Engineering of Membrane Gas Separation Processes: State of The Art and Prospects

Membrane processes are today one of the key technologies for industrial gas separations and show growing interest for future use in sustainable production systems. Besides materials development, dedicated engineering methods are of major importance for the rigorous and most efficient design of membrane units and systems. Starting from approaches based on simplified hypotheses developed in the 5...

Membrane deformation and separation

Biological membranes are highly dynamic (e.g., during cell division, organelle biosynthesis, vesicular transport, and neurotransmitter release). They can be shaped into protein-coated transport vesicles or tubules and undergo regulated fusion. The life of transport vesicles depends on highly specific and tightly regulated protein machineries, which not only shape the donor membrane into nascent...

The Application of Membrane Distillation for Broth Separation in Membrane Bioreactors

The possibility of applying membrane distillation to support the fermentation process was investigated. The capillary polypropylene membranes were assembled in the membrane modules. The studies were carried out using the standard solutions containing the compounds frequently occurring in the broths such as ethanol, citric, acetic and lactic acids, glycerol and 1,3-propanediol. The performance o...
