Advanced Functional Membranes for Microfiltration and Ultrafiltration

In the era of freshwater scarcity, world seeks to limit overexploitation all accessible resource and also recover potable water by treating wastewater. Various domestic, agricultural industrial activities lead in generating high amount wastewater from which can be recovered for human needs. Over many years, conventional filtration process has gained success some extent effluents treatment disposal. Yet, improvement is necessary advanced order make whole handy cost-effective. The functionality membrane enhanced incorporating polymers with novel functions separation methods like microfiltration (MF) ultrafiltration (UF) reclaiming wastewaters, catalysis biomedical applications. This book chapter mostly focuses on use different polymeric substances MF UF preparation their application various sectors. Basic principle, manufacturing techniques membrane, design i.e., synthesis as designed feedstock, surface modifications, synergistic fabrication functionality, antifouling antibacterial properties are discussed.
