Microfiltration studies using low cost ceramic membranes

Abstract

In the past two decades significant advances in membrane technology research have been reported Amongst various membrane applications proposed so far microfiltration MF and ultrafiltration UF are the most significant in chemical and biochemical processes Polymeric and ceramic membrane materials are the most relevant materials used for MF and UF membrane processes While polymeric membranes are inexpensive and are prone to a greater degree of fouling ceramic membranes are expensive and p
