Polymeric Membrane Science and Technology
Description
Membrane science and technology are genetically heterogeneous and include a broad spectrum of membrane processes and phenomena. Recent advances in polymer and materials chemistry have introduced new methodology to membrane science. Knowledge and understanding of these conditions have led to the development of membrane science and technology.
We invite investigators to contribute original research articles as well as review articles that will advance the science and technology of membrane processes and phenomena. The primary emphasis is on preparation, functionalization or surface modification, and performance enhancing of polymeric membranes. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Membrane surface modification and its relation to membrane characterizations
- Membrane formation and structure on transport properties
- Theoretical analyses of membrane transport phenomena
- Experimental results on membrane permeation and selectivity
- Membrane fouling and its effect on membrane performance
- Membrane adsorber/membrane chromatography
- Membrane modules and their impact on device performance
- Membrane processes/applications with a focus on the role of the membrane
