Membrane Technologies for Biohydrogen Production and Purification: Current Trends and Future Developments in Bio-Membranes focuses on the introduction, analysis, and application of membrane technologies for biohydrogen production, purification, storage, and transport. The book provides comprehensive coverage of emerging membrane-based technologies for the production and purification of biohydrogen by integrated engineering approaches with a special focus on novel membrane-based techniques for maximizing biohydrogen yields. It details recent developments in materials, design, and engineering aspects of membranes-assisted biohydrogen technology, illustrating their advantages over conventional systems, improved performance, and industry potential. The book sheds light and gives a broad, but very detailed, view from the point of view of scientists, researchers, students, and industrial engineers working in the field of biohydrogen and its technology transfer from laboratory to industry. It also includes an exclusive chapter on case studies of pilot-scale demonstrations of membrane-assisted biohydrogen production and purification, assuring the industrial potential of the book's topic. This makes it a key reference for experts and R&D managers interested in the industrial development of biohydrogen production as well as academic researchers and postgraduate students working in the wider areas of membrane technology and biohydrogen technology.
