Studies on preparation and performance of biopolymeric membranes

Abstract

Chemical processes in general can be regarded as a sequence of a newlinepretreatment step a reaction step and a separation step transforming the newlineincoming raw materials input into the desired products output This newlinetransformation requires energy Besides the desired product often undesired newlinebyproducts or waste products will also be produced Engineering of chemical newlineprocesses is more and more carried out in the framework of the minimization newlineof energy consumption and waste disposal To fulfill the tasks of diminishing newlineenergy consumption and minimization of waste modular energy efficient and newlinehighly selective separation techniques are required newline newline
