Nanofiltration: Principles and Applications, Second Edition, examines nanofiltration from the genesis of the field to current developments. The book covers the history of nanofiltration, preparation of membranes, module design, characterization, performance modelling and fouling. Application sections encompass nanofiltration as pretreatment and hybrid processes, water treatment, reuse, food industry, chemical processing, pulp and paper, textiles, landfill leachate, bioreactors, photocatalysis, acid recovery, trace contaminant removal and non-aqueous applications. New chapters in this edition focus on renewable-powered operation of nanofiltration, as well as a look into future materials.
