Permeate Flux in Ultrafiltration Membrane: A Review
Journal of Applied Membrane Science & Technology, 2017 Membrane processes exist for most of the fluid separations encountered in industry. The most widely used is membrane ultrafiltration, pressure driven process which is capable of separating particles in the approximate size range of 0.001 to 0.1 μm. The design of membrane separation processes, like all other processes, requires quantitative expressions ...
