEAN region, especially on membrane science and technology, which is recognized as one of the most powerful tools to solve environmental and energy problems. The book also reflects upon the Middle East region, where research on water treatment is growing due to scarcity of water. It includes: * information on the latest developments of novel membranes for water and wastewater treatment * an...
